“Small-budget business ideas in Latvian regions – whatever you think, think otherwise!”

One of the known phrases in the context of the creativity is: “all that could be invented is already invented” – it was said by the HEAD of THE U.S. Patent Office, Charles Duel, in 1899. Do we still need something new to be invented today, or can we use alternative approaches to the development of competitive solutions and the development of creative activity? How do i use my internal creative resources to start a small business? Work at home and export your business to all countries in the world – could it be my story? The practical side of the response will be found IN THE CREATIVE NON-WORKSHOP aimed at encouraging the people of Rezekne to see more opportunities for the implementation of new business, social, cultural, educational and other ideas for the development of their welfare, local community and economic development.
THE CREATIVE NON-WORKSHOP will be held on October 5, 2016 at the water tourism development centre “lighthouse” (Kuvapans, Gaigalavas parish, Rezekne municipality) from 17:00 – 18:30. Invited entrepreneurs and existing entrepreneurs, as well as any other interested party who wants to strengthen their competitiveness and make use of the opportunities offered by THE XXI century to improve their professional activities.
Value added at half-hour per hour:

• My internal intangible resources – what can i do without money?

• “Secret weapon” in business, culture and education
