On December 2 during the Annual Christmas reception, AmCham awarded the most active members of this year: Medtronic, Riga Stradins University and Skaal.

The Member of the Year Award recognizes those members who have gone above and beyond in helping build a better business environment in Latvia and facilitating the Chamber's mission to foster U.S.-Latvia business ties and help make our organization stronger and better connected. 

Edgars Labsvirs, Health Policy and Market Access Manager at Medtronic: „Being active in AmCham Latvia is one of the best ways to contribute to our health care development at the system level and towards a stronger society in general. It’s a critical part of our mission in Medtronic: alleviate pain, restore health, and extend life.”

Agrita Kiopa, Vice Rector of Riga Stradins University: “We joined AmCham Latvia to promote the issues of our interest – adequate health financing, secondary use of health data, healthcare digitalization, and personalized medicine, along with other healthcare organizations.”
 

Paul Seitz, Chief Executive Officer of Skaal: “Awards are always a pleasant surprise. The team at Skaal is very appreciative of this recognition and looks forward to continuing to support the goals and objectives of AmCham. Thank you.”
