Your potential in Central Asia and what you have to consider when entering the market
Event: Business opportunities in Central Asia
During this event, we will outline the most current developments in these countries and the business opportunities for Swiss exporters, followed by a presentations of Swiss companies (Burckhardt Compression AG and Laurastar SA) already present in the market.
A lot of opportunities for Swiss SMEs
The region of Central Asia (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan) includes almost 70 million people. Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan both benefit from their membership within the Eurasian Economic Union (together with Russia, Belarus and Armenia), a market of almost 180 million people. The five countries have shown different developments in recent years. Especially Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan have become more and more important for foreign companies. Furthermore, Central Asia is in the middle of the “New Silk Road” (Belt and Road-Initiative) and the whole region will therefore benefit from major investments in infrastructure. In addition, many of these countries show interesting business opportunities for Swiss companies in several industries.
What to expect from the event
Switzerland Global Enterprise and the Joint Chamber of Commerce organize an event around the topic "Business Opportunities in Kazakhstan and Central Asia". We will show you how to manage your market entry without stumbling over the most common obstacles. Mr. Jiri Rus, Burckhardt Compression AG and Mr. Christian Bordas, Laurastar SA, will explain how they mastered the market entry in Kazakhstan and they will be pleased to share his experiencs with you.
