This year, the representatives of Titanium Valley Management Company coordinated over three hundred meetings with companies and enterprises based in Western and Northern Europe, Southeast Asia, the United States, and Canada which could become potential residents of the special economic zone. Among the most important events of this kind were taking part in such exhibitions as Hannover Messe in Germany, MIPIM in France, Titanium in the U.S., and Innoprom, Russian Expo Arms, and MAKS in Russia.

Most of the promotion activities are expected to take place in 2012, when infrastructure work begins on the premises of the special economic zone, and the residents are able to locate their production facilities there.

Agreements have been reached to involve consulates and trade representations of other countries in Russia as well as industrial unions and associations, chambers of commerce and industry, and the media in the organization of the Titanium Valley road show in Switzerland, Italy, Finland, and Canada.
