The startup is started by Rēzekne and Viļānu.

On 23 January, the new season of the knowledge game “eruditis” was launched in the municipality of Rezekne. In this school year, ten Rēzekne municipality, Viļānu municipality, as well as students of the Eastern Latvian technology secondary school students will seek answers to questions related to Latvian culture. In four games, students will seek answers to questions about Latvian literature, cinema, theatre, music, architecture and painting.
In the first game, participants had to answer questions about Latvian literature. Erudites had to know both the writers' biography and their works and the main characters. For example, it was necessary to know that Alexander Chaka's real name was Chadarainis, that his visit to Belshevica had been raised on a number of occasions in the Nobel Prize in literature, that the author of the book “mother's milk” was Nora Iksten, that Biern, Lipsts and the antigen were characters from Ryan's play “golden horse”.
In the first round, with 31,5 points for the most erudic team, the team of the Eastern Latvian Technology Secondary School was recognised, 2 nd with 31 points ranked AT Viļānu secondary school team, while 3 th with 30.5 points – Nautrēnu High School II team. Judging by results, the game promises to be intense.
The next round of the competition will be held on 26 February. It will examine the knowledge of pupils about Latvian cinema and theatre. It should be noted that in the spring of 2019, a total of four contest cards will be cleared by the most recent team of Rezekne and Viļānu. The best will receive a gift card of 450 euros that can be spent on a target. Traditionally after the end of the competition, all participants will have the opportunity to go into a joint excursion – this time along the most beautiful places of Latvia.
