Last week a small town in Lithuania called Alytus had an extraordinary event. Alytus International Innovation Centre (AIIC) was officially opened by its hosts witnessed by a large group of guests. The ribbon of the centre was cut by His Excellency Norwegian Ambassador for Lithuania Mr. Steinar Gil and one of the AIIC directors Alytus Business Angel leader Mr. Vaclovas Gostautas. Mr. Steinar Gil expressed his satisfaction that Norwegian partners play important role in a centre like this located in Lithuania. He was also happy the centre is connected with innovation because it is so important that someone takes care of implementing innovations at smaller places.

A new centre was established in Alytus by a cooperation of Public Institution Baltic Innovation Group, Alytus Business Angel and the Joint Stock Company Youth Distribution Service. The AIIC premises are 350m² and include 5 offices, a conference hall and public social space. The centre is open for other institutions too. The only condition is to be a little bit different and innovative. 16-17th September the AIIC will be officially opened. The second day will hold a seminar about cooperation on youth actions. All Innovation Circle Members are invited!

The public institution is registered in Lithuania and the headquarter is located to Alytus city. We are located within the Alytus International Innovation Center. Alytus is the regional center of Southern Lithuania, and the city is one of the owners of the institution.
