Main audience - business owners and managers of large domestic and international companies.

 The conference covered issues of international investment, financing, management and capital increase, forming-up of international organizations, and many others.

 Traditionally, the participants had the opportunity to discuss important issues both during the presentation of the reports and exhibition, and on coffee-breaks. Each day of the conference ended with an evening cocktail and informal communication in a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere.

 The purpose of InvestPro - Kazakhstan 2014 - to provide the opportunity for personal exchange and dialogue between colleagues - has been achieved. Kazakh businessmen obtained current information from the leading market experts, and foreign delegates, in their turn, noted the high potential of Kazakhstan to conduct a successful business.
