After establishing a successful career in the USA, Marius moved from New York City to Vilnius in 1992 to live, work and invest in Lithuania. Since arriving in Lithuania, Marius has become one of Lithuania’s most successful investors.

Marius founded the law firm AAA Law, specialising in the fields of intellectual property and business law. He is also the chairman of AAA HOLDINGAS, which owns the Radisson Collection Astorija Hotel, Vilnius and the Grand Hotel Kempinski, Vilnius. Marius founded the Airport Hotels Fund to develop and build hotels next to Vilnius, Krakow, Riga and other airports in Europe.

Now, Marius wants to provide others with similar opportunities that he had – he aims to encourage persons to come to Lithuania, to start a business here, to teach and do research here, to study at the world’s best universities.

“It became a dream of mine to set aside a portion of my money to establish a not-for-profit foundation which would contribute to the economic growth of Lithuania by financially encouraging persons to come and discover the many opportunities that are here.”
