Barriers prohibiting to export: methods to apply in practice Lozova, Ludmila; Sloka, Biruta This article concentrates on export barriers as one of important companies’ internationalization process. This article aims to show the process of adaption of some of export barriers international theoretical findings to Latvia’s situation in the frame of the Latvian export to Africa. As African economies grow, this trade direction becomes very popular amongst entrepreneurs all over the world and may serve as good new market to Latvia exporters. The methodology of barrier’s adaption had been divided into several stages with application of “locus of barrier’s overcoming difficulty” in the end. The locus separates more important and difficult barriers from less ones for Latvian entrepreneurs. Four export barrier groups were distilled: barriers related to difficulties with bank transfers from overseas markets, barriers referred to production environment in Latvia, barriers related to lack of knowledge about how to work on African market and barriers referred to export logistics procedures and arranging shipment. In the result, specific scientific barrier’s overcoming methods were received and their findings considered as fruit of the study.

Assessment of the development of the European Union’s airport sector under economic globalization conditions Sikorskaitė-Narkun, Eglė; Okunevičiūtė-Neverauskienė, Laima; Linkevičius, Dominykas Object of research: the development and assessment of the European Union’s airport sector under economic globalization. This study conducts a comprehensive analysis of economic globalization theories, examining the key drivers of globalization, their effects on various economic sectors, and their specific linkages to transportation infrastructure. Considering the European Union’s economic policies and transport sector development strategies, the study evaluates the existing assessment tools used to measure economic globalization in the airport sector. The research provides an in-depth examination of the effects of specific globalization processes – economic integration, capital mobility, trade liberalization, and digitalization – on the European Union’s airport sector. To empirically assess the impact of globalization conditions on airport operations, a comparative analysis of the development of major EU airports has been conducted. This analysis evaluates key indicators such as passenger flows, cargo volumes, infrastructure investments, and the accessibility of air transport services, considering the influence of globalization factors. The empirical part of the study employs Pearson correlation analysis to identify linear relationships between passenger numbers, flight frequency, and key macroeconomic indicators, including GDP growth and inflation rates. The research focuses on the airport sector of the Baltic states, analysed as a specific regional area that provides insights into the impact of globalization on smaller yet strategically significant EU markets. The findings of the study contribute to a deeper understanding of globalization trends in the air transport sector and offer policy recommendations for further integrating the EU’s air transport system into the global economy.

Comparative assessment of the economic feasibility of mass timber buildings Hassan, Ferdinand Senam; Grobbelaar, Schalk A comparative analysis of the costs of mass timber and engineered wood buildings relative to concrete and steel structures was conducted. Using a systematic literature review and a lifecycle cost analysis framework, the study examined 30 studies focused on cost comparisons of buildings. The findings indicate that mass timber buildings incur higher costs during the product and construction phases. However, the results were mixed for the operational, end-oflife, and total lifecycle costs. There is a need for standardised cost assessments to quantify the monetary value of mass timber’s benefits to fully capture its financial advantages. Comprehensive data is also required to improve the accuracy of cost evaluations. The study contributes to a broader understanding of the economic viability of mass timber buildings and lays a groundwork for future research.
