Burgundy is the first French region represented in Russia. The Regional Chamber of Commerce and Industry (CRCI) and the company Ural Atlantic signed an agreement through which one Ural Atlantic commits itself to managing a representation office in Ekaterinburg, the capital city of Ural.
6 times as big as France, Ural is a district sparsely populated (22 million inhabitants, that is 8 % of the Russian population) but which represents 22 % of the GDP and shows 15 % of annual growth. |
