The Baltic states (Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania) have seen a positive economic growth in the last four years. Social enterprise startups are rising, thriving and increasing. Social entrepreneurs like Sabine Sile of Latvia’s first charity shop Otra Elpa, Riinu Lepa of Tagurpidi Lavka and Estonian Social Enterprise Network, Zane Bojare of Lude, and Paavo Ala of Meditech Estonia have invested their time, money and resources to create social impact in their localities.
Social entrepreneurs in the Baltics are hopeful of the future of social entrepreneurship sprouting in their areas. It also helps to have modesty and determination, which are common traits among social entrepreneurs.
