Rimi Baltic has recently launched Rimi Open innovations platform aiming to fund the development of PoC's and pilot projects with Baltic and European start-ups. Also, Rimi has significant experience in working with start-ups within Future HUB Accelerator Program. Therefore we invite you to join a webinar where we'll explore how cooperation between start-ups and companies works.

We'll discuss the benefits and challenges of such partnerships and the factors that contribute to success. We'll also zoom in on Rimi Baltic learnings on working with startups that are focusing on corporate responsibility.

Whether you're simply interested in this topic, or you’re a start-up looking to partner with a larger organization or a corporation interested in working with emerging businesses, this webinar will provide valuable insights and strategies for achieving a successful collaboration.

Rimi Baltic Corporate Responsibility and Communications Zanda Šadre will lead the webinar. Zanda is a Communications and sustainability professional with extensive corporate management experience.
