Event host
Artis Ozolins
Hosting events is my professional passion that makes my eyes sparkle. Preparation together with the client is key, and I can also help out with the event itself if necessary thanks to my extensive experience as a PR consultant. I host both in-person and online events in English and Latvian. I hone my skills weekly, hosting the radio show #DigitalasBrokastis at Latvian Radio 1 and Radio Naba, and I have gained valuable public speaking experience under the guidance of radio professionals as well acquired useful skills doing improv comedy.
Deep Tech Atelier
Deep Tech Atelier is the leading conference in the Baltics dedicated to science commercialization. It centers around global innovation trends, discoveries, business opportunities and know-how from all over the world. It has been an honor to repeatedly host this conference organized by the Latvian Investment and Development Agency in English for several days, both online and on-site in front of a large audience.
The Ignition Events
The annual 3-day hybrid event organized by the Commercialization Reactor brought together more than a hundred ambitious entrepreneurs and scientists from all over the world, both remotely and in person, to put together their skills and knowledge to create their deep-tech startups. As the event host over several years, I moderated the event and the pitch contest for investors – all in English and in close cooperation with a fantastic organizing team.
Innovation festival iNOVUSS
A vibrant innovation festival took place on Lucavsala beach over 2 days, welcoming thousands of knowledgeable and curious people in a relaxed atmosphere. The battle between different stages was fierce, so their hosts had to roll up their sleeves and compete as well. I hosted presentations, discussions and workshops in Latvian and English. This exciting 2-day event charged all participants with positive emotions!

3rd European Physics Olympiad
I want to thank Artis for hosting the 3rd European Physics Olympiad. The opening and closing ceremonies were filled with delightful humor in perfect English. Artis left an impression of experience and professionalism.
Santa Zunda
Scholarship contest for IT students
In 2016, we took on the task to organize for the first time a scholarship contest for IT students, which has traditionally included an awards ceremony. As we had little time to organize the event, we took the advice of the previous organizers to invite Artis as the event host. Artis not only contributed as an event host, but also read all the thesis papers and prepared questions for the students to improve the engagement with the audience. Artis is highly capable to respond to unplanned situations and engage with the audience. We will continue working with Artis in future events and we recommend him to others as well!
