Sponsorship and investments in society
We Engage for Future Generations
Through our sponsorships and community investments we want to support people with an entrepreneurial mindset and help their ideas grow.
Paragraphs
The Support for the active ones
By sponsoring and investing in the community, we want to support people with entrepreneurial mindsets and help them develop their ideas. We believe that sustainable business is essential to creating a better world, and that is one of the reasons why entrepreneurs have a special place in our hearts. By focusing our sponsorship and investment in society on three key areas: the environment, inclusion, diversity, and equality, we can contribute to the UN sustainable development goals. We prefer partnerships that we can engage in continuously and on a long-term basis.
We do not support natural persons, projects that facilitate social isolation and discrimination, projects that include risk elements, as well as events of a political and religious character.
For several years we strictly observe a no gifts policy — we do not provide gifts to our customers and partners. But, by supporting youth and social organisations, we provide our customers with welfare gifts as gratitude for the contribution of a customer, donating behalf of our clients.
We invite to submit applications for sponsorship projects in writing by sending a description of the project in electronic form or by mail to the Marketing Department of SEB banka. We evaluate all received projects based on their conformity with the established criteria, as well as in the context of the existing projects and depending on the available resources. We send a written reply to the submitter, to the e-mail address indicated by them, within two weeks.

Entrepreneurship and innovation
We wish our customers to be successful in the future as well, but our involvement in the facilitation of business activity has much deeper objectives. By supporting various programmes and projects we help businesses to not only receive the funding, but also – which is even more significant – to acquire the knowledge that might help our customers to develop a growing and thriving society in the future.
We help sustainable ideas grow by creating the inspiration for the Growth Programme, eAcademy, Grant Programme (ie)dvesma. When we think of entrepreneurs, we understand everyone who promotes diversity, change and new ideas. We support the leadership and entrepreneurship programme Future Heroes for girls ages 14 to 17 to unleash their potential and make a positive impact in society. We believe that social entrepreneurship in Latvia has a huge potential, so we help to create and strengthen this industry by creating a Grant Programme “Augšup” to support social entrepreneurship ideas.
Social inclusion
Children and youth are our future. Therefore it is significant for us to provide them with the conditions required for the successful commencement of their independent lives. SEB, as a socially responsible bank, constantly supports various social organizations that are involved in solving socially significant problems.
