More than 1.2 thousand entrepreneurs in Primorye were united by the forum “My Business. Business by the sea"

Vera Shcherbina, First Vice-Governor and Prime Minister of Primorsky Krai, welcomed the participants of the regional entrepreneurial forum "My Business.

Business by the Sea". The large-scale event unfolded on 21-22 May in Vladivostok and gathered more than 1.2 thousand participants.

The First Vice-Governor stressed that small and medium-sized businesses are an important part of Primorsky Krai's social and economic development. The region holds leading positions in the Far Eastern Federal District in terms of the main indicators of SME development. And all this happens thanks to the people who live here, who have an active position, set ambitious goals and successfully achieve them.

"Primorye RF accounts for almost one third of small and medium-sized enterprises of the Far Eastern Federal District and the same number of employees of these enterprises. We have more than 90,000 registered small and medium-sized businesses. Primorsky Krai among the regions of the Far Eastern Federal District is a leader in the number of newly created small and medium-sized businesses - there are more than 17 thousand of them. We are leaders in the number of self-employed citizens, with almost 98 thousand people. Last year, 390 social enterprises were registered in the region, and we were among the top five in the country. This year we plan to involve even more companies in social business," Vera Shcherbina emphasised.

She paid much attention to the support measures that the region provides to businesses. These are grants, subsidies, micro-loans, tax incentives, as well as various educational and event activities. In a solemn atmosphere, the First Vice-Governor presented awards to the winners of the regional contest "Exporter of the Year" in the spheres of industry, agro-industrial complex and ready-made food, as well as in the sphere of services. In addition, the trader of the year was named at the forum....
