Common questions
Can small companies and freelancers join?
Yes. A sole proprietor with 20K turnover pays 65 EUR/year. Same vote as a 100M company. You need a registered business in Latvia.
I’m not in core textile.
Welcome anyway. Technical, medical, defense, sustainability, IT and connected creative companies are all full members. Same fee scale based on turnover applies to everyone.
Any obligations beyond the fee?
None mandatory. Joining committees, attending events, voting at the General Assembly is up to you.
I’m a student or have no business yet.
LvTex Community is for you. Free, no contracts, no obligations.
Can I leave later?
Anytime, with 30 days notice. Paid fees are not refunded.
Can I attend an event before joining?
Often yes. Many events are open to prospective members on a case-by-case basis. Reach out and we will connect you with the next opportunity.
What does my membership fee fund?
Annual fees fund the Secretariat (operations, communications), audit, member services, and base infrastructure. Project work runs through grants and dedicated project budgets.
How do I get involved in committees?
After joining, you can participate in any existing committee. To start a new committee, gather two other founding members and submit a proposal to the Board.
Can I propose a project or initiative?
Yes. Members can propose projects through committees, the Secretariat, or directly to the Board. Initiatives aligned with the mission can become real LvTex programs.
Can I talk to someone first?
Of course. Contact us and we will answer your questions before you apply.
