The Forum 2026 has come to life — through conversations, ideas, and the people who filled this city with meaning
For a few days, Riga became a global meeting point of FDI Aftercare perspectives - where curiosity led the way, and new connections quietly began. Now, we carry this forward.
After a year-long "Road to Riga" with webinars, masterclasses and seminal Forum, the Partnership with Invest in Latvia brought the 4th Aftercare Forum to new heights.

Testimonials from Participant
The Aftercare Forum is an excellent platform for exchanging experiences with other Investment Promotion Agencies (IPAs), making networking one of its main strengths. Surrounded by aftercare experts from around the world, the event provided valuable insights and new ideas that could potentially be applied in Catalonia. It also reinforced our understanding that Catalonia Trade & Investment has been implementing a strong and effective aftercare strategy for many years.
Why not host?
We have just opened the call for our next host city and partners. Interested in position your work in the front of the Aftercare happening globally?
The annual Aftercare Forum is the only global foreign direct investment (FDI) event that celebrates long-term investment. It is convened by Cities & Collaboration to foster peer learning, exchange of best practices and to grow an international community of practice centred on maximising the value foreign companies bring to a host economies.
