Starting my activity as President of Latvia, I have chosen to do my utmost to help our state to find its way in the processes of globalisation, bringing a lot of challenges. We are dealing with a world concerned with sustainable development, where a lot of people will be confronted with numerous professions disappearing as a result of an irreversible progress of technology where Artificial intelligence and smart solutions are playing a tremendous role.”
At the end he confirmed that: “We truly believe in the importance of fundamental research evolving with time in cross-disciplinary, cross-sectoral and cross-actor innovation. I personally see science as one of Latvian priorities of and wish that this work will continue in this project as well as in countless other important projects. Only together we can make sure the future will bring us a sustainable and clean planet for our descendants.”
