On 23 November 2022 a meeting of the members of the project Economic Integration of the Nordic-Baltic Region through Labour, Innovation, Investments and Trade (LIFT) consortium took place. The results of the second year of the project implementation were discussed during the meeting as well as the program of the webinar planned for 16 December was presented. 

Three sessions are planned at the event, during which researchers will make presentations and discussions will be held with invited experts. Mihails Hazans (University of Latvia, Latvia), Nicolas Gavoille (University of Latvia, Latvia), Liss Roosaar (University of Tartu, Estonia), Jaan Masso (University of Tartu, Estonia), Rasmus Bøgh Holmen (Institute of Transport Economics, Norway) will present their work on the session "Labour market developments in the Nordic-Baltic region" and the invited discussant is Kadri Männasoo (TalTech, Estonia). In the second session "Factors of firm performance – trade, FDI, innovation" it will be possible to hear Jaan Masso (Tartu University, Estonia), Amaresh Tiwari (Tartu University, Estonia), Giedrė Lapinskienė (Vilnius Gediminas’ University of Technology, Lithuania), Askold Podviezko (Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, Lithuania), Manuela Tvaronavičienė (Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, Lithuania), Per Botolf Maurset (Institute of Transport Economics, Norway) and the discussion will be led by Konstantins Benkovskis (Bank of Latvia, Latvia). Rasmus Bøgh Holmen (Institute of Transport Economics, Norway), Luca Alfieri (Tartu University, Estonia), Anastasia Sinitsyna (Tartu University, Estonia), Agnė Šimelytė (Vilnius Gediminas University of Technology, Lithuania) will speak in the third session "Regional integration in Baltic and Nordic countries", the discussion will be coordinated by Valdonė Darškuvienė (ISM University of Management and Economics).

Video Learning Resources Available at VILNIUS TECH: JoVE, OnArchitecture and Visible Body Suite
Members of the VILNIUS TECH community have access to three databases offering video content and interactive learning resources: JoVE, OnArchitecture and Visible Body Suite. These resources combine visual content and interactive tools to help users understand complex concepts and explore scientific methods, practical procedures and design solutions. Each platform serves a distinct purpose, enabling students, lecturers and researchers to find resources relevant to their academic and professional interests. JoVE – Scientific Research and Experiments in Video Format JoVE (Journal of Visualized Experiments) is a scientific video platform that supports learning, teaching and research. It offers thousands of videos demonstrating laboratory experiments, research methodologies and scientific procedures. Its content spans a broad range of disciplines, including the life sciences, physics, medicine, psychology, engineering, statistics and environmental science. Accompanying text and scientific article content provide additional context and help users explore topics in greater depth. JoVE is particularly useful for students seeking to connect theoretical knowledge with practical applications, lecturers looking to enrich their teaching with visual materials, and researchers exploring experimental methods and research techniques. OnArchitecture – Contemporary Architecture and Design OnArchitecture is a video library dedicated to contemporary architecture, featuring leading architects, their ideas and their completed projects. The collection includes video interviews with architects from around the world, offering insights into their creative processes, professional experience, design philosophies and built works. Users can also explore presentations of architectural projects, project descriptions and technical specifications. The platform is a valuable resource for architecture and design students, lecturers and professionals seeking inspiration, analysing design approaches or gaining a deeper understanding of contemporary architectural practice and trends. Visible Body Suite – Human Anatomy in an Interactive 3D Environment Visible Body Suite is an interactive learning platform featuring three-dimensional resources for studying human anatomy, physiology and the health sciences. Users can explore the structure of the human body, examine individual organs and organ systems, and investigate the relationships between them through detailed 3D anatomical models and other visual learning materials. This interactive approach helps users understand spatial relationships within the body and gain a clearer insight into the structure and functioning of complex biological systems. Visible Body Suite supports the study of anatomy and physiology, preparation for lectures and practical classes, and independent learning in the health sciences. Access: the content of all databases can be accessed from a personal computer connected to the VILNIUS TECH computer network via VPN. When connecting to the VPN service, two-factor authentication.
