18 page PRIME Match Issue Nr. 40 INFORMATIONAL HISTORY Born in Spring of 2007, The LiSTs original purpose was to bring together quali鍖ed job-seekers with potential employers in an informal setting during monthly networking events. These events were typically held at the o鍖ces of PRIME Recruitment and in the early days, were attended by 20-30 profes- sionals. As our networking prowess grew and The LiSTs success gained momentum, we began o鍖ering participating companies to co-host the event, which gave them the possibility to promote themselves to members and other attendants. Balta pioneered this initiative and co-hosted a fruitful networking event at the Powder Tower in Rigas Old Town. The event brought over 70 people together proving the joint-hosting formula to be a roaring success. We are constantly developing and re鍖ning the B2B L!ST, o鍖ering new services to com- pensate for the ever-changing market needs. Our motto is Make business happen and the growing number of B2B L!ST members are putting this motto into practise. TYPES OF EVENTS Major L!ST In this kind of event typically, the host invites the members over for a tour of his facilities and buildings and presents the hosting com- pany further via a Power Point presentation. Besides the host company, other companies also get a chance to present themselves to the public at The Speakers Corner. The most recent Major L!ST was held at Ragnsells waste management company who showed us their new premises near 超ekava about 55 people signed up for a very interesting tour of the facilities, met the project managers and sub contractors. Focus L!ST This is an event held in your premises, where- by you invite guests and show them your products/services. We try to bring in di鍖erent people and help to network. This event is on much smaller scale than the Major L!ST and can be organized a lot faster. Recent Focus L!STs took place on September 9 at Skrivanek Language Training Centre and on November 10 at INRE Scandinavian Design . Taste L!ST This is a gourmet event where people con- verge to socialize, be entertained and simulta- neously cultivate their knowledge of the rare and exotic. Primarily, it is a tasting event where guests learn about and enjoy various beverag- es (e.g. wine, whiskey, cognac, beer) and dish- es from around the world. Because of its small format, more time is available to get to know one another and understand each others needs. Usually it runs monthly in November 2010 we visited Antica Roma where the Moz- zarella was said to be exquisite and the event so joyous that some guests bought wine, cook- ing oil and even signed up for cooking classes. Smaller groups meeting over a glass, learning new things and trying the product. SUCCESS The B2B L!ST today consists of two main types of members: job seekers and corporate clients. The aim is to gather some 300 people from all over Latvia in the B2B network. Mak- ing Business Happen is our motto and with a large network we will indeed make it happen! Already we have proven to do so, e.g. in Lat- via, as a direct result of one of the Taste L!STs, one member gained 14 new customers for a customer. Another client had 35 new custom- ers joining them, yet another member gained 22 new clients for their Services company. An overseas entity was opened in collabora- tion with two Latvian local companies and jobs were created abroad. These are but a few examples of our successes. In 2011 the L!ST will also extensively focus on the Export sector (see also page17). THE FUTURE We are always looking to expand, perhaps out of Riga and even and cross-border. One new thing on the horizon is cooperation with Tal- linn and PRIME is looking at this with a Finn- ish partner. We also had some interest from Liepaja and members there and additionally we run a LEAN Management Group Pan Bal- tics that aims to connect with companies and organizations looking at connecting to see how they can increase e鍖ciencies in their work procedures to save cost, manage waste and motivate sta鍖. THIS is PRIME Recruit- ments 鍖eld of work recruiting people who understand what they are doing for manag- ers who invest in rational thinking. How to Use The B2BL!ST to YOUR Advantage?
