Investment forum 2019 and AHK meeting

The annual Investment Forum organized by the German-Russian Chamber of Commerce in Germany, is aimed primarily at medium-sized German companies that are interested in expansion of their business in Russia. The event is therefore dedicated to the latest developments on this topic.

2018 was a difficult year for the Russian economy. Contrary to the pressure of sanctions and the external and macroeconomic risks, the Russian economy has grown steadily. Despite everything, the cooperation between Russia and Germany is intensifying. German companies continue to develop their productions in Russia. BMW plans to open a plant in Kaliningrad, Mercedes-Benz completes the construction of its plant in the Moscow region, and Volkswagen Group Rus continues to produce in Nizhny Novgorod and Kaluga. But how constant is this trend? Are there any incentives for further growth? What are the trends and challenges?
