During the first face-to-face meeting the Lithuania Business College community had a presentation about the project context.

SMEs (99% of companies in the EU) need to adapt to change, develop their innovation capacity, competitive advantage and operate in the current challenging context.

Due to their limited resources, developing partnerships and alliances is the appropriate way for SMEs to access unique and valuable resources and thus increase their competitiveness.

Following the most current policies of the EU, SMEs should also gradually reach the green transition, and the alliances should facilitate such transition.

After the literature review the theoretical framework was developed and main results of the literature review five Sustainable Alliance Manager definitions were obtained. These definitions were also presented to the LBC community and discussions later followed about the concepts and the most suitable definitions that will be later defined in the cross-country analysis.
