Dear GLL members and friends, 

It is high time to congratulate ourselves, as global community, on passing the test of pandemic! We over-achieved in sharing our money, time, skills, expertise and connections for the sake of common good, stronger global community and fulfilling togetherness. 

This GLL Monthly Newsletter edition is devoted to look into some key figures.  

As quarantine restrictions are lifting worldwide and we are entering into a holiday season, we are still hoping to summon you live in Lithuania some time this summer. Let us know about your plans in the survey above, so we could pick the date which suites the most.  

After all, GLL is all about networking and building personal ties which enables the trust! 

Faithfully yours, 
 GLL Team

Bank of Lithuania breaks the ice: first recapitalisation plan in the EU approved by the European Commission. Lithuanian Aid Fund for Business will be operating under the Ministry of Finance and is going to be launched this June. Liquidity and capital support will be available to medium-sized and large enterprises that have experienced difficulties as a result of the pandemic and whose dissolution is likely to have significant social economic consequences. The newly established fund is currently looking for:  

• Supervisory Board members (3 independent non-executives, part-time), 
• Board member (5 independent non-executives, part-time) 
• CEO (full-time).  

“Professional governance is essential success factor for this newly created structure. Thus I call on all professionals in Lithuanian diaspora not to overlook this opportunity and make the impact.” - said Marius Jurgilas, Board Member of Bank of Lithuania and Laureate of Global Lithuanian Awards.

The present day reality had hardly predictable effect of  the emergence of new Clubs of Lithuanian Professionals Worldwide.

•  New York Lithuanian Professionals not only has brought together Lithuanian and Lithuania-interested professionals for networking and interaction, it has already organised a few events that united the Clubs of the North America for fun and for learning. Do not miss the next possibilties -  EVENT CALENDAR>>
• Lithuanian Professionals in the Netherlands held their first get-together where Clubs in London and Berlin as well as GLL shared their inspirational ideas for this Club to have an explosive start.  
  

These people are united by at least two good reasons - they all are active members of Clubs of Lithuanian Professionals Abroad and they support the GLL mission of connection of global professionals worldwide and their engagement for the sake of Lithuania.
