On 18 February 2020, the interregional conference on strategic cooperation between Germany and Russia took place in the House of German Economy in Berlin. The topic of the conference organized by the Russian-German Chamber of Commerce together with the Association of German Chambers of Industry and Commerce (DIHK) was ‘Innovations as the Driver of Economic Growth’.
This event brought in over 500 representatives of the business communities, economists and experts from both countries. Participants discussed the outlooks for Russian and German economic policies, as well as ways to improve investment climate in Russia. In his welcome address, Russia’s Minister of Industry and Trade Denis Manturov invited the attendees to join Russia’s key discussion platforms – the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum on 3–6 June 2020 and the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok on 2–5 September 2020.
CEO and Chairman of the Roscongress Foundation Alexander Stuglev had a business meeting with Michael Harms who heads the German Committee on Eastern European Economic Relations, a regional partner of the Roscongress Foundation. They focused on participation formats available for Germany’s delegation at the upcoming SPIEF and REW 2020, as well as suggestions and ideas for business programme events. Meeting participants put a special emphasis on science and innovation, as Germany is among the world’s leaders in technology and innovative development. Being Roscongress’s regional partner, the Committee is offered to consider the Foundation’s special project titled ‘Innovation Space’.
