As part of the development of exhibition projects in Kazakhstan’s industrial regions, a partnership agreement was signed between the Republican Association of Mining and Mining & Metallurgical Enterprises (AGMP) and the exhibition company Astana Expo.

The parties held a working meeting attended by Kuanysh Kanapyanov, Executive Director of Astana Expo, and Mikhail Kononov, First Deputy Executive Director of AGMP, during which they discussed the key areas of cooperation. Agreements were reached on information support for events in Ust-Kamenogorsk, Pavlodar, and Aktobe, as well as on inviting AGMP member companies to visit these industry exhibitions.

This will help build a closer and more meaningful dialogue between businesses and the industry’s technology partners.”
