What started six years ago as a close collaboration on a specific project has grown into a long-term commitment to Latvia for Israeli technology company TandemG.
Today, TandemG is taking its next step in Latvia by establishing a fully-fledged Latvian company and expanding its local operations and plans to create up to 15 additional jobs over the next two years, the company is strengthening its presence in Riga and making Latvia an increasingly important part of its international operations.
This expansion also reflects Latvia's ability to attract international technology companies and support their long-term growth. The Latvian Investment and Development Agency (LIAA) plays an important role in fostering a business-friendly environment and supporting foreign investors in establishing and developing their operations in Latvia.
Six years of building trust
TandemG's story in Latvia did not begin with a major investment decision. It started with people and a specific project.
Six years ago, the company began working closely with a local team in Riga. Several years later, around three years ago, TandemG took the next step by integrating its Latvian employees into a wider range of projects, working alongside its Israeli teams and directly supporting international clients.
As this model proved successful, the company gained confidence in Latvia as a location for further growth.
“Over time, we saw that this model worked extremely well, which gave us the confidence to expand our activity and establish a stronger, more permanent presence in Latvia,” says Neta Brenner, COO of TandemG.
This gradual evolution, from project-based cooperation to integrated international teams and now to a fully-fledged Latvian branch, reflects TandemG's growing confidence in the country's talent and business environment.
Talent that makes the difference
For TandemG, one of the strongest reasons to continue expanding in Latvia has been the quality of people it has encountered along the way.
The company's experience extends beyond its own employees to the wider professional ecosystem supporting its operations, including legal, accounting and recruitment partners.
But talent remains at the heart of the company's decision to grow.
“The quality of the talent has been one of the biggest positive surprises for us. The graduates coming out of universities in Riga are at a very high professional level. From our experience, they are absolutely on par with Israeli graduates and sometimes even better,” says Neta Brenner, COO of TandemG.
The company also values the strong work ethic of its Latvian employees, particularly their sense of responsibility, discipline, accuracy and commitment.
For a company whose work depends on close collaboration between highly skilled international teams, these qualities have proved particularly valuable.
Where teams work as one
Another factor that has supported TandemG's growth is the close cooperation between its Latvian and Israeli teams.
The company says it has experienced few cultural barriers between the two locations, allowing employees to integrate naturally into joint projects and work directly with international clients.
This has enabled the Latvian team to become an integral part of TandemG's wider R&D activities rather than operating as a separate support function.
TandemG develops, designs and delivers tailored software and hardware solutions for clients across multiple industries, supporting projects from initial concepts through to finished products. Its international client base includes well-known multinational technology companies as well as ambitious startups.
A responsible and growing business
TandemG's commitment to Latvia extends beyond investment and recruitment. In 2025, the company received recognition from the Latvian State Revenue Service for its transparent and responsible tax compliance.
With its local team becoming increasingly integrated into international projects, TandemG sees further opportunities to develop its operations in Latvia.
The company's story is ultimately one of gradual growth: a relationship that began with a single project, developed into a local team, evolved into international collaboration.
For TandemG, Latvia is no longer simply a location where the company operates. It is becoming an increasingly important part of how the company grows and delivers technology solutions to its international clients.
