According to Roman Golovchenko, such events are in high demand, especially amid the current conditions when Belarusian and Russian enterprises are facing various problems. “In this regard, the interaction should be aimed at increasing the volume and finding reserves for cooperation that exist between the countries,” the prime minister said.
According to Roman Golovchenko, the three-day visit to Ufa and Kazan was full of negotiations and brought about real contracts.
On 22 September the Belarusian delegation visited Tatarstan Investment Development Agency to get familiar with the economic and innovative potential of Tatarstan. The agency is an executive body of the Government of Tatarstan, which exercises the powers of investment generation, support and implementation of investment projects, participation in the formation of a favorable investment climate, promotion of the investment attractiveness of the Republic of Tatarstan, and public-private partnership.
In 2013 the Tatarstan Export Corporation was set up at the Investment Development Agency to assist Tatarstan's enterprises-exporters in the promotion of their products to foreign markets, and also to regions of the Russian Federation. The corporation's objectives also include the development of the republic's non-resource exports by increasing the number of exporting companies and the volume of export transactions, promoting investment opportunities of Tatarstan and strengthening the image of the republic as a reliable trade and economic partner.
