The regulations of the Cabinet of Ministers stipulate that the Qualification Paper Commission must have at least 50% of the employers' representatives and the chairman of the Commission must also be from the employers. Qualification papers are developed in accordance with the requirements approved by the ICT industry’s Professional Education Council, and the task of the Commission is to make sure that the requirements have been met and to assess how well they have been met. As the Commission has to listen the presentations of about 100 students, it usually works in parallel sub-commissions. A total of about 20 Commission members are needed to work intensively during the week in late May – early June. Each member of the Commission should get acquainted with about 5 qualification papers and provide a review. The Commission holds its meetings in the afternoons in order not to delay the work of the Commission members.

Chairman of the Council Gundars Bērziņš is the Dean of the University of Latvia’s Faculty of Business, Management and Economics and a Professor. He holds a doctorate in management science and as a leading researcher has participated in many research projects and has authored a number of international scientific publications. His research interests include business strategies and regional policy. At the same time, he is also a member of the board at the SSE Riga Foundation and a member of the UL Student Business Incubator Council. He has previously held a post of Chancellor of the University of Latvia. For a long time, he also had a private business. His passion is the importance of strategy and strategic thinking in business. He is excited to read lectures on “Management theories”, “Business Strategy and Policy Management” and “Strategic and Operational Planning”.

On the UL New Technologies and Innovations Day, the Knowledge Agora is the central event, in which each participantshares his or her knowledge, discoveries, research, ideas, achievements and communicates them to the whole world. Any researcher or student of the University of Latvia, who has recently conducted or is currently conducting an innovative study, offered an idea and wants to raise interest of thewider public, can apply for the Knowledge Agora. The Knowledge Agora 2021 will be divided into 4 blocks: Natural Sciences; Humanities and Arts; Social Sciences; Medicine and Health Sciences. The duration of each presentation is 5–8 minutes, and the activities will be divided into two days. Depending on security considerations, lecturers will speak in person or remotely. It is planned to broadcast the Knowledge Agora online, as well as to ensure publicity before and after the event.

as for the element mapping in the center – 1 mm. XPS spectra (ISSP, UL) were also taken for these samples, confirming the presence of non-stoichiometric WTe2, mostly oxidized. 2) Synthesis of WTe2 nanowires. Along with the research conducted to establish growth parameters of WTe2 thin films/thin structures, methodology for the synthesis of nanowires has also been developed. Compared to the WTe2/hBN structures, nanowires and nanoribbons can be easily transferred to other desired substrates, and their geometrical shape is particularly suitable for studies of fundamental charge carrier transport properties. 3) Synthesis of WTe2 thin films from pre-deposited WOx. In alternative to the complex multi-parameter synthesis thin WTe2 structures from W: and Te precursor, WTe2 films could be obtained by heating a sputtered layer of oxidized W in a Te environment. WOx films with a thickness of 15 – 30 nm on Si/SiO2 substrates were made at the partner's institution. PhD student, initially included
