First Deputy Prime Minister Andrei Belousov noted in his remarks that a region’s investment appeal depended on the degree of effectiveness of the regional team. He stressed the importance of implementing three major processes – adopting the regional investment standard, monitoring of the process by business associations and entrepreneurs, and also the introduction of a system of incentives for the regions.
