The agreement provides for cooperation of both parties in organization of joint conventions, exhibitions, and public cultural events, mutual consulting, informational and expert support. The FSFCI Rosconcert is also expected to participate in development of the cultural programme.
"As a non-financial development institution Roscognress regularly organizes social programmes at events held both in Russia and abroad. Apart from a serious business agenda, participants of the Forums will always be able to enjoy a varied entertainment programme. As part of our partnership, we will be able to implement most ambitious and interesting cultural projects," said Alexander Stuglev, Chairman of the Board and CEO of the Roscongress Foundation.
The partnership established between the Roscognress Foundation and FSFCI Rosconcert will allow to form of a code of requirements and quality standards for organization and management of cultural events abroad.
“Theatre, ballet, fine arts and music, literature and film – all of these are ironclad symbols of contemporary Russian culture. Currently, a great number of theatrical, musical and educational projects are carried out in different countries of the world. One of the best examples in the Russian Seasons international culture project, currently taking place in Italy. I’m confident when international cultural missions of our country join their experience and professionalism they will get an impulse for further development. Our long-term strategic partnership opens new horizonts to promote culture all over theworld,” said Alexey Lebedev, Director, Federal State-Funded Cultural Institution Rosconcert.
The signatories also agreed to unite their efforts with a view to promoting charitable, educational and socially beneficial projects.
