Motivation
I’ve lived outside of Lithuania for majority of my life. Looking from outside, Lithuania has made incredible progress in the last 15-20 years. Yet, a lot of things are “not good enough”. That probably holds true for all countries on earth. However, I had an aspiration to contribute to significant progress in Lithuania and I’ve had that aspiration for a long time. I have a lot of friends and acquaintances who have been part of ”Kurk Lietuvai” in the previous years and I decided to give it a try myself. So here we are. Let’s go.

Disruptive technologies in Lithuania’s defence
Defence Materiel Agency under MND
The aim of the project is to develop a long-term strategy of technological priorities for the national defence system to ensure the technological advantage of the Lithuanian Armed Forces. The strategy will help the different actors in the defence sector (science, business, state institutions, the Lithuanian Armed Forces) to focus their efforts on the same goals, as well as facilitate cooperation, competitiveness and innovation development in the Lithuanian defence industry.
