The aim of the research is to examine the economic impact a special economic zone has on the region hosting it. The reason for the present research is the emergence of new data and studies with examples from around the world regarding SEZs and their effectivity. The investigation will help to evaluate the results Latvia has had up until now. It should be noted that special economic zones remain a very powerful tool of development and, when properly used, can provide the state with serious benefits.
