VTB United League And SIBUR Meet In Nizhny Novgorod
VTB United League president Sergey Kushchenko took part in several events with official league partner SIBUR during his visit to Nizhny Novgorod for the ACB All-Star Game. Kushchenko and SIBUR general director Dmitry Konov held a seminar for university team managers. They also visited one of SIBUR's factories in Kstovo, RusVinyl, a modern facility for manufacturing polyvinyl chloride, built by SIBUR and European firm SolVin.
- I was very impressed by what I saw, - said Kushchenko. - Chemical manufacturing is a very complex and interesting industry and requires extreme attention to detail. It's similar to basketball in that way. SIBUR has both state-of-the-art technology and big production volume.
