Le Forum International Economique de Saint-Pétersbourg a eu lieu du 1 au 3 juin 2017.
Lors des dernières années, le Forum a renforcé son autorité, il est devenu une plateforme reconnue des discutions d’un niveau mondial, ouverte pour le dialogue des participants sur les sujets actuels de la vie contemporaine.
3 jours de travail intensif avec plus de 14 000 participants, les contrats signés à la hauteur de 1.818 billion de roubles soit 28,38 billion d’euros (les contrats dont les sommes ne représentent pas un secret commercial).
CCIS-EXPERTISE a porté un grand intérêt à un évènement de telle importance.
En particulier, Olga Michau, Directeur de CCIS-EXPERTISE, a participé à la table ronde « Russie-France » qui a eu lieu lors du premier jour de Forum. Beaucoup de questions et beaucoup d’interrogations ont été évoqués : Quels sont les nouveaux horizons de la collaboration franco-russe compte tenu des résultats des élections françaises ? Existe-t-il beaucoup de possibilités pour la collaboration mutuelle entre la France et la Russie – Sont-elles toutes exploitées ? Y a-t-il des perspectives de l’annulation des sanctions dans le domaine de commerce et des finances ? Quel impact ont des restrictions sur l’industrie de deux pays ?
Chaque participant a exprimé la volonté et la nécessité de collaboration franco-russe.
