Discovering new regions: the project geography at stage 16

Funding stage 16 in the project "Duyunov's motors" is nearing completion. We continue to summarize its results. Today we will see how the project geography has changed over the past six months.

At stage 16, the national representative offices of SOLARGROUP have been opened in 5 countries:

• on August 28 - in Nepal,
• on September 4 - in Italy,
• on October 2 - in Peru,
• on November 27 - in Ecuador,
• on December 4 - in Russia.

The representative offices in Peru and Ecuador became the first ones in Latin America. In total, they operate in 20 countries worldwide. These are the countries where the partners of SOLARGROUP are most active.

Major events at stage 16 were held to celebrate the opening of national representative offices: online and offline conferences in these countries brought together hundreds of investors, partners and people interested in the project.

In addition, the conferences were held in those countries where the national representative offices had opened one or two years earlier: India, Vietnam, Côte d'Ivoire and Bulgaria.

In the context of the pandemic, the number of offline events has decreased, but in a number of countries they are still held regularly. First of all, we are talking about the African countries where Gilles Weber holds the national representative position. In total, at stage 16, that is, over six months, 218 (!) "live" presentation meetings were held there:

• 102 in Benin,
• 61 in Cameroon,
• 24 in Côte d'Ivoire,
• 18 in Togo,
• 13 in Burkina Faso.

Besides, offline meetings with the participation of the national and leading partners were held in Nigeria, Peru, Bulgaria, Mexico, Colombia and India.

Webinars are held weekly in all the main languages of the project. A total of 535 webinars have been held so far at stage 16. We note in particular the greatly increased activity of the partners in Latin America: 221 webinars were held in Spanish (113 (!) of them for Peru, the rest - for other Latin American countries).

66 webinars were held in Portuguese, 55 - in Hindi, 46 - in English, 37 - in Russian (including the "Expert Time" program), 36 - in Vietnamese, and in Bulgaria, Croatia, Germany, and France - about 20-30 for each country.

Webinars are held in a total of 11 languages. The back office is translated into 22 languages.

The technical support specialists accept requests in 7 main languages: Russian, English, French, Vietnamese, German, Hindi and Spanish. About 95 percent of all requests are submitted in these languages. The other participants can also get advice, but the operators use automatic translation to communicate with them.

The main result of the geographic expansion and international activity is funding the project "Duyunov's motors". The overwhelming amount of investment is attracted in the countries where the national representative offices have been opened.
