The new version of the 'business.gov.lv' platform, recently introduced in Latvia, is designed to serve as a central hub for entrepreneurs, providing access to a variety of electronic services. This initiative is part of a broader development process that is anticipated to continue until 2030, with plans to gradually expand the range of services and digital solutions available to business owners. LIAA director Ieva Jāgere emphasized that, until now, the platform primarily featured e-services from the Investment and Development Agency of Latvia, but this update marks a significant advancement towards a unified digital contact point for business needs.

The development of 'business.gov.lv' has been supported by the European Union's Recovery and Resilience Mechanism, with the objective of making critical information more accessible and understandable for entrepreneurs. The new platform is designed to streamline the process through which businesses can apply for necessary e-services tailored to their practical requirements, ultimately enhancing user experience and accessibility.

The establishment of such a platform is crucial for Latvian authorities as it aligns with the EU's Single Digital Gateway Regulation, which mandates that information relevant to business operations must be readily available. This initiative presents both opportunities for improved service delivery and implications for compliance with EU regulations, as the Latvian government continues to position itself to better serve its entrepreneurial community.
