About the California Baltic Chamber of Commerce

Purpose

The California Baltic Chamber of Commerce is a California-based economic platform established to strengthen commercial ties between the Baltic States (Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia) and the United States, with a particular focus on California and the Los Angeles region.

The initiative began with Baltic diplomatic representation in Los Angeles and was developed in coordination with representatives of all three countries from inception, so the Chamber speaks for the Baltics as one.

For Baltic companies, the Chamber provides a structured pathway to enter, understand and scale in the U.S. market through curated access, partnerships and on-the-ground execution.
