FOREWORD

Russia-Singapore Business Forum 2010

Since the first RSBF was held in 2006 in Singapore, the Forum has grown in stature to become Asia’s only leading business and networking platform for Russian/CIS and Singaporean/Asian businessmen. It has set a precedent in bringing together top government and business elite from these regions. Over the course of the four forums, attendance has more than tripled to reach over 600 delegates in 2009. Its success is tangible, with increasing business tie-ups and deals struck.

When President Medvedev met a group of top Russian and Singapore businessmen during the APEC Summit in Singapore in November 2009, he specifically mentioned the RSBF as the key forum that is bringing our business interests together.

As we move ahead towards RSBF 2010, we will continue to be business-driven, setting our sights to creating serious success stories among our companies. RSBF 2010 will aim for a target of 800 participants, with a programme spread out over 4 days, including more focused segments and featuring more prominent speakers. We have also put together a series of exciting social functions that will offer you fun networking with your peers, speakers and senior government officials.

I look forward to receive you at the RSBF 2010.

Yours Sincerely

AMBASSADOR MICHAEL TAY
Executive Director
Russia-Singapore Business Forum Organising Council
