SPbGASU and the team of the St. Petersburg Government's "PROSTO" project signed a cooperation agreement. The "PROSTO" project is being implemented by the Committee on Youth Policy and Interaction with Public Organizations.
The project's infrastructure consists of coworking spaces, which create conditions for work and business meetings in a minimal public space. The intellectual component includes events of various formats, where participants can gain new knowledge, put it into practice, connect with like-minded individuals on exciting topics, practice social engineering and youth entrepreneurship, develop their skills in information technology or business startups, and implement projects in the creative industries and new media. Over the five years of its operation, the project's coworking spaces have become an integral part of the lives of young people in the city, including students of SPbGASU.
"Our university is always open to collaboration with the city administration and has repeatedly organized competitions for the design of public spaces and urban improvements. We are open to future collaboration and offer our talented students the opportunity to join city project teams. We will actively utilize the spaces provided by the PROSTO project as part of student events and support for student associations and initiatives," noted Marina Malyutina, Vice-Rector for Youth Policy at SPbGASU.
Victoria Motorenko, head of the "Simply" project, emphasized the effectiveness of this collaboration and expressed confidence in its further development.
As a reminder, at the direction of St. Petersburg Governor Alexander Beglov, "PROSTO" youth spaces will open in all districts of the city by the end of 2027. Students from our university will assist in the design of the new spaces.
