“We hope that this agreement will first of all give our residents the opportunity to work more productively in both countries, and also attract Chinese high-tech companies to our technopark,” he said during the signing ceremony at the Technopolis in southeast Moscow.
The Skolkovo Technopark has a number of cooperation agreements with technoparks worldwide. It is a key part of the Skolkovo Innovation Center, a 400-hectare innovations ecosystem that is to be complete by 2020.
The latest was inked on the sidelines of the Open Innovations Forum in the Russian capital, which ends Wednesday.
