The beginnings of the NALB Forum goes back to 2019, when American-Lithuanian business people and professional clubs met at the Lithuanian Embassy in Washington DC and decided to host the first business forum. The plan was realized in 2021 in April virtually.
The first in-person business forum was held in June 29, 2022, in Philadelphia, the Union League Club of Philadelphia. More than 200 participants and 37 speakers were involved in a day-long discussions and networking. This year, the business forum will take two-days and we hope to attract more than 300 participants from Lithuania, the US, Canada and other countries.
