Invite for SMMEs in the City of Tshwane to a working visit to Moscow, Russia, on 08-14 December 2014

The Executive Mayor of the City of Tshwane, Cllr Kgosientso Ramokgopa, is planning a working visit to Moscow, Russia, on 08-14 December 2014. 

The main purpose of the visit is to formally establish technical relations and build business linkages between the cities of Tshwane and Moscow. Our engagement with the City of Moscow is undertaken within the broader context of South Africa’s cooperation with our BRICS (Brazil, Russia, China and South Africa) partners, aimed at addressing poverty and underdevelopment in the South-South sphere cooperation.

It is our wish that the two cities discuss possible collaboration on the following thematic areas of mutual interest such as:

• Construction

• Agriculture products and mechanisation

• Arts and culture

• Automotive industry

• Green economy

• Local Economic Development

It is against the backdrop of the above details of the visit, that the Executive Mayor would like to kindly invite SMMEs in the City of Tshwane to form part of this strategic delegation and participate in the discussions.

Please note that your organisation will be responsible for transport to Moscow, accommodation and meals and all related costs. The City of Tshwane will only cover ground transport costs in Moscow.
