We launched the map in the first place, in order to attract investment into the economy of Kazakhstan. Secondly, it is an indisputable tool, including for local authorities. Specialization of each region is visible on the map. For example, two businessmen appealed to the local government agency for assistance. Who to support? Regional map is designed to address these issues", - said the expert.
Shotanov also said that due to the regional map some Kazakhstani projects interested Chinese investors. "A large forum is held today in China, we presented 34 projects, the Chinese are interested in them. Our representatives went there. There Chinese investors will study these projects", - he said.

Reporters asked Shotanov what reflexivity NCE expects from the program.
"We expect that we will exceed 90% recoverability. On what is our optimism based? Firstly, we have guarantee mechanisms through regional councils of entrepreneurs, which includes influential businessmen in each region.

And we work with each entrepreneur starting from the conception of a business idea ", - he said.
