On June, 30 the Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CCI of Russia) hosted a meeting of Sergey Katyrin, President of CCI of Russia, with a Chinese delegation headed by Zhang Shenfeng, Vice Chairman of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT). The parties discussed prospects for participation of Chinese companies in EXPOCENTRE’s conferences and exhibitions. They also discussed the exchange of information on business opportunities in both countries and interregional development.

During the talks, Sergey Katyrin said that in 2022 Chinese companies increased their participation in the exhibitions held at EXPOCENTRE by 35%: there were 1,160 companies from various sectors. “We have about 80 major exhibitions with international participation, in which Chinese companies are already showing increased interest. These include Prodexpo and Metalloobrabotka. We have work to do: we need to give an extra impetus for the exchange of information on opportunities in the congress and exhibition activities of our countries. It is important to more actively exchange delegations and hold business missions and B2B meetings”, said the head of CCI of Russia.

Zhang Shenfeng agreed with this initiative, recalling that China has a positive economic dynamics that strengthens such bilateral ties. For example, GDP growth in the Celestial Empire is expected to reach 4.5% this year. At the same time, trade turnover with Russia, as the leaders of the two countries envisioned, will “easily” reach, if not surpass, $200 billion, he said. “We hope to hold B2B meetings with Russian entrepreneurs in the near future, where we will discuss joint innovative energy and other high tech projects,” said the head of the Chinese delegation.
