The park focuses on nanotechnologies, electronics, biomedicine, pharmaceutics, fine chemicals, optics and mechanical engineering. The plan is that it will sell products to CIS and EU countries. Belarus President Aliaksandr Lukashenka stated earlier he would not rule out that the park could host companies working for the military-industrial sector.
