IN Museum of Entrepreneurs, Patrons and Philanthropists On July 23, the exhibition "Rediscover Russian PR" will open. The exposition will introduce visitors to the history of public relations in Russia and show how the reputations of domestic entrepreneurs and industrialists were formed, destroyed and restored.

"By studying the origins of entrepreneurial activity, Moscow entrepreneurs will be able to learn not only about the legacy of business culture, but also find inspiration and practical guidelines for modern business communications. Such projects form the value of continuity and strengthen the connection between generations," she noted.

Kristina Kostroma, Head of the Department of Entrepreneurship and Innovative Development of the City of Moscow.

The exhibition is based on the study and analysis of primary sources — business press, memoirs, materials from industrialists’ congresses, and other historical documents. Among them are more than a thousand newspaper issues from 1861–1917, including Moskovskiye Vedomosti, Russkoye Slovo, Golos Moskvy, Birzhevye Vedomosti, and Kommersant.

The exhibition includes stands describing historical cases from the second half of the 19th and early 20th centuries in the areas of education, patronage and social support. They feature examples of press publications, early press releases and anti-crisis PR campaigns from past eras. The exhibition will reveal the PR tools of Russian entrepreneurs — from creating a personal brand to influencing public opinion and government decisions.

Examples include the educational project “Agronomic Train,” which clearly demonstrated modern agricultural technologies to farmers, the anti-crisis media strategy in the Savva Mamontov case, which influenced public perception of the trial, and the activities of the first advertising agencies, which were engaged not only in advertising, but also in promoting news items.

"The practice and history of Russian PR is currently taught only in specialized educational institutions, and, unfortunately, we are still learning from Western examples. Meanwhile, a huge number of Russian entrepreneurs have contributed to the development of the economy, education, and culture. Our task as a museum is to continue and support research in this area, as well as in other insufficiently studied areas, such as the experience of building entrepreneurial dynasties," emphasized Nadezhda Smirnova, director of the Museum of Entrepreneurs, Patrons, and Philanthropists, member of the Moscow Council of Entrepreneurs.

The exhibition will last until September 1. To visit, you must purchase a ticket to the Museum of Entrepreneurs, Patrons and Philanthropists, which includes a comprehensive tour. It includes a viewing of the permanent exhibition, as well as materials from the exhibition "Rediscover Russian PR".

The organizers of the exhibition were the digital agency Interium, the Museum of Entrepreneurs, Patrons and Philanthropists, members of the Council of Entrepreneurs of the City of Moscow, participants of the working group on PR and advertising, operating at the site of the capital headquarters for business protection.

The Business Protection Headquarters, subordinate to the Department of Entrepreneurship and Innovative Development of the City of Moscow, ensures the processing of individual requests from Moscow entrepreneurs, facilitates the resolution of systemic issues and builds effective communication between businesses and government bodies. More detailed information about the work of the headquarters is available at website and by phone number: 7 495 620-20-45.

To do this, specialists conduct environmental monitoring of air, ground and surface water, and soil analysis. All samples are examined in independent laboratories. Most often, such testing is used when tunneling, which affects the territories of national parks or protected areas. Thus, it was carried out during the construction of the Big Ring Line (BCL), when tunnel boring machines worked under the territories of nature conservation areas and repeatedly crossed the water area of the Moscow River.

After work, builders remove and dispose of all waste, including soil. For example, at the ZIL station Trinity line To create the pits and reversible culverts, it was necessary to remove a total of almost 400 thousand cubic meters of earth.

After the work is completed, green spaces are restored. Thus, more than 600 bushes and trees will be planted near the Stolbovo electric depot, and about 1.4 thousand in TiNAO. Among the already implemented projects, one can highlight the improvement of the adjacent territory of the Kuntsevskaya station of the Big Circle Line. Almost 300 trees and 2.5 thousand bushes were planted here – a new park for citizens to relax appeared.

Construction of monolithic structures of the Lipovaya Roshcha metro station has begunSergei Sobyanin: The first metro train arrived at the Stolbovo electric depot under construction

"We minimize harm to the animal world. For example, trees and bushes are cut down before the nesting period. Grass is not burned and chemical reagents are not used," added Sergei Sobyanin.

All these measures help to avoid negative impacts on the environment and the health of construction workers, passengers and metro personnel.

Specialists from the capital's municipal services complex will update in-house gas supply systems in 467 apartment buildings. The work will be carried out within the framework of capital repair programsThis was reported by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Housing and Public Utilities and Improvement Petr Biryukov.

"The capital's capital repair program is one of the most significant housing modernization projects not only in Russia, but also in the world. We are carrying out work to update not only the exterior of the building: the facade, roof and entrance group, but also the engineering systems. During the program's implementation, we have completed capital repairs of in-house gas supply systems in 2,343 apartment buildings. This year, work is planned for another 467, and it has already been completed at 301 facilities," noted Pyotr Biryukov.

Timely repair of equipment is important for its safe operation and organization of uninterrupted gas supply. In their work, specialists use modern technical solutions. For example, they use ball valves with three degrees of protection against accidental opening. They limit the flow of gas in case of equipment failure and temperature exposure. In addition, flexible gas piping made of stainless steel with PVC coating and a dielectric insert are installed in houses. This is done to protect against external influences and to eliminate an emergency situation when stray currents appear.

Gas risers inside an apartment building are common property, so apartment owners must promptly provide specialists with access to the work sites.

According to current regulations, the service life of an in-house gas pipeline is 30 years. After this time, the equipment wears out and requires replacement.

The regional program for capital repairs of housing stock being implemented in the capital corresponds to the goals and objectives of the national project "Infrastructure for life".

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

In the first half of 2025, investors leased and purchased land for the construction of various facilities in six administrative districts of the capital. This was reported by the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Urban Development Policy and Construction Vladimir Efimov.

"Over the first six months of 2025, based on the results of auctions, more than 40 plots with a total area of over 7.5 hectares were leased and purchased from the city. Almost 84.2 thousand square meters of real estate are planned to be built on these sites, including industrial, public and business facilities and private residential buildings. The land is located in six administrative districts, the majority of which is in TiNAO: there are 36 plots there. Two objects were purchased in the southwest and west, one in the east and southeast of the capital," Vladimir Efimov noted.

For the construction of non-residential facilities, the city offers investors two formats: a land lease agreement for construction or an agreement on the implementation of a large-scale investment project (MaIP).

"Based on the results of the first half of the year, entrepreneurs signed three agreements with the city on the implementation of the MAIP. According to one of them, a modern retail and office building will appear on the territory of the administrative and business center "Kommunarka", the second provides for the construction of two industrial facilities with an area of 12.5 thousand square meters in the Nekrasovka and Vnukovo districts. Another 36 plots, mainly in the Troitsky administrative district, were sold to individuals for individual housing construction. Commercial buildings will be erected under three land lease agreements in the southwest of the capital and in the Tatar Administrative District," she noted.

Ekaterina Solovieva, Minister of the Moscow Government, Head of the Moscow Department of City Property.

You can find out information about land plots put up for auction, rules for holding auctions and study the documentation in the section "Moscow Trades" on the capital's investment portal. All contracts are concluded electronically in the buyer's personal account.

According to the head of the Moscow City Department for Competition Policy Kirill Purtov, the capital offers a convenient format for holding auctions and guarantees legal purity and transparency of the transaction, which contributes to the popularity of city auctions among entrepreneurs and city residents. In the first six months of this year, at auctions for the sale of land plots for the construction of both commercial and residential properties, an average of 11 participants bid for one lot.

The development of electronic services for entrepreneurs is being implemented within the framework of the national project "Data Economy".

The collection of standards for assessing the costs of operating urban facilities (SN-2012) has been updated, taking into account prices as of July 1, 2025. This was reported by Maria Bagreeva, Deputy Mayor of Moscow, head of the capital's Department of Economic Policy and Development.

"The SN-2012 collection contains prices for all types of work and services for the maintenance and repair of schools, clinics, kindergartens, parking lots, roads, parks, sports complexes, cultural heritage sites and other city facilities. Using the collection allows us to eliminate unjustified spending of budget funds on the repair and maintenance of city facilities, and provides contractors with equal and transparent conditions for participation in tenders. Muscovites also benefit from this, as they receive high-quality improvement of the capital that meets the highest requirements," noted Maria Bagreeva.

The standards approved in the SN-2012 collection are used by about 2.5 thousand Moscow customers and commercial companies in the operation and maintenance of various municipal facilities. New cost standards are added and recalculated to the current price level on a quarterly basis. In the first two quarters of this year, the Department of Economic Policy and Development of the City of Moscow developed and included 128 standards in the collection, some of which are related to the maintenance of the street and road network and the outdoor lighting system.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

This year, the capital's colleges have expanded their enrollment in culinary specialties. More than 2,500 budget places are available for applicants – this is 20 percent more than in the previous academic year. This was reported by the press service of the capital's Department of Education and Science.

"In Moscow colleges, future chefs and pastry chefs are immersed in the profession from the very first days: they undergo practical training on modern equipment, master current trends and hone their skills under the guidance of experienced mentors. Thanks to close cooperation with the city's leading enterprises, two-thirds of students begin working while still studying. The guys cook for premium establishments and work in food industry companies," the department's press service said.

In Moscow, food industry professionals are trained in eight educational institutions: College of Services No. 10, College of Hospitality Industry and Management No. 23, food college no. 33, Polytechnic College No. 50 named after twice Hero of Socialist Labor N.A. Zlobin, Moscow educational complex "West", First Moscow educational complex, Moscow educational complex named after Viktor Talalikhin AndMoscow College of Management, Hotel Business and Information Technology "Tsaritsyno"In total, more than seven thousand students are studying to become cooks and pastry chefs.

Success Stories

For example, Elizaveta Blokhina is a third-year student at College of the Service Sphere No. 10, majoring in pastry chef. In the fall of 2024 and spring of 2025, the student completed an internship at the White Rabbit restaurant. During her last internship, she realized that she wanted to become part of the team. Thanks to the close cooperation between the college and the restaurant, the girl met the chef, successfully passed the interview, and now works in the cold shop.

Ekaterina Khmelevskaya, a graduate of the Moscow educational complex "West" in the specialty "cooking and confectionery", graduated from college this summer. Already in her third year, she completed an internship at the prestigious Moscow restaurant Selfie, awarded a Michelin star, and soon began working there. After that, the student tried her hand at an unusual project – an immersive gastrotheatre, where she created desserts, combining them with video projections and light effects. However, she soon realized that she liked classical cooking more, and took part in the All-Russian open culinary championship among chefs Chef a la Russe, where she took second place. After participating in the competition, the girl was invited to an internship at a Moscow restaurant named after the philanthropist Savva Mamontov, and a week later she was offered the position of pastry chef.

Capital colleges increase number of employer partners

Darya Stelmakhova graduated from Food College No. 33 as a pastry chef in 2023. In her second year, the student began working at the Aist restaurant under the guidance of Italian chef Mirko Zago. Later, she moved to the Savva restaurant, where she worked in the hot shop. Thanks to her talent and responsible approach to work, the girl quickly won the respect of her colleagues and became a sous-chef two years later.

NSU students and staff presented their developments in the field of prosthetics at the national forum "Hope for Technology"

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The 10th National Forum of the Rehabilitation Industry and Universal Design "Hope for Technology", dedicated to demonstrating comprehensive solutions for creating an accessible environment, modern technologies for people with disabilities, was held in Moscow on July 10-11. The large-scale exhibition display of Russian manufacturers presented more than 450 domestic solutions in 9 areas: prostheses, orthoses and functional units, rehabilitation equipment and exercise machines. The biomechanics and medical engineering group of the Novosibirsk State University, which consists of students from several faculties, presented its developments to the professional community. This scientific group was created on the basis of Mathematical center in Akademgorodok

The exhibition of assistive technologies was attended by the head of the group, candidate of physical and mathematical sciences Vladimir Serdyukov, 4th year students Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of NSU Daria Korostovskaya and Alexander Niukkanen, 3rd year student Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of NSU Tatyana Shashkina, 5th year student Institute of Medicine and Medical Technologies NSU Sofia Eksharova, 2nd year master's student Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of NSU Andrey Karavan, Master's degree graduate Faculty of Geology and Geophysics of NSU Innokenty Serdyuk and postgraduate student of the Institute of Thermal Physics SB RAS Konstantin Lebeda. Young researchers got acquainted with developments in the field of assistive technologies, learned a lot of interesting things, showed the results of their projects, received feedback and acquired valuable contacts for further cooperation.

At their stand, the young researchers presented a motion capture system for studying the kinematics of patients’ walking, as well as an adaptive prosthetic socket for a hand prosthesis using 3D printing technology.

The group also presented its latest developments: a 3D-printed prosthetic foot for activity levels 1–2 and insoles for gait biomechanics diagnostics for amputees, which will complement and improve the motion capture system.

— The most feedback was received by one of our new developments, which was tested for the first time at the forum — a foot prosthesis printed on a 3D printer. Working on this project, we set ourselves the following goal: to make a foot prosthesis that would have a low cost, be easy to manufacture, have the ability to be personalized and manufactured in a short time using simple equipment, which would increase its availability, but at the same time maintain the general biomechanics of walking. An important point is that our prosthesis belongs to activity levels 1-2 and is intended only for walking, but is not suitable for running or sports. To develop the geometry, a digital stand was used that imitates human loads when walking. This way, we were able to create a prosthesis geometry that meets the goal, — said Andrey Karavan.

For the precise design of the prosthesis, 3D modeling and load analysis technologies in Ansys were used. Manufacturing using FDM printing technology took about 12 hours. The weight of the finished product was about 700 grams. This project received financial support from the Ministry of Science and Innovation Policy of the Novosibirsk Region.

The first time a patient tested a printed prosthesis was at the forum. The guys offered to test and evaluate it to the head of the prosthetic center "Instep" (St. Petersburg), who is an amputee himself.

— He liked that the sole is non-slip – even on wet floor tiles, which allows the user to take a shower without the risk of falling. However, he pointed out the shortcomings and shortcomings regarding the geometry of the product and made constructive suggestions for its improvement. His opinion is very important to us, and taking this feedback into account, we will adjust the prosthesis model and organize re-testing on other amputees. It will not be difficult to make adjustments due to the simplicity of the technology, — explained Daria Korostovskaya.

Another new development of the NSU biomechanics and medical engineering group attracted great interest from the forum participants — a pressure insole that will accurately determine the step phases and gait asymmetry. This “smart” insole was previously tested together with a motion capture system for analyzing gait kinematics. The invention will allow specialists in prosthetic centers to analyze the distribution of the load between healthy and amputated limbs, evaluate the distribution of pressure on the foot or prosthesis, and the dynamics of rehabilitation outside the clinic. This project received support from the FSI Foundation as part of the Student Startup competition.

— The video we recorded while testing this insole shows the distribution of the load on the foot when walking. It is important that it allows us to divide the gait cycles into support and transfer phases. We have the opportunity to analyze their ratio and draw conclusions about the gait asymmetry indicator of amputees, which is important for monitoring rehabilitation and correct placement of the prosthesis. When diagnosing the biomechanics of amputees' gait, such insoles are placed in shoes under both the patient's healthy foot and the prosthesis. To transmit and read data from the insole, we developed software for processing and visualizing the data, — said Tatyana Shashkina.

Young researchers plan to combine the motion capture system with a "smart" insole. During early research, the guys came to the conclusion that combining these technical solutions will allow for a more complete gait analysis. The motion capture system records the kinematics of the gait, and the insole records the pressure of the foot and prosthesis on the surface. By combining these data, it is possible to track the biomechanical indicators and symmetry of the patient's gait, which is of great importance for assessing the progress of rehabilitation and adjusting the prosthesis settings.

This development has attracted great interest from representatives of prosthetic centers, some of whom have expressed interest in testing it in their institutions and working together. Among them are the Alorto prosthetic and orthopedic center (Barnaul) and the Ortho-Innovation prosthetic center (Moscow).

— We will be glad to cooperate with these and other prosthetic centers, including because during joint testing we will be able to replenish the database of gait kinematics of patients with lower limb amputations, which we are currently forming in the course of joint work with the Novosibirsk branch of the Moscow Prosthetic and Orthopedic Enterprise. In addition, at the forum we received a request to develop an adaptive prosthetic socket for a leg using 3D printing technology, similar to our existing development of a prosthetic socket for an arm. This is exactly what we intend to do in the near future, — Vladimir Serdyukov summed up.

Dmitry Grigorenko: The goal of digitalization of public administration is the comfort of citizens

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

As part of a working visit to the Novosibirsk Region, Deputy Prime Minister – Chief of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko familiarized himself with digital solutions for public administration that have already been implemented in the region.

Novosibirsk Oblast is one of the top ten regions in the digital transformation rating and is actively implementing technologies in various areas. The region is connected to the digital system "governor's dashboard". This is one of the technological solutions of the Russian Government, designed for public administration based on data. The dashboard reflects the key areas of the region's work and performance indicators, the status of the execution of instructions, federal and regional budgets, construction plans and other tasks. Such systems have already been implemented at the federal level. They have proven their effectiveness and are now being extended to the regions (43 regions are currently connected to the "governor's dashboard").

"The ultimate goal of digitalization of public administration is always the comfort of citizens. Thanks to digital platforms and services, citizens receive government services faster and can promptly, without unnecessary paperwork, leave feedback. In addition, "digital" helps officials work more efficiently. For example, to respond faster to citizens' requests, analyze what worries people most, and make informed decisions based on objective data," said Dmitry Grigorenko.

The region is also developing digital services for citizens and implementing a customer-centric approach. The region has a system called the Novosibirsk Region Resident Card, which is a digital citizen identifier for receiving various goods or services, such as discounted travel on public transport or baby food. The system proactively notifies citizens about available benefits and services. A linked Mir bank card or a QR code in a personal account can serve as confirmation of benefits in various institutions or transport. The Resident Card can also be presented to receive discounted medicines, purchase discounted tickets to cultural institutions, and the card can serve as a library card or a pass to educational institutions. Currently, the system has 18 different services, and almost 40 thousand residents of the region are registered.

The region has also implemented a digital project that has no analogues in other regions – signing contracts with kindergartens in electronic form through the Gosklyuch application. The service was implemented within the framework of the regional life situation "Preschooler". Within its framework, the process of registering a child in a kindergarten was digitized: from filing an application (now 91% of applications for joining the queue are submitted through the state services portal) to signing an agreement with the kindergarten remotely. Since the launch, more than 4 thousand contracts have already been successfully signed electronically.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

During his working visit, Deputy Prime Minister – Chief of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko got acquainted with the results of the implementation of artificial intelligence in various sectors of the economy, social life and public administration in the Novosibirsk Region. As the Deputy Prime Minister noted, local developments using artificial intelligence have a high potential for replication across the country.

Dmitry Grigorenko visited the Research Center for Artificial Intelligence of the Novosibirsk National Research State University, as well as the technopark of the Novosibirsk Akademgorodok, where IT companies are working on the creation and implementation of promising AI solutions. The Deputy Prime Minister – Head of the Government Staff noted that Novosibirsk is one of the centers for the development of information technology and artificial intelligence.

"Our goal is to develop high-quality AI solutions and implement them on a large scale. This is only possible if AI development brings tangible results and real benefits. Novosibirsk has created decent conditions for the development of artificial intelligence. It has a strong scientific base and a progressive startup community. Thanks to this, the development of artificial intelligence here is parallel to the implementation, and not in isolation from it. It is important that the region itself is interested in using its AI developments and implements them in local educational institutions, enterprises and even in the work of government agencies," said Dmitry Grigorenko.

One of the most important areas of implementation of artificial intelligence is public administration. In the Novosibirsk region, AI assistants are being implemented, which allow optimizing the work of civil servants. Thus, an AI expert in customer centricity helps process citizens' requests and prepare the most understandable and clear answers, an AI assistant in the electronic document management system – quickly find the necessary information, and an AI stenographer – generate meeting minutes. Services have already begun to be implemented in the work of regional and municipal authorities.

In addition, the region has implemented the Safe City video analytics system, which helps monitor public order and search for offenders. More than 2.6 thousand criminals were detained with the help of the system. Novosibirsk specialists also created and implemented an AI service for searching for missing children using city video cameras. In less than two months of the service's operation, six children were found with its help.

Since 2025, the Novosibirsk Region has been actively introducing AI technologies into healthcare: AI is used to interpret X-ray and CT scan data. Since the beginning of the year, the system has processed over 361 thousand images. AI is used as an assistant for analyzing medical data, but the final diagnosis remains with the specialist. In addition, Novosibirsk doctors use voice input technology based on a neural network. It reduces the likelihood of errors in medical documentation. Today, the technology has been implemented in 71 medical institutions in the region.

"The use of artificial intelligence is justified for specific tasks. We try to monitor all developments, but when we approach the stage of large-scale implementation, we look at the expected result – improved quality of services, fundamentally new services for our citizens or a reduction in our labor costs. If we see successful developments, we try to quickly repeat them, but at the same time we can develop our own solutions. As examples, I can cite the analysis of X-ray and computed tomography data, the Safe City video analytics system. In the field of voice analytics and speech generation, this is the well-known robot Nikolai, a voice keyboard for doctors, intelligent assistants for civil servants. All these solutions both improve the quality of services for citizens and seriously reduce labor costs for our colleagues," said Andrey Travnikov, Governor of the Novosibirsk Region.
