Russian Desk

русскоязычная версия

After the expansion of the European Union, and especially after several Eastern Europe States joined the EU, Russia took a step closer to Europe - not only geographically but also on a business level. At the same time, the European countries are forced by globalization to find new markets for their products and business development. In the context of this challenge, cooperation with Russia and the creation of additional manufacturing capacities increasingly become important for German companies. This is relevant especially taking into account the stabilization tendency of the Russian business and of its political course. Currently, every fourth medium-sized business is already active in Russia, Brazil, India or China - whereas Russia is the most important export market.

The risk of investing in Russia may not be underestimated, however. With more than 100 nationalities, Russia is the country with the most different ethnic groups worldwide. Businesspeople therefore quickly discover that Russia is not only geographically but also culturally the border between Asia and Occident. The factors influencing the success of business are various and can often only be foreseen by local experts with experience.
