A representative of the State Firm “PROGRESS” took part at the Conference aimed at the development of Cooperation between the Ukrainian Defense Industry and the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA).

The most interesting and useful points of discussion were dedicated to the business opportunities for the Ukrainian governmental and private defense sector enterprises to become the NATO suppliers, as well as mutual benefits of such a cooperation in course of deepening Ukraine-NATO relations in particular in the frames of the Enhanced Opportunity Partnership Program.
