Turkmenistan

The German-Turkmen Partnering in Business with Germany Programme prepares executives from Turkmenistan specifically for business initiation and economic cooperation with German enterprises. Each year, around 20 Turkmen executives take part in this practical training. They come from firms which have foreign trade potential that wish to establish contacts in Germany. The focus is on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
Under the motto “Partnering in Business with Germany” the participants acquire management skills, gain insights into German business practices and establish contact with German enterprises, mainly medium-sized firms. The programme is aimed at managers and future managers, and at upper and middle management levels of Turkmen enterprises and is generally open to all industries.
