Unique compounds for pharmacology and record business activity: Amur region at the RUSSIA EXPO
28.02.2024
On Entrepreneurship Day, the Amur region presented at the Exposition an innovative product of the Ametis enterprise from Blagoveshchensk. The extract of Dahurian larch is used to produce components for pharmacology - dihydroquercetin and arabinogalactan. The company's products are unique and are not manufactured anywhere else in the world in industrial quantities. Dihydroquercetin from Blagoveshchensk is exported to 25 countries of the world. The main consumers are Japan, China, America and EU countries.
Due to the expansion of the dihydroquercetin application area, the company plans to increase production. Last year the company became a resident of the Amurskaya ASEZ. Tax benefits and organizational support measures will help to increase the output more than twice.
Tatyana Ilyushnikova was told about entrepreneurship in the Amur region by Oksana Kukshenyova, Minister of Economic Development and External Relations of the region.
"Entrepreneurs make a significant contribution to the GRP of the Amur region - about 22%. The number of people developing their business in the region has grown by a third over the last year. Today 62 thousand entrepreneurs and self-employed are engaged in business. The SME sector employs 72 thousand Amur residents. This is a significant result, which, among other things, is facilitated by various support measures of the national project "Small and Medium Entrepreneurship", implemented on the initiative of President Vladimir Putin," commented Oksana Kukshenyova.
According to her, this year the region retains all previously existing preferences for small businesses. They include tax benefits for priority activities under simplified and patent taxation systems, preferential loans up to 5 million rubles at rates from 1 to 14% per year, guarantee support and a wide range of services of the "My Business" Center. Direct subsidies to entrepreneurs are popular. This year, 40 million rubles from the regional budget has been allocated to municipalities for business development.
Among other activities, the region took part in a charity auction organized by the Far East "My Business" centers as part of Entrepreneurship Day at the RUSSIA EXPO. Guests of the Exposition were able to purchase products of entrepreneurs from each region of the Far Eastern Federal District. The Amur region offered a handmade wall clock with a map of the Far East for the auction. All the proceeds from the auction were donated by the regions to the fund to support the participants of the Special Military Operation.
