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.

Central Asia: Key to the Development of International Projects in the Electric Power Industry

Manege, –2nd floor, conference hall A

There is a clear upward trend in relations between Moscow and the countries of Central Asia. Previously unfulfilled, the cooperation potential between the countries is growing across the board: mutually beneficial trade and economic relations are strengthening, as is cooperation in the energy sector. Additionally, Russia has particular interest in the Central Asian countries it perceives as guarantors of stability in the region. In order to support developing countries in the dissemination of digital technologies and the construction of power grids, projects are being implemented to introduce digital technologies that have already shown success in developed countries. As such, electric power facilities are being built under mutual agreements. Responsibilities and costs are shared between partner countries, and the technologies’ efficiency is demonstrated through their application in practice. Russia is involved in a huge number of megaprojects, on which further improvements in quality of life and the economies of developing countries depend. What support measures and mechanisms can serve as an additional incentive for investors? What funding channels are available to Russian companies? What should we consider when implementing international projects in third countries to construct power grids? Which Russian manufacturers of electrical equipment can break into foreign markets?
