USRBC President Ed Verona Lauds GE Announcement on Energy and Healthcare Joint Ventures in Russia

September 16, 2011 By Bio-Medicine.Org

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — The
U.S.-Russia Business Council is pleased to announce that General
Electric (GE), a USRBC member, finalized agreements today to
establish two new joint ventures in Russia. These joint ventures
bolster GE’s position in one of the world’s fastest-growing markets
while enhancing Russia’s power generation and healthcare
sectors.

TECHNOLOGIES.  Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin and GE
CEO Jeffery Immelt attended the signing ceremony at the 10th

President Ed Verona. “We are delighted to see that GE is
reaffirming its long-term commitment to the Russia market. It is

components of the high-tech diagnostic units will be made in the
United States.  Today’s announcement by GE is another clear
example of the strong commercial ties between the U.S. and
Russia.”

The U.S.-Russia Business Council (USRBC) represents the
interests of its 250 U.S. and Russian member companies, providing
business development and government relations support in both
