International Commodity Fair: day two

From 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, we are waiting for you at Expocentre for the International Commodity Fair. The second day of the event is every bit as eventful as the first. What’s in store for visitors today?

Business program for day two
On November 11, the business program will be divided into several thematic blocks.

At 10:45 AM, the conference will be opened by Anna Fomicheva, founder of the Logistics Group and Vice President of the Russian-Asian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs (RASPP). Together with Anna, attendees will be able to assess the impact of COVID-19 on customs control and track changes in customs clearance procedures.

At 11:45 AM, the next session of the forum will begin, dedicated to marketplaces—platforms that are now developing at a rapid pace. Serafima Bykanova (AliExpress Russia), Oleg Nevorotov (UPMARKET), Sergey Egorushkin (Association of Trade and Technology Companies in Retail), and other e-commerce experts will share insights on how to enter such online platforms, find a profitable niche, and choose the right legal structure. The session will be moderated by Susanna Uraeva, Account Director at UPMARKET—a platform for managing all stages of marketplace sales.
The final session of the second day’s program will be dedicated to the topic of transport cooperation between China and Russia in the post-COVID era. Experts from RASPP—representatives of government bodies from Russia and China, as well as leading logistics companies—will discuss the current situation, challenges, growth points in the transport sector, and other key issues.

Attendance at all forum events is free with prior online registration.
