Georgia and Hungary signed a memorandum of understanding in the field of e-communications and information technologies.

The document was signed by Georgian Economy Minister Giorgi Kvirikashvili and Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Peter Szijjártó.

"Hungarian Eximbank has allocated a half billion dollars to invest in Georgia," Kvirikashvili said. "We agreed with Szijjártó that a joint foundation, which will make this investment, will be established. We also signed a memorandum on cooperation in the field of e-communications and information technologies. Hungary is one of the leaders in this field. I hope that this partnership will be beneficial to us."

"Our goal is to strengthen the trade-economic cooperation with Georgia, especially in the sphere of high technologies," Szijjártó said. "Hungary is one of the leading countries in the field of e-communications and information technologies. We want to share our experience with Georgia. The trade turnover between Georgia and Hungary increased by eight percent in 2013."
