(Les Echos newspaper, France) » Over the past 10 years, 80% of economic growth in Russia has been a contribution of consumption and not oil and gas income. The middle class constitutes 55% of the population. That is a bigger percentage than in China or India. Russians are becoming more confident in their future: 44% expect to become wealthier, 42% are going to buy a new car soon, and 50% are going to move into a new flat. (Andy Smith, Head of Equity Research, Managing Director of Sberbank Investment Research) » According to the research carried out by Sberbank, household consumption accounts for two-thirds of Russia’s GDP. By 2025 the consumer market size is expected to double, growing up to 3 billion US dollars, which will make it the largest one in Europe and the fourth largest in the world. It means growth of such sectors as e-commerce, tourism, and advertising. Under these conditions it is easy to forecast a rapid growth in the trade show business and event industry as well as their efficiency growth. MARKET ANALYSIS Russian Federation The Russian market still remains one of the most attractive markets in the world for investing, promoting goods, services, technologies despite the impact of the global financial and economic crisis and current political issues. In global trade, the Russian Federation, a new WTO member, remains one of the most attractive markets of the world. Russian consumers improve their well-being year by year, seeking to purchase the best, modern, and advanced goods and services. Leading financial centres around the world actively invest into the Russian economy. More than half of the largest globe investors plan to expand their activities in the country.

(President of Russia Vladimir Putin at the meeting with the members of the Board Presidium of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Russian Federation) EXPOCENTRE IS A PARTNER OF THE STATE Expocentre represented by its highly professional and closeknit team is fully aware of its place within the general structure of the Russian economy and the high responsibility to the state and the society. Subjects of the most important Expocentre’s trade fairs correspond with the most important national pro- grammes and are directly related to the priorities of the Russian economic policy. The majority of the trade shows is carried out in cooperation with central authorities, relevant ministries, institutions, and state corporations. EXPOCENTRE: YOUR STRATEGIC PARTNER | 11 EXPOCENTRE’S FLAGSHIP TRADE SHOWS » are supported by state authorities of the Russian Federation and carried out in line with the national policy of modernization of the main sectors of economy, priority areas of science and technology, key aspects of the social sphere; » are considered to be landmark events in the Russian and world economy; » are organized in close cooperation with the leading industry unions and associations and other civil institutions; » are supported by federal ministries and the Moscow City Government, run under the auspices of the Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry. PARTICIPATION EXPERIENCE IN IMPLEMENTING NATIONAL POLICY Expocentre’s programme of accompanying events traditionally pays particular attention to strategic sectors of the economy, which contribute to the development of Russian companies, effective building up of their supply chains, and enhancement of their interregional and international relations. 12 | EXPOCENTRE: YOUR STRATEGIC PARTNER The country’s top officials pay special attention to Expocentre’s projects thus confirming their great importance for the country. President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin, Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev are frequent visitors to Expocentre’s trade shows and conventions. EXPOCENTRE’S TRADE SHOWS ARE SUPPORTED BY » Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation; » Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation; » Ministry of Communications and Mass Media of the Russian Federation; » Ministry of Energy of the Russian Federation; » Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation; » Ministry of Labour and Social Protection of the Russian Federation; » Ministry of Health Care of the Russian Federation; » Ministry of Sport of the Russian Federation; » Federal Communications Agency (Rossvyaz); » Federal Forestry Agency (Rosleskhoz); » Federal Medical and Biological Agency (FMBA of Russia); » Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Wellbeing (Rospotrebnadzor) » Federal Service for Surveillance in Health Care (Roszdravnadzor).

It is the place where economic strategy for this country’s development is formed. Interest in Expocentre’s trade shows and their support on the part of the government are well grounded: it is the place where EXPOCENTRE: YOUR STRATEGIC PARTNER | 13 EXPOCENTRE IS A PARTNER OF THE MOSCOW CITY GOVERNMENT The Moscow City Government considers the exhibition and congress activities a priority for the development of the capital. The President of Russia proclaimed an ambitious goal that is to transform the capital into the world’s largest financial center. The goal implies extensive and diverse congress and exhibition activity that is tightly associated with Expocentre. For the Russian capital city Expocentre at Krasnaya Presnya is one of the largest investors and taxpayers. The results of the 14 | EXPOCENTRE: YOUR STRATEGIC PARTNER partnership between city authorities and Expocentre have been appreciated and evaluated by the residents and guests of the city: transportation infrastructure is developed (a good example is the construction of Vystavochnaya and Delovoy Tsentr metro stations), business activity is growing (case in point: the new ultra-modern international complex Moscow-City was constructed near Expocentre), hotel services are improved. Expocentre, with a half-century experience in organization and holding the largest international trade shows and congresses, as “an elder brother” is ready to provide assistance to colleagues in the Russian regions and the former Soviet Republics in design, constuction and operation of exhibition complexes, consulting them on certification matters as well as holding educational and training workshops for personnel and exhibitors if the necessity arises. (Sergey Bednov, General Director of Expocentre ZAO) EXPOCENTRE: YOUR STRATEGIC PARTNER | 15 REGIONS: PRACTICE OF INTERACTION Today, only 45% of the Russian regions have specialized exhibition areas, though not all of them meet the modern standards and international specifications. Over the past seven years, the number of regional exhibition centres has doubled, but they are still not enough, and the available exhibition venues in the regions do not meet the needs of domestic and foreign companies. In total, there are 38 exhibition venues in Russia with an indoor exhibition area amounting to approximately 800,000 sq m. 16 | EXPOCENTRE: YOUR STRATEGIC PARTNER For comparison: in Germany, for the purpose of holding specialized trade shows, 22 venues with total area of 2.75 million sq m are used. In Italy, the total area used by the exhibition centres amounts to more than 2 million sq m and in China – more than 6 million sq m. The prospects for the economic development of Russian regions are closely connected with the need to construct specialized and modern exhibition and convention venues. Russia’s entry into the WTO will obviously promote the integration of Russian fairgrounds into the existing global exhibition and congress system. Cooperation of Expocentre, the Committee on Exhibition and Fair Activity Supporting Producers and Exporters of the Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and the Russian Union of Exhibitions and Fairs has provided necessary conditions for an ‘exhibition breakthrough’ in the regions. With the participation of Expocentre for the past 5 years, there have been put into operation such exhibition centres as Belexpocenter (the Belgorod region), Mordovexpocenter (the Republic of Mordovia) and exhibition complexes in the Republic of Komi, in the Kirov and Irkutsk regions. Expocentre, being the leading Russian exhibition company and the founder of the Russian exhibition business, actively and effectively shares its experience and know-how with their colleagues in the Russian regions. With participation of Expocentre there was prepared and submitted to public authorities a draft of the Concept of formation of exhibition, fair and congress infrastructure in the subjects of the Russian Federation based on principles of public and private partnership. The Concept was approved by the Russian Government. Many of the Concept items are implemented by Expocentre in its daily activities.

EXPOCENTRE: YOUR STRATEGIC PARTNER | 33 55 YEARS OF OUR COMMON HISTORY Expocentre’s 55th anniversary is an important milestone not only for our company but for the entire convention and exhibition industry. In 1959 Expocentre (back then it was the Exhibition Department of the All-Union Chamber of Commerce) started its activities in Sokolniki Park in Moscow. Twenty-four foreign exhibitions in different cities of the USSR such as Moscow, Tashkent, Alma-Ata, Kiev, Leningrad, Riga and other cities; soviet national exhibitions in Colombo, Helsinki and Mexico City; colorful Soviet stands at international fairs, and trade shows in 14 different countries. Such were the achievements of the newly created Department of the All-Union Chamber of Commerce in 1959. That year was a turning-point for establishing exhibition business in our country. 34 | EXPOCENTRE: YOUR STRATEGIC PARTNER But the most exciting events of the year were the Soviet Exhibition of Science, Technology and Culture held in the New York Coliseum and the American National Exhibit held in Sokolniki Park. The Soviet Exhibition of Science, Technology and Culture lasted 40 days and it was attended by more than one million Americans. For the American National Exhibit in Sokolniki Park, there was constructed a special exhibition town which included among others a single storey living house of a ‘typical American’, where famous ‘kitchen debate’ between Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev and Vice President of the USA Richard Nixon took place. There were a lot of memorable events in the subsequent history of Expocentre. Among them, the first in our country international trade show Stroidormash (1964) and the Khimia Exhibition (1965) that impressed the whole world. Construction of a modern exhibition complex on the bank of the Moskva River (1970–2000s) was a product of unique (at the time) international cooperation; organization of national expositions at the World exhibitions and other major foreign shows… Today, there are over 270 companies in the Russian market of exhibition and convention services. But Expocentre still retains its position as one of the leading exhibition companies in Europe. This anniversary year Expocentre as usual invites you to plunge into the festive atmosphere of exhibitions at Krasnaya Presnya, take part in business events, each of them is bound to leave its unique mark in history. Much in the history of Expocentre was accompanied by the words ‘for the first time’. Expocentre was the first to pave the way for the national exhibition industry to the international exhibition community, having become a full member of the Global Association of the Exhibition Industry (UFI) in 1975. It was also one of the initiators and founders of the Russian Union of Exhibitions and Fairs in 1991.
