Huge thanks to all the participants! We hope you enjoyed the event as we did! We look forward to meeting you all next year in the 11th annual Stockholm School of Economics in Riga and Latvijas Mobilais Telefons International Intervarsity Debate Tournament 2009!

Yours Truly,

The Convening Team

The oldest debate competition in Central and Eastern Europe, hosted by the SSE Riga & LMT Debate Society, has entered its tenth year and promises to be special. The Society is very grateful to its long-term partner Latvijas Mobilais Telefons whose generous contribution made this event possible.

In your mind try to combine a solid pool of adjudicators, high level debating and lavish socials with excellent food and unlimited free alcohol into one smoothly run event… Well, you still have a long way to go before you get the idea of what SSE Riga & LMT IV is all about. Even after throwing in 5-star accommodation, this year’s addition to our traditional offer, you get only half of the whole picture…

The other half is a captivating funky atmosphere, creative flare and passion for controversy as well as plenty of other things only Riga can offer. Unfortunately, they can hardly be imagined, you have to experience them. Have a look at the first one, and keep in mind – it’s just the beginning.

Explore the website to get more details about the first part of the SSE Riga & LMT IV 2008 picture. To experience the second half fill in the registration form and join us in Riga for a memorable weekend from 12-14 December.

Yours truly,
The Convening Team
