In 2020, TI will continue to focus on the organization of trade missions: For example, a trip under the motto “New Silk Road – from Western China to Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan” in September 2020 focuses on the opportunities offered by the “Belt and Road Initiative” (BRI). TI also supports networks in Thuringia, including the events of the German-Indian Roundtable (GIRT) and the Tatarstan company network. TI offers an efficient way of participating in international trade fairs abroad through attractive participation packages. The range of services also includes information events and workshops with targeted intercultural training for successful business contacts. Last but not least, the service of six foreign representatives on four continents will also be part of TI’s service offering in 2020. (hw)
