May 23 - Valery Fedorov took part in the discussion “Russian Regions` National Rating: First Results” that was held in the framework of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum 2014 (SPIEF)

The national rating of the investment climate in Russian regions represents a joint project of the leading associations and the Agency for Strategic Initiatives aimed at building an objective integrated assessment of the work of governmental bodies to improve the business climate in the regions.
