From February 3rd to 5th, the 6th TRIZ Session of the Rostec State Corporation was held at the Graduate School of Management at RUDN University. The event brought together over 50 leading specialists from 37 of the Corporation's organizations, representing various regions of Russia. All participants were graduates and top students of the Rostec State Corporation's TRIZ School, highlighting the high level of professional training in innovation.
The "Methods and Practices of Modern Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ)" program has been successfully implemented at RUDN University since 2018. The anniversary session was devoted to a key topic for the defense industry: "Development and Management of R&D Programs."
The "appearance" of a promising product
Over the course of three days, participants engaged in intensive individual and group work. The focus was on developing a vision for a promising product, constructing problem and solution maps, and managing technology readiness levels. Particular attention was paid to feasibility studies and comparing alternative versions of research and development programs.
Anna Aleksandrovna Ostrovskaya, Director of the RUDN University Graduate School of Management, noted the significance of the university's long-standing partnership with the company: "It is a great honor for the RUDN University Graduate School of Management to serve as an educational and expert platform for the Rostec State Corporation. For seven years, we have witnessed how the TRIZ methodology studied at our university is being translated into real-world engineering and management solutions at enterprises across the country. We are proud that our graduates not only possess the necessary tools but also form a professional community capable of solving problems of any complexity in the interests of Russia's technological sovereignty. Holding such sessions is the best example of the integration of academic knowledge and industrial necessity."
Innovation Management
Session participants not only applied their acquired knowledge in practice by developing relevant projects but also shared experiences in implementing TRIZ initiatives. During the discussions, promising tasks for the further development of the community were identified.
Alexander Ivanovich Kashirin, Head of the Department of Innovative Management and Foreign Economic Activity in Industry at the Higher School of Management and Deputy Director of the Scientific and Technical Council of the Rostec State Corporation, emphasized the strategic role of TRIZ in innovation management:
"The main result of our joint work is the formation of a unified conceptual framework and design culture within the Corporation. Today, TRIZ is not just an inventor's tool, but a powerful technology for managing complexity, allowing us to move from isolated solutions to systemic design of the future. We teach our specialists to see contradictions not as problems, but as a resource for development. This approach allows us to reduce timelines and improve the efficiency of R&D, which is critical in today's economy."
