The Roscongress Foundation is a socially oriented non-financial development institution and a major organizer of nationwide and international conventions; exhibitions; and business, public, youth, sporting, and cultural events. It was established in pursuance of a decision by the President of the Russian Federation.

The Foundation was established in 2007 with the aim of facilitating the development of Russia’s economic potential, promoting its national interests, and strengthening the country’s image. One of the roles of the Foundation is to comprehensively evaluate, analyse, and cover issues on the Russian and global economic agendas. It also offers administrative services, provides promotional support for business projects and attracting investment, helps foster social entrepreneurship and charitable initiatives.

Each year, the Foundation’s events draw participants from 209 countries and territories, with more than 15,000 media representatives working on-site at Roscongress’ various venues. The Foundation benefits from analytical and professional expertise provided by 5,000 people working in Russia and abroad.

The Foundation works alongside various UN departments and other international organizations, and is building multi-format cooperation with 212 economic partners, including industrialists’ and entrepreneurs’ unions, financial, trade, and business associations from 86 countries worldwide, and 293 Russian public organizations, federal and regional executive and legislative bodies of the Russian Federation.

Smart Economy of the Far East: Tourism, Media, and Big Data

Building A, level 3, conference hall 2
To ensure the proper spatial development of the Far East, it is crucial to not only understand the bottlenecks of the regional economy, but also the needs of its people. This includes both consumers and businesses that are ready to meet and correctly guide consumer demand. The tourism industry, which has the highest economic multiplier, is one the main sectors that can help plan the proper spatial development of the regions of the Far East and influence the country’s economy as a whole. And big data and modern media are the main tools for this. Big data can ensure proper interaction among all the parties involved in this process: consumers, businesses, media, and the regional economy. Properly structured data exchanges make it possible to quickly and effectively determine the capabilities of regions and regulate tourist flows, prices, and consumer needs. Regions with well-developed tourism infrastructure that are able to cleverly work with big data receive a powerful economic boost that is sufficient to increase the investment appeal of the regions and even improve their demographic and migration numbers. How can we use big data and the capabilities of new media to plan the construction of new infrastructure, calculate and stimulate economic growth, and, ultimately, create a modern model of the travel and recreation industry? Should we build a marketing strategy and an attractive domestic tourism brand?
