                                             The Forum-2010
                                         MOSCOW 7 & 8 JUNE 2010

The Forum-2010 would be the second business partnerships event in Russian history focused on SMEs and
organized by the MEA in cooperation with European and Russian business support institutions. The first Forum-
2009 brought together more than 80 Russian companies and a large group of European companies and business
support organizations representing interests of more than 60 European companies. During one day only more than
500 bilateral Russian-European meetings upon companies’ prior requests as well as an important number of “out-
of-schedule” meetings were held, including also the ones among Russians and among Europeans.

The Forum-2010 will be devoted to bilateral negotiations between Russian industrial companies, inter alia SMEs,
in production, R&D and services with business partnership proposals, including investment projects, and willing to
identify potential business partners in Europe, and European companies, inter alia SMEs, and business support
institutions which would have shown interest with regard to Russian business proposals and projects or which, in
their return, are offering cooperation, including investment projects, to Russian business community.

The Forum-2010 is making part of the MEA Long-Term Integrated Business Partnerships Programme for
Russian industrial companies, which in addition to an annual brokerage event in Moscow on a broader number of
industrial sectors includes, inter alia organizing and holding Russia-Europe matchmaking events in selected
Russian regions focused on their local economic and entrepreneurship development priorities.

European and Russian companies from the following sectors are invited to take part in the Forum-2010:

The preparation for the forum by MEA involves identification of business partnership opportunities / investment
projects, profiling of enterprises and formulation, analysis and screening of individual project proposals. The forum
itself will bring together potential commercial and joint venture partners to discuss possible forms of cooperation to
implement business partnerships / investment plans being tabled. All those participating in this business -
investment forum share one thing in common, the desire to broaden their contact network and to find new partners
for technical as well as commercial purposes. The forum provides a unique opportunity for you to find new
business contacts.
