From Idea to First Contract: “Export Boost” Launches in Krasnoyarsk

The first module of the “Export Boost” acceleration program took place on June 18-19. Twelve teams of small and medium-sized businesses from the Krasnoyarsk Territory worked hard on their first steps into international markets.

Led by Mikhail Derevyanko, Deputy General Director of the Avangard SEZ, the participants:

• learned to analyze markets and find buyers;
• compiled a list of target countries for export;
• explored the intricacies of certification and intellectual property protection.

Practical work with online resources and the exchange of experiences between entrepreneurs were of particular interest.
