The Lithuanian Regional Research Institute aims to:
The origins of the Institute lie with researchers from the School of Economics and Business at KTU, who were among the first in Lithuania to engage in scientific research on regional development. As the scope of work related to managing regional development processes expanded, an independent Regional Development Centre was established at KTU in 1999. Its primary objective was to integrate scientific research, studies and training in the fields of regional economic and technological development.
In 2000, the formation of a large interdisciplinary group of researchers, together with extensive national and international partnerships, led to the establishment of the Lithuanian Regional Research Institute.
