The Project

TealHelix is an EU-funded project that aims to create a personalised, inclusive and targeted approach to sustainable food labelling. The project brings together 17 partners from 11 European countries, including academic and research institutions, NGOs, market research companies and marketing agencies. Coordinated by KU Leuven, a leading research university in Belgium and with a budget of €6.5 million, TealHelix responds to the current status quo of low incentive behind sustainable food consumption by understanding the motivational characteristics of consumers and empowering them in making informed, sustainability-aligned decisions.

We’re proud to join the ENERPOL project under Horizon Europe’s Excellence Pillar, coordinated by the Norwegian School of Economics (NHH). The project brings together leading institutions to explore policy strategies that empower households in the energy transition, redefining them as not just consumers, but also producers and flexibility providers critical to a fair, climate-neutral energy system.

On September 17, in Anykščiai, dr. Ieva Žebrytė, Associate Professor at VU FEBA and representative of the Department of Business, participated in the forum organized by the World Bank and funded by the EU – “An experience exchange on social entrepreneurship and social innovation for regional development and resilience” (Baltics Catching-up Regions Forum).

Students of the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration (FEBA) at Vilnius University are invited to apply for the PwC “Solvers” scholarship. This scholarship is not only financial support but also a recognition that your efforts, academic achievements, and active involvement are noticed and appreciated.

On September 8, a sponsorship agreement was signed between PwC Lithuania and Vilnius University, establishing the continuity of the PwC “Solvers” scholarship. This once again confirms the commitment of both partners to invest in student development and their professional future.

The partnership between PwC Lithuania and VU FEBA has lasted for many years. The collaboration goes beyond scholarships – the PwC team actively engages in faculty life by offering internships, job opportunities, giving lectures, mentoring final theses, and participating in thesis evaluation committees.

 

The Faculty of Economics and Business Administration at Vilnius University proudly congratulates our colleague, who on September 4 successfully defended his doctoral dissertation “CEO Type and Individual Characteristics as Determinants of Company Strategic Orientation and Financial Performance.”

The dissertation was prepared in 2021–2025 at Vilnius University, Faculty of Economics and Business Administration.
