Sojourn “Business and relaxation”
Opportunities for all companies!
On June 27, 2014, the Moldovan government signed a historic free trade agreement with the European Union. So it’s a whole new opening to the Eastern markets that is looming. There are many opportunities to be seized. We offer you through this atypical sojourn, to mix relaxation, discovery and business.
You will be charmed by the hospitality of the Moldovans and their heritage. This little known country will delight you both with its gastronomy and its conviviality.
You will be officially received by the institutions and entrepreneurs installed on the territory.
