Latvia to Host CiTech’s European Operations Following Multi-Year Cooperation with LIAA

Critical Infrastructure Technologies Ltd. (CiTech), an Australian developer of cutting-edge mobile communications platforms, has announced the establishment of its wholly owned Latvian subsidiary SIA CiTech Europe, with plans to make Latvia the company’s European headquarters by 2026. The decision marks a significant milestone in CiTech’s global growth strategy and positions Liepāja as a key hub for the company’s European manufacturing, sales, and innovation activities.

CiTech’s planned facility will be in the Liepāja Special Economic Zone (LSEZ), taking advantage of the region’s excellent logistics, access to European markets, and competitive tax incentives — including a corporate tax rate of just 4% within the SEZ.

The company’s CEO, Brenton Scott, emphasized Latvia’s strategic importance for CiTech’s European expansion: “Our engagements with Latvian authorities have confirmed Latvia’s attractiveness as the home for our European headquarters. We are very excited to be accelerating our establishment in Latvia, building strong partnerships and creating a hub to support defense, border security, surveillance, and innovation across the European market.”
