SABIT Environmental Technologies Mining Delegation
EcoLinks
has organized a business meeting for relevant U.S. environmental companies in
the mining sector and their counterparts from Armenia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan,
Russian, Tajikistan and Ukraine. This
is an opportunity for U.S. companies to establish a direct dialogue with key
mining sector officials from a region ripe with opportunities for U.S. environmental
technology and services.
The
visiting delegation comprises representatives from ferrous and non-ferrous
mining operations as well as specialists in environmental impact issues and
government-run concerns. The program
will provide overviews of the SABIT program and its goals, foreign delegates’
needs, and the EcoLinks program. U.S.
company representatives will be offered the chance to meet individually with
delegates and discuss projects of mutual interest.
The
mandate of the EcoLinks program extends beyond this event by providing ongoing
services that assist U.S. and foreign firms to develop lasting partnerships.
EcoLinks also works directly with participating U.S. firms to assess market
prospects, identify potential business partners and arrange appointment
schedules.
