On January 27, as part of the International KVN Team Festival "KiViN-2026," the Plenary Session of the 5th All-Russian Forum "KVN – School of Leaders" was held, co-organized by the State University of Management.

The discussion was attended by Deputy Minister of Science and Higher Education Andrey Omelchuk, Rector of the State University of Management Vladimir Stroyev, General Director of the TTO "AMiK" Alexander Maslyakov, as well as heads of leading universities and federal youth projects.

The central theme of the meeting was systemic cooperation between the government, universities, and creative industries. During the discussion, KVN was presented not simply as a creative outlet, but as an effective educational tool. Experts noted that participation in the movement allows students to develop key management competencies: leadership, stress resilience, teamwork, and decision-making skills on a tight deadline.

Particular attention was paid to the results of the Methodological Center for the Study and Development of the KVN Movement (the Center), which opened at the State University of Management exactly one year ago. Since then, the Center has become a full-fledged "foothold" for universities across the country, developing a methodological foundation and helping to build high-quality youth outreach, with the State University of Management cementing its status as a flagship of this process.

In 2025, the Center held two All-Russian KVN Schools, 24 online seminars, and several large forums, reaching a total of approximately 2,500 people. Plans include further expanding educational programs for KVN leaders, strengthening interregional ties, and developing the game as a key social asset for Russian students.

Let's remember that GUU is also known for its KVN League and its teams, one of which will compete in the Major League this season.

On January 21, the final of the annual city competition "Miss and Mister Students of Moscow" took place, timed to coincide with Russian Students' Day.

Twenty finalists from 17 Moscow universities performed on the stage of the Moscow Concert Hall. The State University of Management was represented by Alexander Tavadze, a third-year student at the Institute of Marketing and Mr. GUU 2024.

Over 100 students from over 60 Moscow universities participated in this year's qualifying round. Each contestant presented a creative performance, and then the 40 semifinalists competed in five challenges: intellectual, culinary, athletic, creative, and dance.

The final stage took the form of a gala concert, which transformed into a true story about Moscow. The audience witnessed a show where the city became a grand stage, giving everyone a chance to express themselves. The creative youth embodied the energy of the metropolis—its rhythm, aspirations, and hopes. All numbers were performed to live music.

In the Year of Defender of the Fatherland and the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War, the State University of Management hosted the Student Interregional Historical Ball "Inspiration," organized by the Student Council of the Institute of Distance Education (FIZ GUU) with grant support from the Federal Agency for Youth Affairs.

A lavish ballroom celebration featuring reenactments of authentic ballroom dances and depictions of various historical eras in honor of Heroes of the Fatherland Day, which we will celebrate on December 9, brought together enthusiasts from all corners of the country. As per tradition, the regional public organization for the support of intellectuals and entrepreneurs, "Planet-Golden Club," under the direction of Elena Zhukova, played an active role in the preparation and hosting of the ball.

We hope that such patriotic events, involving young people from various regions of our country, will become a good tradition at our university. Given the high social significance of such events, the GUU Institute of Distance Education invites everyone interested in and close to this area of activity to join our enthusiasts in organizing future events aimed at the benefit of the Fatherland."

From November 24 to 29, 2025, an international industry internship, organized by the Dynamics of Mobility Educational and Methodological Center, took place in Beijing. The event was attended by a Russian delegation, including representatives of the Russian State Research Center NAMI, as well as students, faculty, and researchers from more than ten leading Russian universities training personnel for the domestic automotive industry. Vladimir Filatov, Director of the Engineering Project Management Center, represented the State University of Management at the internship.

From the office to the climate chamber

The program included visits to key players in the Chinese automotive industry. Delegates learned about the operations of the engineering company IAT, visiting its headquarters and innovation labs, including VR zones and climate chambers, and discussing vehicle design processes. Participants also visited the Beifang Group's education center, where they learned about modern engineering training methods and equipment, and the BAIC plant, which specializes in SUV production.

The internship provided Russian specialists and students with the opportunity to gain first-hand experience with advanced technologies, production, and educational practices in the Chinese automotive industry, as well as establish professional contacts for future collaboration. The event made a significant contribution to the development of scientific, technical, and educational partnerships between Russia and China in the automotive sector.

From license to leadership

Over the past ten years, the Chinese automotive industry has made a leap from licensed production to world-class, in-house development. This reflects a global trend: technological leadership is gradually shifting toward China. The largest Chinese automakers long ago stopped copying Western designs. Today, they are developing their own architectures, platforms, and designs, demonstrating particularly strong leadership in the electric and hybrid vehicle segments, which account for nearly 60% of global sales.

The success of the Chinese auto industry is built on four powerful pillars: government and corporate support, the development of domestic battery production (CATL, CALB), flexible and locally integrated supply chains, and a rapid pace of model lineup innovation—new generations of cars appear every two to three years. Recently, our president, in an interview with Nomad TV, praised the Chinese auto industry: "Products have begun to appear in the People's Republic of China that are more competitive than European ones. The latest example is electric cars. Well, the Chinese make them better and cheaper than the Europeans. The European auto industry is simply crumbling," Vladimir Putin said. And we at the State University of Management are always ready to adopt and improve on the best global practices.

The results of the first All-Russian Space Dictation, organized as part of the federal project "Personnel for Space," have been announced. The top three finishers were young researchers from the State University of Management—graduate students Nikita Akinshin and Vladimir Kutkov.

Over a thousand people from across Russia participated in the event—students, young professionals, and anyone passionate about space and science. Each participant has already received a personalized certificate. The organizers expressed special gratitude to the universities whose students demonstrated the greatest participation: the First Management University, Lomonosov Moscow State University (MSU), Moscow Automobile and Road Construction State Technical University (MADI), Russian State Hydrometeorological University (RSHU), and St. Petersburg State University of Aerospace Instrumentation (SUAI).

Winners were determined by the number of correct answers: one question = one point. The competition demanded not only knowledge but also speed—in cases of ties, the time it took to submit the work was taken into account; in some cases, the difference was literally a few seconds.

Our colleagues, graduate students Nikita Akinshin and Vladimir Kutkov, took the lead in the race, receiving a navigator's watch from the "Gagarin" series as a prize. Everyone who made it into the top 30 received special certificates, as well as prizes and gifts from the federal project "Personnel for Space."

Alexander Vedekhin, administrator of the Russian Ministry of Education and Science's federal project "Personnel for Space," thanked all participants, organizers, partners, and universities for their contribution to the development of scientific and technical culture and their support of interest in space: "We hope the All-Russian Space Dictation will become an important educational initiative that will unite students and young professionals from across the country. Thanks to this event, thousands of participants across our country will not only test their knowledge of space but also foster interest in scientific and technical creativity. I am confident that this will help us all prepare a new generation of engineers and specialists capable of solving the strategic challenges of the Russian space industry and ensuring the country's technological leadership in the future."

We heartily congratulate our winners! GUU is the best again!

Vladimir Stroyev, Rector of the State University of Management, along with his colleagues—heads of universities, business leaders, and legislators—are restoring the term "mentor" to its original meaning: a wise mentor willing to share their wealth of experience and knowledge with their students.

The organizers of the gala event "Creators. Rosmolodezh.Entrepreneur and Rosmolodezh.Profi" offered the first such opportunity to top Russian managers by creating a "Mentoring Lounge" for personal interaction with young entrepreneurs, professionals, and those still learning to be one.

This innovative, dynamic format includes several expert zones, each dedicated to a specific area of expertise. It is based on a rotation system: each half-hour round is divided into three parts. During each 10-minute interval, a mentor advises one participant, with the dialogue centered around the participant's request, even if it doesn't fit into the overall program.

"The 'Mentor's Lounge' project is aimed at developing entrepreneurial skills in young people. I discussed a wide range of topics with the students: for example, how to apply their technological skills in management or how to scale a business," our rector explained.

In addition, the "Creators" event included master classes, sessions, a prize draw, and a "Youth Market" exhibition, where you could purchase products from all over the country.

Students from the State University of Management took an active part in the business program of the 7th International Municipal Forum (IMF) of the BRICS countries, which brought together experts, government representatives, and business representatives from more than 70 countries in St. Petersburg.

The forum's primary objective was to promote the socioeconomic development of urban spaces through an open exchange of best practices and innovative solutions. Discussions focused on key aspects of urban governance: from infrastructure modernization and digital transformation to environmental, economic, cultural, and educational issues. Particular emphasis was placed on developing international partnerships and strengthening humanitarian ties between countries.

Our students—Danila Yakovlev, a Master's student in the Sustainable Development Management program, and Katerina Sukmanova, a Master's student in the Hotel Management program—presented at the plenary sessions "The Impact of Universities on Sustainable Urban Development" and "International Tourism in a Multipolar World." During the discussions, the participants discussed the successful experience of the Russian Ministry of Education and Science, including the "Startup as a Diploma" program. As a result, Bashir Abbas, General Advisor to the Federation of Rectors of Russian and Arab Universities, Samahi, invited the young scientists to a conference in Egypt. Furthermore, a productive dialogue on waste recycling issues took place with the mayor of a Brazilian city, Eder Miano Pereira.

"We are confident that the knowledge gained and new contacts will form the basis for further international cooperation and practical development of SUM projects," our students noted.

It's worth noting that the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Federal Agency for CIS Affairs, and the St. Petersburg government provided extensive organizational support for the forum, and the event's business program was held at the modern Nevskaya Ratusha complex. As for SUM, our university community continues to strengthen its unique research position, demonstrating expertise in sustainable development and international cooperation.
