The Government of the Russian Federation signed a resolution on the introduction of changes in the activities of enterprises in the territories of advanced socio-economic development in several generations. In particular, the Cabinet of Ministers expanded the list of economic activities for investors.
According to the document, ASEZ residents will now be able to participate in almost any commercial project, if they are not related to the production of excisable goods, financial services, rental, leasing, insurance, logging, wholesale and retail trade, land, water and air transportation. The corresponding news item was published by the department’s press service.
The innovation will have a positive impact on the economy of advanced development areas, as the changes will give greater freedom to entrepreneurs in single-industry cities, who previously could create projects only within a strictly limited list of permitted activities.
The diversity of startups, in turn, will attract more investment in TOP. The appearance of new innovative projects will create many new jobs. At the same time, equitable competitive opportunities will be created for all entrepreneurs.
Similar positive changes are expected, including Sarov ASEZ in the Nizhny Novgorod region: the Cabinet of Ministers has expanded its borders, and local projects are now expected to attract more than 1.8 billion rubles and create more than 200 jobs.
There is already the first information about several new Sarov companies. One of the production location projects will focus on the production of valves for nuclear power plants. Another involves the creation of new lines for the production of cottage cheese, chocolate, jam. The opening of a beverage plant for cereals, juices and water is also planned.
