On September 4, 2025, the State University of Management hosted a presentation of the acceleration program “Spectrum of Innovations”, conducted by the university as part of the federal project “Technologies”.

Vice-Rector Dmitry Bryukhanov addressed the audience with a welcoming speech:

"We have integrated the accelerator program into the students' project-based learning, which provides additional opportunities without increasing the academic workload. In addition, we plan to gradually develop the accelerator to the defense of projects within the framework of the Startup as a Diploma competition, the winner of which this year was our student with an innovative development. This once again shows that the university's infrastructure allows us to implement any plans, create prototypes and products, and find external investors. I urge you to make the most of these opportunities," the vice-rector concluded.

Yulia Vorokhob, an expert at the Open Innovations startup studio and senior tracker for the 2025 Spectrum of Innovations Acceleration Program, spoke in more detail about the accelerator’s operating principles and its benefits for students:

"The accelerator is aimed at helping you as managers feel and understand the importance of digitalization and a product approach in any area of activity. There are many cases where projects that started in student days have reached the global level and brought success to their creators. If 20 years ago, you had to look for funds and start in a garage, today you have a safe accelerator environment where you can use the university's resources, receive support and develop something new, relying on someone else's experience."

The organizers did not limit themselves to theory and invited Varvara Karamysheva, a graduate of the State University of Management, a multiple participant in accelerators and winner of various project competitions, to the meeting. The girl told how she created her projects, how the accelerator helped her and how to bring projects to physical implementation.

"You won't be able to bring a project to perfection the first time. You need experience, long-term work, analysis of mistakes and constant improvement of your product. This is exactly what an accelerator is for: it will help develop strengths, get an external assessment and get rid of fantasies. Today, we are negotiating with a large company about joint implementation of one startup and received a grant of 1 million rubles to implement another project. Looking back, I understand that it all started with the first call with our supervisor in the first year of the State University of Management and his words that we are starting to make startups."

At the end of the event, the director of the project office of the State University of Management Anastasia Lobacheva summed up the meeting and called on the students to use the opportunity provided by the university to prove themselves in the entrepreneurial sphere and get the most out of their studies.
