Meet the people who present the Kaunas district to the world and become a bridge between home and a new life.
“The Kaunas district is where my journey into the world began.”
From Domeikava to Singapore – that is the professional path of Arūnas Karlonas, whose life and career are inseparable from the Kaunas district. He was born and grew up here, started a family here, and still calls Domeikava home. Together with his wife Aušra he is raising three children.
His professional path also began in the Kaunas district. Arūnas took his first steps in public service as Elder of Domeikava, and his work on the Kaunas District Municipal Council gave him valuable experience and helped him grow as a person and a leader.
His career continued at the Kaunas County Governor’s Administration and the Lithuanian Innovation Agency, where he helped promote technological innovation and business development. Since 2015 he has applied his experience internationally – serving as Lithuania’s commercial attaché in China and Israel – and today he represents Lithuanian business interests in Singapore.
With many years of experience in innovation, business and economic diplomacy, Arūnas helps strengthen international partnerships and create new opportunities for cooperation.
Although his work has taken him to the far corners of the world, the Kaunas district remains his home. As an Honorary Ambassador of the Kaunas district, Arūnas aims to raise the profile of his native region internationally, showcase its potential and build new bridges of cooperation between the Kaunas district and the world.
