On August 24, at the meeting with representatives of small and medium-sized businesses within the framework of the project “Business and power: straight talk” to be held in Korston trade and entertainment center, Interim President of Tatarstan Republic Rustam Minnikhanov said that we will benefit from communication in the form of dialogue with entrepreneurs.
“The form of communication is found and should be developed because such meetings are useful. A lot of people have high expectations from such meeting and think that if you asked a question, the problem will be solved. I have to mention that it requires taking appropriate measures, while a number of questions should be solved on federal level. As we need some organization, where businessman can speak of their plans concerning future enterprises, I support your idea of establishing Council on Entrepreneurship under the President of the Republic Tatarstan. It is essential that the businessmen from different regions must be included,” the Interim President of Tatarstan Republic noted, welcoming the participants of the meeting.
To the point, the project “Business and power: straight talk” is a series of meetings of governmental authorities with businessmen of Tatarstan Republic and was launched in 2014 on the initiative of Commissioner under the Tatarstan President for the protection of entrepreneurs’ rights Timur Nagumanov. In 2014 it was recognized as the best project among business ombudsmen.
