Swedish-Russian Business Club IT Section to appear in April

 

April, Moscow – Information Technologies will be occupying a special place in Club activities.

Sweden and Russia have a very long-standing relationship. But strong connections such as the one between these two countries still have the potential to become even stronger. The Swedish-Russian Business Club (www.srbc.ru) was established less than a year ago, but it has already become a meeting-place for Russian and Swedish businessmen who are in active search of new business contacts both in Sweden and in Russia. During the time the Club has been operating a number of significant meetings have taken place, attended by both businessmen and journalists.

The primary goal of the Club is to create a platform for business development between Sweden and Russia, and provide support for improving the skills of Russian and Swedish businessmen. As contemporary business possesses little chance for success without Information Technologies, the Club has made the decision to launch a specialized section dedicated to IT issues.

 

It is anticipated that topics for IT meetings will include the search for new technologies in Russian and in Sweden and their promotion on the markets, the exploration of the needs of “non-IT” companies, and the development of new IT solutions. What is very important for all Club members is to use IT as a marketing tool.

The first meeting of the IT Section of the Swedish-Russian Business Club will take place on April 27. This meeting will initiate the SRBC monthly meetings.

 

The Silicon Taiga Alliance will be overseeing the work of the IT Section.

 

You are welcome to join the Club as well as the Club’s IT Section on the Club website.
