Women businesswomen's views on what ‘Made in Russia’ products should look like will be reflected in the final concept of the REC's support program for Russian producers, Veronika Nikishina, head of the Russian Export Center (REC, part of VEB.RF) said at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF-2022).
"We are now re-launching our ‘birdie’ that symbolizes the ‘Made in Russia’ program, and we invite everyone present to take part in a survey on this project. We find it very important to have women's perspective on what criteria products Made in Russia and the ‘birdie’ we will promote as a symbol of Russian products should have", the head of the REC said.
