Business programme

Russia – Latin America

15 Jun , 17:00–18:15
Business Dialogue
Congress Centre, zone D, conference hall D1

Against the backdrop of the ever more entrenched multipolarity of the world order and the restructuring of the architecture of the global economy, business ties between Russia and Latin America are successfully adapting to the new conditions. Strategic projects in the fields of energy, medicine, pharmacology, high tech and agriculture, along with the contribution of humanitarian ties developed over decades, are at the core of Russia’s long-term fruitful cooperation with its partner countries in the region. How can regulators further incentivize business efforts to increase turnover? What opportunities has the disruption to established production chains opened up for Russia and Latin American countries? How are existing financial and logistical constraints overcome in practice?
