TORONTO, ON. , May 18, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Agora Holdings Inc. (OTC PINK: AGHI) (the “Company”) today announced that ESILKROAD NETWORK LIMITED, a limited partnership incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong and its controlled subsidiary, eSilkroad of Ukraine, an entity formed and operating in the Ukraine, have secured membership and development partnerships for the pilot testing of the eSilkroad B2B networking platform in each of Russia, Poland, Nigeria and Kazakhstan.  This adds to the existing collaborative partnership between the Ukraine and China, the two founding partner countries in the eSilkroad B2B social networking project.

Working in partnership with the SRCIC (www.srcic.com), a transnational business confederation mainly composed of national commercial associations of the Silk Road countries with the Chambers of Commerce & Industry in each of the aforementioned countries, eSilkroad Network has secured letters of intent for the participation of these four additional countries in the pilot testing of the site expected later this year. A memorandum of understanding is also underway for the Croatian Chamber of Commerce.

Ruben Yakubov, the Company’s president stated, “As we move towards expanding the member nations for the eSilkroad B2B platform and the anticipated pilot testing of the proprietary platform later this year, we are excited to see so many “silkroad” countries sharing our ultimate vision of a functional social and ecommerce global platform.  The facilitation of a communication platform to advance trade, investment and  professional services between all the member countries is the end goal of our developing web-based portal.”

Agora Holdings recently entered into agreements to acquire Esilkroad Network and wholly owned subsidiary eSilkroad Ukraine.  Formal closing of the acquisition is anticipated this May once registration of the change of ownership is complete in each of the required jurisdictions. Management is already working with management of eSilkroad to continue to advance membership in the pending pilot launch of eSilknet later this year.
