You are welcome to the Joint Chamber Conference ”The Third Year of the War. Security of Latvia”.
Security today, as never before, this word is in every day of our lives. Both parents want to know what to do in an hour “X,” and businesspeople have many employees under their authority who can all be together in this hour “X.” Do we want to know more about security, the experiences of others, and our capabilities? This applies to each of us, without exception—an entrepreneur, manager, or employee!
