Maxim Ermakov, Minister of Industry and Trade of the Krasnoyarsk Territory: “There are about five thousand enterprises operating in the region in the field of mechanical engineering, metallurgy, woodworking, transport, communications, light industry and various equipment. One of the most striking projects is a company producing unmanned vehicles. Two models have been launched that can be used in a variety of fields, for example, patrolling forests during the fire season.” 

Representatives of the Yenisei Siberia Development Corporation held talks with companies of the Amur Region during the visit. Entrepreneurs of the region have expressed interest in projects being implemented in the Krasnoyarsk Territory. Special attention was paid to the development of cooperation in the field of agriculture.

The meeting participants also discussed issues of cooperation, including with representatives of Chinese enterprises operating in the Amur region. As part of the development of cooperation in the field of tourism, successful practices were exchanged and prospects for the introduction of interregional routes were considered. In addition, Krasnoyarsk residents visited a number of leading enterprises of the Amur region and possible cooperation between the regions.

Maxim Ermakov, Minister of Industry and Trade of the Krasnoyarsk Territory: “It is important to develop such cooperation, as it is beneficial for both sides. The Amur Region is distinguished by its geographical location and well–established relations with our country’s strategic partner, the People’s Republic of China. And this may be of interest to our manufacturers as well.”
