Expoforum Shared its Experience with Russia’s Regions

On June 9, ExpoForum organized a business tour at the construction site of the international congress and exhibition centre. The tour was for participants of the conference, ``Managing a city as part of the state's innovation strategy,’’ that was held in St. Petersburg on June 8-10.

The conference was for the heads of local governments and Russia's regions; and it was held with support from the governments of the Leningrad region, and St. Petersburg.

Part of the conference was held in the Pushkin district and was devoted to ways of enhancing this area’s investment attractiveness. The construction of the convention and exhibition centre was presented as an example of an investment project that promotes the city’s development.

Specialists from different regions of Russia were interested in how the city and investors interact when implementing such a large project, taxation issues, and the possibility of obtaining benefits and preferences for such projects.

It is important to remember that ExpoForum cooperated with the St. Petersburg government, when in 2010 the company ordered the project design for the reconstruction of the St. Petersburg highway that will provide transport accessibility for the future complex. For their part, city authorities allocated funds to complete the work during 2011-2013.
