Our take A decade ago a trophy hotel in Vilnius would have waited for a foreign buyer; today the bid comes from domestic tech wealth. Lithuania's technology fortunes are diversifying into real assets, creating a new class of local buyer with global-scale balance sheets — and together with the Kurianti karta schools deal, that is two acquisitions from the same ecosystem in one month. Sellers of quality assets in the Baltics increasingly run processes where the strongest bidder is local.
