Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University held the grand opening of the third cohort of the "Leaders of the Future St. Petersburg" educational program, which aims to develop students' leadership and entrepreneurial skills.
The program is being implemented in partnership with the Polytechnic University and was created in 2023 at the initiative of Anton Vasiliev, founder and CEO of the construction company PSK Group, and Anastasia Davydova, a methodologist for the development of leadership and entrepreneurial competencies and a resident of the New Formation Regional Center.
The program's partners are representatives of the business community:
Evgeny Koryakin, founder and CEO of ITS; Yuriy Mozheiko, Commercial Director and Partner of GLASSCON LLC; Roman Chuyko, co-owner of the Arte Group of Companies.
The new cohort brought together 170 participants—students from leading universities in St. Petersburg and other regions of Russia—who are studying in both in-person and online formats.
Dmitry Tikhonov, Vice-Rector for Continuing and Pre-University Education at SPbPU, addressed the participants with a welcoming speech, noting that the program contributes to the development of human resources in the city and country, strengthening the links between education, business, and real-world practice.
Andrey Mishkin, head of the St. Petersburg regional branch of New Formation, expressed support for the initiative, emphasizing that the development of such programs is part of New Formation's federal agenda, aimed at nurturing a new generation of entrepreneurs and public leaders who act in the interests of society and the country.
During the opening, representatives of partner companies shared personal stories and management experiences, while graduates from previous cohorts spoke about their own projects, career achievements, and the results of their participation in the program.
The "Leaders of the Future St. Petersburg" program brings together the university and the business community, creating a space where students gain not only knowledge but also the practical experience necessary to realize their leadership potential in a professional environment.
