INTERNATIONAL MUNICH FAIR PRESENTED IN ZAGREB

ZAGREB, 19 Sept (Hina) - Two events were organized for Croatian businessmen within 'The Bavarian Week in Zagreb' on Thursday. The first event happened in the Sheraton hotel where the Munich International Fair was presented, and the second event took place in the Croatian Chambers of Commerce where Croatian businessmen could learn more about possibilities and legal frameworks for cooperation with Bavaria. Representatives of the Zagreb and Munich Fairs and the Bavarian Centre for Cooperation in Management (OWZ Bayern) on Thursday signed an agreement which will be the basis for some eight to twelve seminars (to last some 40 days), which will be held in Croatia and Bavaria in 1997. The seminars will focus on professional improvement of Croatian businessmen in preparing and organizing the participation of Croatian firms at future fairs. The Munich Fair, which has 35 specialized shows and gathers some 24,000 exhibitors and two million visitors every year, is to open new exhibition sections in 1998, which will be occupied by businessmen from Central and Eastern Europe.
