摘要

Innovation and technology are essential tools that can be widely used to ensure adequate resilience to the range of threats that small societies face. The Baltic States are often resource constrained and more vulnerable to a variety of threats, which makes innovation and technology a key factor in increasing their resilience. To strengthen their resilience, the Baltic States are innovating and deploying technologies across sectors to adapt to the changing threat landscape. This chapter analyses good practices in innovation and technology development in the Baltic States. Despite their shared history and regional cooperation, the three Baltic States have distinct strategic priorities. Estonia has positioned itself as a global leader in digital governance and cybersecurity. Lithuania has leveraged fintech and energy independence as key resilience strategies, while Latvia has focused on sustainable technologies and transportation innovations.
