The VNOT Youth Day is the premier event for young professionals, offering a short introduction to best practices in enhancing safety culture, productivity, and commitment to corporate goals. The theme of the 2025 Youth Day is "Sustainable and Safe Development: The Formula for the Future."
The event was attended by students from 40 leading universities in the country and more than 130 delegations of young company professionals.
Students presented the Polytechnic University Civil Engineering Institute AndInstitute of Industrial Management, Economics and Trade.
Youth Day participants had the opportunity to attend more than 20 practical sessions, business and intellectual games, take part in the online occupational safety championship "Three Shifts," and participate in interactive events from leading PPE suppliers and manufacturers.
Several competitions were held as part of Youth Day: a case championship titled "Effective Tools for Developing Human Resource Potential and Safety Culture in Organizations," a digital solutions competition titled "Safety Technologies: Digital Transformation in Occupational Safety and Human Resources Management," and an innovation competition titled "Innovations in PPE: Engineering Solutions of the Future." Over 270 teams of university students and young professionals from Russian companies applied to participate in the competitions, 37 of which advanced to the in-person final round at VNOT-2025.
Polytechnic students presented three projects, which were highly praised by the jury.
The PolySafeBot project, designed to solve a wide range of occupational safety and health problems using Telegram, took first place in the "Safety Technologies: Digital Transformation in Occupational Safety and Human Resources" category. The project was created by a team from the ISI Higher School of Technosphere Safety: Alexander Gorshkov, Anastasia Dzhur, and Arina Puchkova, and supervised by graduate student Sergey Shavurov.

The project's authors are a team from the IPMEIT Graduate School of Industrial Management: Polina Alyushkina, Daniil Plushenko, Polina Savchuk, and Anastasia Zagorodnyaya, supervised by Associate Professor Anna Timofeeva.
The project aims to prevent industrial accidents by integrating wearable sensors that monitor worker health and environmental parameters with predictive analytics on a single platform.
In the "Innovations in PPE: Engineering Solutions of the Future" category, a team of students from the Institute of Social Sciences' Higher School of Technosphere Safety took second place with their project "Hand Protection for the Far North," which provides adequate protection for a wide range of tasks in the Arctic and Far North. This project was presented by Artyom Mironov, Marina Petukhova, and Vadim Kurmyshov.
