Rati A.

With over 7 years of experience as an advisor within the Government of Georgia and as a consultant to private sector development projects with international organizations (GIZ, USAID), I have developed a diversified professional skillset that includes policy and strategy formulation, needs assessment and value chain assessment, design of tailored policies, tools and programs to support business sector, communication and high-level negotiations. Over the course of my career, I have successfully designed and implemented Georgia’s first governmental support agency and its programs aimed at development and internationalization of Georgian businesses (Enterprise Georgia and its programs, such as “Produce in Georgia” initiative) and launched first clustering initiatives in Georgia (Film, Furniture, Apparel and ICT)
