Russian entrepreneurs to learn from Springfield businesses

The delegation arrives today and will stay through Oct. 21. The Rotary Club of Springfield North is sponsoring the visit so its members can exchange training and advice with their real estate counterparts.

The visitors will travel throughout the state, accompanied by a Russian facilitator and professional interpreter, and will stay with people in the community who have volunteered to house them.

The ultimate goal of the project, organized through the Productivity Enhancement Program, is to boost Russia’s production of domestic goods and services in order to create political stability.

The delegates will document everything they learn and will share their knowledge with colleagues at home through seminars and business clubs. [[In-content Ad]]
