Exporters were told about the possibilities of promoting goods to foreign markets.

The scientific and practical seminar "Promotion of goods to foreign markets:  foreign patenting. Protection of goods on the Russian market." was held in the "Boiling Point" of Kazan IT park: The specialists of the export support center spoke about the support measures available to export-oriented companies.

The main topics of discussion were international patenting and protection of goods, digital platforms for small business support, the system of chambers as an opportunity to conduct foreign economic activity, as well as the entry of the franchise network into the international market.

Earlier, the Ministry of economy of the Republic of Tatarstan reported on the number of SMEs started exporting from the Republic of Tatarstan during the first six months of 2019. The annuall plan is 90 exporters to foreign markets.There have been already 46 companies marketed on international level.  The percentage of implementation of the plan for the reporting period is 102.2 %.

As the Minister of economy Farid Abdulganiev noted, this result is largely based on the development of information,consulting and educational work with exporters. So, this year they have an additional educational module within the program "Business class". It helps not only to get the basic knowledge necessary for starting an export business activity, but also to increase the level of knowledge of already established exporters.

Also, exporters began to actively seek advice from MFC for business: according to the data for the first five months of the MFC for business functioning, the services provided to exporters have become one of the most popular.
