The Sverdlovsk Region will take part in the Big Industrial Week Global Industrial and Technology Exhibition and Forum and showcase its most technologically advanced industrial companies under a collective exhibit. The Region's participation in the first foreign counterpart of INNOPROM was discussed at a meeting with Elena Khlybova, Deputy Minister of Investment and Development of the Sverdlovsk Region, and Daniil Mazurovsky, Vice-President of the Ural Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

Tentative list of companies interested in partaking in the first foreign counterpart of INNOPROM is available on the official event website.

The Big Industrial Week is expected to become the largest business event in the history of Russia-Egypt relations.  Memorandum to that effect was signed on July 9, 2018 by the President of Formika Group Maxim Zverkov and General Manager of Egypt International Exhibition Center Mohammed Elamin Adel Abdelghaffar Ramadan in the presence of Denis Manturov, the Minister of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation. Business Event LLC (part of Formika Group) is the official operator of the Big Industrial Week.

"Nowadays Africa constitutes a huge new market comprising countries with high purchase power and interest in technological development. That is exactly what Russian industrial manufacturers need. While the Big Industrial Week serves as the point of first entry into Africa for the majority of Russian companies, it provides other enterprises with an opportunity to bolster their current position. The region holds a lot of potential from the economic perspective, and there is a lot of room for development," Director of the Big Industrial Week Global Industrial and Technical Exhibition and Forum Elena Suvorova points out.
