Vorobyov, speaking at the meeting of the Government of the Moscow Region on October 28, 2014, called heads of the municipalities to step up the efforts on attracting the financial investments in the industry and social sector of the Moscow Region and on creating the favorable investment climate in the region in order to implement the ambitious plans for the construction, improvement, development of the transport infrastructure and innovations improvement. Andrei Vorobyov highlighted that "attracting the investments and taking care of the favorable investment climate should become a good habit in the work both at the level of the rural settlement and at the level of the government of the Moscow Region. In addition, it is necessary to create the best conditions for the investors in order to win in the competition". [2] The result of the constructive and well thought-out investment policy of the Government of the Moscow Region has become the high growth rates of the investment volumes by the beginning of 2015, about 600 billion rubles. The major investors in the Moscow Region are - Lukoil JSC, GC Renova , Pfizer LLC, Toyota Motor LLC, Siemens LLC and others. The interaction with the investors is conducted through the specially created Corporation for Developing the Moscow Region. During the business breakfast of the authorities of the localities near Moscow and representatives of the Russian and international business elite, held on February 18, 2015, heads of the leading companies, investors have noted the significant positive role of the work of the administrative apparatus of the region and personally governor A. Vorobyov in the field of the investments support: "Currently, thanks to governor it is easier, better and more efficiently to work. We can anticipate our business: when we get the documentation, how to connected gas and electricity as quickly as possible". [5]

The state provides the system support for the innovation business. The ties between the science and hi-tech business are strengthening.
