The participants discussed the prospects for multilateral cooperation to stimulate the technological transformation of economies to increase their competitiveness. In this vein, the urgency of close interaction to deepen international production ties and the development of industrial, scientific and technological cooperation with the active participation of the private sector in this process was noted.
The main attention was paid to the most promising industries – the so-called “growth points”, the use of which would give a significant impetus to the development of international industrial cooperation and increase the number of joint industrial enterprises in the region of the Eurasian continent.
The presentation of 50 promising investment projects aimed at creating high-tech joint ventures based on innovative developments focused on the production of products with high added value aroused keen interest.
