The present invention discloses a method for electroless plating of a metal or metal alloy onto a metal or a metal alloy structure comprising a metal such as molybdenum or titanium and alloys containing such metals. The method comprises the steps of activation, treatment in an aqueous solution comprising at least one nitrogen-containing compound or a hydroxy carboxylic acid and electroless plating of a metal or metal alloy.
