Russia to Hold High-Tech Fair in Guangzhou

Russia will hold a high-profile high-tech trade fair in south China's prosperous province of Guangdong this month to advertise its brands.

Some 300 high-tech products, many of them are very advanced judged by international criteria, will be available at the fair, but their prices are 10-30 percent lower than those made by the United States and Europe.

China has been long anticipating cooperation with Russia, which leads the world in many high-tech fields including space exploration and energy development, and leaders of the two sides have time and again voiced their support for cooperation.

A Russian government trade delegation will attend the fair, and expect to provide Chinese enterprises with six varieties of products. This is the first time Russia directly opens a market in south China.

Most of the attendants will come from Russia's New Siberia high- tech zone, known as Russia's silicon valley.
