The Ningbo cultural hub opened recently at the Ningbo Chamber of Commerce in Russia, located in Moscow's Greenwood International Trade Center. Featuring traditional Ningbo-inspired products, city publications, and distinctive graphic stamps, the space offers local businesses and Russian partners an easy and engaging way to learn about Ningbo.

Compact yet rich in character, the display brings together elements reflecting Ningbo's history, port-city identity, and everyday life. Visitors can see, touch, and experience the exhibits while learning more about the city in a relaxed setting.

Greenwood International Trade Center, which began operations in 2011, is the largest commercial project in Russia built with Chinese investment. It now hosts nearly 500 companies from more than 10 countries, making it an important platform for Chinese businesses entering the Russian market.

The Ningbo cultural hub naturally fits into business receptions, negotiations, and corporate exchanges. Russian partners can learn about Ningbo companies and products while gaining a deeper understanding of the city behind them.

"This small cultural hub has left us with a deep impression of Ningbo," said Andrey Dmitrievich Mandrukevich, who works at a Ningbo-based company in Russia.

The initiative will next expand to more Ningbo-based companies in Russia, bringing Ningbo culture into more everyday business settings across Russia.
