Hinstein spoke at the IV Russian-Chinese Investment Forum

Governor of the Kursk region Alexander Khinshtein took part in the opening ceremony of the IV Russian-Chinese Forum of Investment Development and Trade Cooperation. He stressed that it is a great honor for him to represent the investment potential of the Kursk region to representatives of the Chinese authorities, leading industrialists and businessmen from 1,800 Chinese enterprises.

Currently, the Kursk region maintains trade relations with 99 countries, and China is one of the most important partners. Hinstein spoke about key measures to support business, in particular, the free economic zone regime introduced since 2026, which provides for tax benefits and reduced customs duties.

Special attention was paid to the energy supply of the region. The presence of own generation, developed network infrastructure and capacities for locating energy-intensive industries is a weighty argument for Chinese investors, said Alexander Khinshtein.

In order to familiarize Chinese partners with the region and its capabilities, in 2027, the Kursk Region Week is planned to be held in Shenyang, which includes exhibition pavilions, a business program and elements of Kursk culture. Representatives of the Kursk region invited Chinese colleagues to visit the Solovyin Territory. The preparation of a business mission for next year was also announced.
