From September 1st to 7th, the OstroVa youth forum was held on Sakhalin Island, bringing together over 400 participants from across Russia. It served as a platform for the exchange of experiences, ideas, and professional contacts between representatives of three groups: Students, Working Youth, and the First Movement. Participants attended lectures and master classes led by experts, participated in project sessions, visited leading regional enterprises, and learned about modern development initiatives for Sakhalin and the Russian Far East.
The Novosibirsk delegation was represented by active and promising young people from the region—primarily NSU students and graduates interested in collaboration and professional growth.
Maxim Yemelyanov, a master's student at the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics, noted that the forum was not only educational but also inspiring for him:
"OstroVa" is a space for professional networking and friendships. I participated for the second time: last year, in the UAV track, and this year, in the artificial intelligence track. Sakhalin has impressive opportunities: IT, hydrogen energy, and scientific projects are developing here. Particularly interesting was exploring the SakhalinTech campus and local businesses. And in the evenings, there were concerts and festivals—the atmosphere was incredible, as was the island's natural beauty.
At the forum, Maxim presented a project for using unmanned aerial vehicles in tourism, which received high praise from experts.
The OstroVa Forum annually attracts young professionals, students, and entrepreneurs from across Russia, bringing together education, creativity, and teamwork in a single space.
