The expo is a venue for discussing mutual projects that are already being implemented, as well as the dialogue on prospects for expanding cooperation in the industry and technology areas.
Deepening international cooperation is particularly crucial for Russia as Eurasia region emerges as a new centre of the multipolar world.

Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin visited Innoprom 2024 and spoke at the main strategic session “Technological Partnership: in the spotlight of International Business”
“To increase the industry’s resilience to external challenges, the state is implementing a whole range of systemic measures. One of the most in–demand tools is a single subsidy for research and development work. Over 60 billion rubles have been allocated over four years. Another 40 billion was made up of private investments”, he stressed.
This has made it possible to finance over 400 innovative projects, including in the chemical industry, the automotive industry, oil and gas, heavy machinery and many other sectors. And this year we will allocate about 30 billion rubles more for such purposes, he said.
He said “We are strengthening cooperation and technological leadership within the framework of the Commonwealth of Independent States, as well as the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. This year, for the first time, the SCO and The CIS Executive Committee has received the official status of a partner of the Innoprom exhibition. The presence of these reputable international associations here will contribute to increasing mutual investments”.
“And another strategic direction is the development of cooperation with the BRICS member states. New participants joined his work. We will build common plans taking into account the growing potential of our economies”, he added.
“We hope that the Russian presidency of the CIS and BRICS bodies this year will open up additional opportunities for the implementation of joint initiatives in the economy, industry, energy, transport, infrastructure, agriculture and many other areas”, he concluded.
