The seeds of the North American Lithuanian Business Forum (NALB Forum) were sown in a 2019 meeting held at the Lithuanian Embassy in Washington, D.C. This gathering of Lithuanian professionals, business club representatives and diplomats served as a crucial catalyst for what we now know as NALB Forum. The 2022 inaugural in-person North American Lithuanian Business Forum in Philadelphia, held at the Union League, convened over 200 business executives, professionals, and government officials, featuring 37 speakers across diverse panels and innovator sessions. With patronage from the President of Lithuania and the Governor of Pennsylvania, the forum facilitated high-level discussions on transatlantic business opportunities, showcased success stories, and fostered collaboration between Lithuanian and North American entities. It served as a crucial platform for networking, knowledge exchange, and promoting mutually beneficial partnerships, laying a robust foundation for future NALB events.
