The new Baltic chapter has gathered Estonian, Latvian and Lithuanian entrepreneurs, developers, investors, universities and users to create a local eco-system, support each other, collaborate, network and succeed. The chapter provides an environment where new ideas can raise, entrepreneurs can meet with supporters and users, while universities connect directly with the industry.

THE TEAM
Chapter President: Madara Kalnina-Kalnmale madara@thevrara.com
Madara Kalnina-Kalnmale for many years has been a part of AR/VR hardware company, leading a design from scratch to commercial product. She knows how to raise a capital in a start-up, create attention between corporates and now founded her own company RedFrog, succeeding within AR/VR industry.
“It is my pleasure to join VRARA and start to unite AR/VR community also in the Baltics. Being so many years in a pure AR hardware company with a belief that outstanding hardware will fly has led me to an understanding that without killing applications, real added value and after all without users AR/VR will never fly. Re-phrasing this - without an ecosystem a broad uptake will never happen. So, I am joining the VRARA with a scope to create this ecosystem in the Baltics, unite entrepreneurs, developers, universities and users.”
