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 208 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 180 economic partners, including industrialists’ and entrepreneurs’ unions, financial, trade, and business associations from 81 countries worldwide, and 186 Russian public organizations, federal and legislative agencies, and federal subjects.

Growth Points: At the Start of the Science and Technology Decade
The Znanie Society could become an excellent platform for communication between the customer and scientist. Both sides could share their perspectives, priorities, problems, and requirements. And in particular, the customers could of course explain where their main deficits, problems and challenges lie, and could talk about their proposals and opportunities for scientists. I would say that this idea for the platform should become a reality during this decad

Growth Points: At the Start of the Science and Technology Decade
The profession of scientist should be seen as one of the most important. That does not mean that it should become totally accessible, but there should be a perception that anyone can become a scientist. It’s a tough road. Not everyone is destined to be a great scientist. Just like in the Soviet Union, not everyone could become a cosmonaut. But everyone wanted to become one. Well, everyone should want to become a scientist, and understand how important the profession is to the country today, and how the future depends on the work done by them

Growth Points: At the Start of the Science and Technology Decade
Of course, the current circumstances are presenting enormous opportunities for science and the application of research. And I think there is no doubt that Russian scientists and entrepreneurs will be equal to the task of both import substitution, and often, as the President said, in terms of creating something new, i.e. reaching a new level through domestic developments and technologies. Our objective for the decade is to capitalize on this impulse and make an entire trend out of it. In this sense, we really need to make science a focal point – something which is seen as prestigious, popular, and crucial, so that everyone will be proud of our scientists and accomplishments. And fortunately, we have plenty to be proud about – we don’t have to fabricate anything

Facing East: How Can Young People Find Their Feet on the Labour Market?
It’s essential to differentiate between enlightenment and education. <...> The mission of enlightenment is to ensure that the correct educational path is selected. And that is very much the essence of career guidance – working out where you want to invest your time to develop. By constantly studying the world in this way, you’ll gain an understanding of what it is you find interesting. We have conducted research amongst school pupils and students, and have found that this is their main request when it comes to content, to information

Somebody made a point that young people do not want to study. <…> We became victims of this view as well. <…> We thought our first marathon would get 5 million views – 10 million at best. It gained 70 million. <…> We <…> have been able to find the right approach <…> mostly because there is a demand for it. Young people show a demand for this type of content. <…> We need to be constantly exceeding expectations, creating a ‘wow’ effect, and surprising our audience, because it is TikTok, YouTube, Instagram and all the entertainment platforms we are competing with. <…> We need to be where young people are. We need to be what people want us to be. We need to be cooler, snappier and more interesting than bloggers

Identifying Opportunities for Young People in the Far East
A lot of information is available. <…> However, too much information is similar to its absence. It is really hard to find way around today’s diverse content. <…> Why can’t YouTube become the ultimate solution for education and learning? It is impossible to find an educational track there. <…> Everything boils down to influential navigation or recommendations. We <…> do our best to make relevant, important, meaningful, true-to-fact and efficient content, which you do not have to search for and can make your way around
