Chief of the local Department for Entrepreneurship and Industrial-Innovative Development Almas Madiyev gave a press conference on the threshold of this event.
“We are planning to sign as many as 50 memorandums worth 300bln tenge in total. Among them is the memorandum on construction of a plant on deep processing of wheat in the Industrial Zone and construction of a rehabilitation centre and hypermarkets under PPP contracts,” he noted.
Noteworthy to say that these works are aimed at implementation of the 55th step of the 100 Specific Steps National Plan – attraction of at least 10 transnational companies to the country’s processing sector in order to boost export of Kazakhstan-produced goods to the international markets.
In turn, head of the Eurasian Economic Club of Scientists Murat Karymsakov said that 25 international experts and representatives of international financial organizations will be the speakers at the Forum.
