Company representatives shared this idea when they met Georgia's Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili yesterday.

They also expressed their readiness to help the Georgian Government develop electronic governance.

Garibashvili ended his working visit to China earlier today. The PM and a Georgian delegation spent about five days in China to attend the World Economic Forum and host other official meetings.
