About

Of the multitude of events that occur during Transport Week, the Forum and Exhibition "Transport of Russia" remain key events.

The exhibition, in turn, demonstrates the latest developments and innovations within the transport industry. The content of these events largely determines the direction of future developments within the transport sector.
The Transport of Russia Forum and Exhibition is annually attended by over 7,500 people. There are more than 9,500 participants in Transport Week.
The scope and format of the event, the number of people who participate in it, and the strategically important documents that are signed during it, speak to the fact that Transport Week is deservedly considered one of the largest international industry events.
