RUDN University strengthens ties with employers of the Republic of Ecuador
One of the key events was signing a memorandum with the companies of Quito Inor Flowers - the manufacturer and supplier of famous Ecuadorian roses to Russia. General Director of the company is Ines Ortiz, a graduate of the Faculty of History and Philology of RUDN University in 1990. Ines Ortiz said that at the moment, on the plantations of Ecuador there are not enough specialists in plant phytopathology and ethology.
