Prime Minister Vladimir Putin sends greetings to participants and guests of the 42nd World Congress of the International Advertising Association

 
 
 

The message reads, in part:

I am happy to see Russia host such a high-profile event, which convenes heads of leading transnational advertising corporations.

Russia is interested in a meaningful dialogue between experts, researchers, business executives and government officials on all issues pertaining to innovation-based economic development. I expect your work at the congress to have a beneficial effect on the domestic market for advertising and related services, and to promote the industry's growth and competitive viability. I also hope that the event will help attract large investors and partners from all over the world.
