Deputy Prime Minister and Chief of Staff of the Government of the Russian Federation Dmitry Grigorenko at an official meeting with Deputy Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers of Turkmenistan Mammetkhan Chakyev and Minister of Communications of Turkmenistan Khadzhymyrat Khudaygulyev

Deputy Prime Minister and Chief of Staff of the Russian Government Dmitry Grigorenko paid a working visit to Turkmenistan. The trip resulted in the appointment of a "digital attaché" to promote Russian IT solutions in the country. This specialist is scheduled to arrive in Ashgabat by the end of 2025.

This measure was announced during an official meeting between the Deputy Prime Minister, Deputy Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers of Turkmenistan Mammetkhan Chakyev, and Minister of Communications of Turkmenistan Khadzhymyrat Khudaigulyev. The parties discussed specific IT projects and prospects for cooperation in the field of digitalization.

Dmitry Grigorenko emphasized that Russia has developed a developed IT sector and has demonstrated steady growth in recent years. Over the past five years, the number of accredited IT companies has doubled and now exceeds 20,000. Furthermore, the country has developed competitive IT solutions with high export potential. These include large language models, search engines, marketplaces, delivery and taxi services, antivirus software, and government information systems such as the government services portal.

To share experience and promote Russian solutions abroad, Russia is developing the institution of "digital attachés." Currently, these specialists work in 19 countries, including China, Malaysia, the UAE, Argentina, Indonesia, and the Republic of Cuba. Their responsibilities include supporting the conclusion and management of export contracts for Russian electronic products, software, and other IT solutions.

"Experience from recent international trips has shown that Russian IT solutions are in high demand not only domestically but also among international partners. We intend to support this interest, and the digital attaché service is one of the tools for effectively promoting domestic IT projects abroad. The appointment of such a specialist to Turkmenistan is a confident step toward strengthening the mutually beneficial technological partnership between our countries," noted Dmitry Grigorenko.

During his visit, the Deputy Prime Minister also gave a lecture to students at the Institute of Telecommunications and Informatics of Turkmenistan. His speech focused on the key challenges and prospects of digitalization.

Dmitry Grigorenko emphasized that, on September 1, Russian universities launched enhanced educational programs to train world-class specialists in information technology and artificial intelligence. A key feature of the new programs is the participation of industrial partners and businesses. As part of their collaboration with universities, companies are sending their employees as instructors, incorporating real-world business cases and practical tasks into the curriculum, organizing internships for students, and participating in assessing students' skills during final assessments.

This academic year, at least 2,400 students will begin their studies in the Top-IT program, and at least 3,800 students in the Top-AI program. The program, which trains highly qualified IT personnel, has been launched at 26 Russian universities, while the program, which trains advanced specialists in artificial intelligence, has been launched at 22 universities. The project includes not only universities in Moscow and St. Petersburg, but also major regional universities.

International students studying at Russian universities can also participate in programs to train highly qualified IT personnel.

A team of students from the Financial University who worked on a Moscow Exchange project was named a finalist in the Finopolis.365 Youth Program. Six of the 45 teams selected for the semifinals following regional case championships won prizes.

In the grand final, the Financial University team, Olga Kotenko, Milena Aslitdinova, and Antonina Nekhaeva, presented a service concept – an AI assistant for managing a private investor's stock portfolio. Moscow Exchange experts Timur Redzhepov and Anton Abdulgalimov supervised the development of the case.

Viktor Zhidkov, Chairman of the Board of Moscow Exchange:

"The Finopolis.365 youth program is a unique opportunity for both participants and partner companies to collaborate on new ideas and solve real business problems. It is through such live interaction that promising financial technologies emerge. As the infrastructure company for the Russian financial market, the exchange is interested in growing the number of young, motivated, and talented professionals who want to develop services for investors. These are the participants who advanced to the semifinals and finals of the competition, presenting well-developed service concepts with clear implementation prospects. I am delighted to see the Moscow Exchange team among the winners, and I congratulate our participants and mentors on such an outstanding result!"

The Finopolis.365 youth program is a series of competitions run by the Bank of Russia, where young professionals develop their own fintech projects. University students and young professionals under 25 solve real-world problems—cases from leading financial market companies. Mentors from the case-creating companies assist participants throughout their work. In 2025, the Finopolis.365 case championships were held in the Sirius federal territory, Vladivostok, Chelyabinsk, Moscow, St. Petersburg, Tomsk, and Samara. A total of 483 participants competed, solving cases from 12 partner companies.

Moscow Exchange offered four case studies to Finopolis.365 participants in the thematic tracks "Artificial Intelligence" and "Data Exchange." More than 10 teams worked on the exchange's projects, five of which advanced to the semifinals, which took place on October 8-9 as part of the Finopolis 2025 forum.

Moscow Exchange is Russia's largest exchange and the only multifunctional platform for trading stocks, bonds, derivatives, currencies, money market instruments, and commodities. The Moscow Exchange Group includes a central depository and a clearing center that acts as a central counterparty in the markets, enabling Moscow Exchange to provide its clients with a full range of trading and post-trading services.

The 13th meeting of the Intergovernmental Commission on Economic Cooperation was held in Ashgabat under the co-chairmanship of Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Marat Khusnullin and Deputy Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers of Turkmenistan Nokerguly Atagulyev.

"Today, we are holding the first full-scale meeting of the Intergovernmental Russian-Turkmen Commission on Economic Cooperation in its new composition. We are committed to actively working to deepen trade, economic, cultural, and humanitarian cooperation between our countries and to implement major mutually beneficial projects. Overall, Russian-Turkmen cooperation has a solid foundation and continues to grow dynamically. Trade turnover has grown by more than 30% in the first seven months of this year. It is important to continue increasing trade turnover, including through the possibility of Russian marketplaces entering the Turkmen market. We also collaborate on issues of industry, energy, culture, and education," said Marat Khusnullin.

During the meeting, significant attention was devoted to the development of transport infrastructure. Measures are being implemented to increase transportation by rail, road, and air. Work continues on developing the North-South international transport corridor.

The Deputy Prime Minister also acknowledged the successful presence of Russian business in key sectors of the Turkmen economy, noting that Russian companies such as KAMAZ have been operating in Turkmenistan for many years, and that Russian companies supply equipment and perform complex repairs in the oil and gas sector.

"The Russian market is a priority for us. We are interested in both importing and exporting our products, and we see significant potential for developing cooperation in industry, digitalization, and agriculture. We will also facilitate joint events for the business communities of both countries. In education, we are interested in exploring Russian digital solutions to create a unified educational system. The protocol of today's meeting covers all areas of bilateral relations, and we will make every effort to implement the planned measures," said Nokerguly Atagulyev.

Following the meeting, a package of documents was signed, including the minutes of the intergovernmental commission meeting, action plans for cooperation between the Russian Ministry of Education and Science and Turkmenistan's Ministry of Education, and between Rosreestr and the Ministry of Agriculture of Turkmenistan. Additionally, an agreement on technological and marketing cooperation between the St. Petersburg and Turkmenistan Commodity and Raw Materials Exchanges was signed, as well as an agreement between the customs services of the two countries on streamlining customs procedures for the movement of goods and transport services between Russia and Turkmenistan. Three memorandums on cooperation in equestrian sports and horse breeding were also signed.

More than 50 representatives from relevant agencies and companies participated in the commission's work on the Russian side. The intergovernmental commission also included talks between the St. Petersburg administration and the Ashgabat mayor's office.

Marat Khusnullin also held a working meeting with Turkmen President Serdar Berdimuhamedov. The Deputy Prime Minister expressed gratitude to the Turkmen head of state for the opportunity to discuss strategic partnership between the countries. They discussed prospects for cooperation in key sectors. The parties also discussed transportation issues, as well as the shallowing of the Caspian Sea, and outlined avenues for further cooperation.

"The leaders of our countries – Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin and Serdar Gurbangulyevich Berdimuhamedov – are constantly focused on strengthening bilateral relations. This year, we celebrated the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War together. We appreciate that in Turkmenistan, like in Russia, we cherish the memory of the courage and heroism of our ancestors who fought together against fascism," the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.

During his working visit to Turkmenistan, Marat Khusnullin also visited the new smart city of Arkadag, where he learned about the experience of his Turkmen colleagues in housing construction, integrated territorial development, and public amenities. The visit also included a visit to the Aba Annayev International Horse Breeding Academy, the city circus, and the country's main mosque, Turkmenbashi Ruhy, in the village of Kipchak.

SPbGASU held the first All-Russian Case Championship in Transport Logistics.

Participants of the championship

The in-person round of the first All-Russian Case Championship in Transport Logistics concluded at St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering (SPbGASU). Eight teams of fourth-year students majoring in logistics and transport solved three practical cases from industry partners.

Vice-Rector for Youth Policy Marina Malyutina emphasized that case championships have become commonplace at SPbGASU. The university has been using this format for over ten years, creating a platform for interaction between business representatives and students. Marina Viktorovna compared case championships to a tuning fork for assessing the quality of education – they allow one to assess how well educational programs meet the needs of the labor market.

The teams were assigned cases by lottery. They had 45 minutes to solve and graphically present their answers. They then presented their answers to the jury.

Tatyana Komarova, Head of the Transportation Department at St. Petersburg State Unitary Enterprise "Passazhiravtotrans," presented a case study in the "Transport Organization" category. The assignment was to develop an efficient transportation system for guests of a major music festival held over three days at the Igora Drive circuit. The challenge was unique in that spectators arrive gradually and depart simultaneously. To solve the problem, the students used a combined system (rail and shuttle buses).

A case study in the "Courier Delivery" category was presented by Alexey Chudov, Head of Vertical Operations Development at Petrovich Construction Trading House. The students worked on a small-size cargo delivery model, managed risks, and created an optimal solution from a technical perspective.

Anton Valshin, Deputy General Director for Transportation at Tretiy Park Joint-Stock Company, presented a case study in the "New Route" category. The speaker described the situation: Tretiy Park JSC plans to open a new route and utilize its current fleet. The students were asked to consider how to implement this plan most effectively.

Our university's team, "ADF – Road to the Future," won the "Transfer Organization" category. Team captain Ksenia Shatokhina described the strengths of the solution: "We ensured there were enough parking spaces for everyone and everyone was happy. We selected the optimal route, the number and ratio of different modes of transport, and developed a schedule to avoid traffic congestion and passenger congestion."

Ksenia Nuzhnaya, the SPbGASU team's mentor and senior lecturer in the Department of Transport Systems and Road and Bridge Construction, noted the benefits of the case championship: "The students strengthened their theoretical foundation by completing practical assignments. They learned about the challenges and problems facing businesses in their fields of study. They gained valuable experience and additional knowledge. All of this will definitely help them in their job search and interviews."

Sergey Maevsky, chairman of the jury and advisor to the general director for technical issues at St. Petersburg State Unitary Enterprise "Passazhiravtotrans," noted the high level of the participants. According to Sergey Vasilyevich, some of the answers were unexpected and creative.

The contestants enjoyed the opportunity to receive feedback, interact with company representatives, and explore future jobs. They also enjoyed a tour of St. Petersburg's historic center and a visit to the ABZ-1 facility, the company whose case they had solved in the remote round.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The all-season resort "Okhta Park" hosted the Baltic Regional Investment Forum BRIEF'25, organized by the Leningrad Region Economic Development Agency. The forum traditionally served as a platform for discussing industrial policy, business-education collaboration, and attracting young professionals to the region's real economy.

Students and faculty from the Institute of Industrial Management, Economics, and Trade and the Institute of Secondary Vocational Education participated in the forum's youth track. The IPMEiT student delegation was led by Anton Shaban and Natalia Smirnova, faculty from the Higher School of Industrial Management. The ISPO students worked with Irina Zaychenko, Head of the Educational Programs Directorate, and Sergei Smirnov, Head of Industrial Training.

Students solved management cases as part of the interactive event "Mentor's Day" and presented their ideas for developing the human resources and marketing potential of industrial enterprises.

Sergey Ryzhov, CEO of the MICE Market business events agency, expert council member, and program director of the Open Industry accelerator at the Agency for Strategic Initiatives, presented a master class titled "Industrial Tourism as a Tool for Implementing Enterprise Business Strategies." The forum included a direct dialogue with representatives of leading enterprises in the Leningrad Region.

The students were particularly interested in the master class "Marketing and Promoting a Manufacturing Enterprise Using Video Content," led by Anton Shaban and Natalia Smirnova, professors at the Higher School of Industrial Management. The master class was organized as a competitive team game, during which students collaborated with representatives of Leningrad Region enterprises to develop short videos to promote industrial businesses in regional and international markets. This format allowed the participants to gain hands-on experience with modern digital marketing tools and video content for the industrial sector.

Following the event, Polytechnic students took prizes as part of interuniversity teams alongside students from the St. Petersburg State University of Economics and the Higher School of Economics.

"I am grateful to Anastasia Mikhalchenko, Director of the Leningrad Region Economic Development Agency, for the invitation to BRIEF'25. I am pleased that the students of the Institute of Secondary Vocational Education demonstrated their skills, completing complex tasks assigned by representatives of the real economy under the careful mentorship of more senior students of the Institute of Secondary Vocational Education and Technology," noted Irina Zaychenko, Head of the Educational Programs Directorate at the Institute of Secondary Vocational Education.

We took part in a unique event! We solved practical cases and explored innovative business ideas. A highlight was creating videos for real businesses. The masterclass produced compelling videos that demonstrated how the fresh perspective and energy of young people can help advance modern manufacturing projects, the Polytechnic students shared their impressions.

BRIEF'25 once again confirmed its role as a key regional platform for the exchange of experience between government, business, and educational organizations, providing students with the opportunity to apply their knowledge to real-world cases and gain practical skills in demand in the modern industrial market.
