Business Hive Vilnius Cluster

Founded in 2010, Business Hive Vilnius is one of the oldest startup incubators and technology hubs in the Baltics, which hosts and incubates Lithuanian, CEE and CIS startups throughout the differing elemental stages of their evolution (mostly from pre-seed to A). We are focused on hardware, security, blockchain, AI, enterprise software, business/industry automation, and fintech, among others. The modern central headquarters where we have established a welcoming and highly effective startup ecosystem is the BHV home building – opened in 2015.
