Denis Manturov took part in the congress of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs.

First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov participated in the plenary session of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs (RSPP) Congress at the National Center "Russia." In his speech, he outlined priority areas for joint work between the government and business.

"The first step for sustainable business operations is maximizing demand support for domestic products. The extension of the national regime to procurement under Federal Law No. 223 has been a significant boost here. Last year, 1.85 trillion rubles worth of Russian industrial goods were sold through this mechanism, accounting for approximately 75% of the total procurement volume. Therefore, the mechanism's potential has not yet been exhausted, and it is important for us to work together to eliminate all avenues for circumventing the national regime," Denis Manturov noted.

Subsidies are being provided to support Russian manufacturers, offsetting discounts provided to buyers of industrial robots, machine tools, and other products. Furthermore, to protect the market, the government, in its dialogue with the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs (RSPP), is focusing on tariff measures, standards, and technical regulations, which is particularly relevant for products developed under national technological leadership projects.

"The second key factor for us today is maintaining investment activity. Despite the challenging economic environment, last year, fixed capital investment in manufacturing increased by 11%. I would like to thank businesses for using their own reserves for this purpose. Combined with the government's systemic support measures, this allowed us to continue prioritizing projects and launch hundreds of new initiatives," said the First Deputy Prime Minister.

In particular, based on the results of last year, the Industrial Development Fund alone received a record number of requests from enterprises for the implementation of new projects – 1,150 applications.

Speaking about human resources, the First Deputy Prime Minister emphasized the RSPP's contribution to its development as a leading employer association. Medium and large businesses are the government's main partner in implementing the "Professionalism" and "Advanced Engineering Schools" programs.

"Furthermore, despite the current difficulties, businesses continue to implement socially oriented corporate programs. I would like to thank you for such responsible business practices and emphasize our top priority: support for families, motherhood, and childhood, from one-time payments to parents to the establishment of crèches and kindergartens. I believe that overcoming demographic challenges should become a crucial element of corporate culture," Denis Manturov concluded.

The Bolshoi Theater began as a private enterprise. Its founding date is considered to be March 28, 1776, when Catherine II granted Prince Pyotr Urusov the right to "be the director of all theatrical performances in Moscow."

Today, the Bolshoi Theatre is a world-renowned center of opera and ballet. Russian national opera was born on its stage, and works by great composers such as Mikhail Glinka, Pyotr Tchaikovsky, Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, and Sergei Rachmaninoff were performed. Here, Marius Petipa staged the brilliant Don Quixote, while Swan Lake, The Sleeping Beauty, and The Nutcracker became hallmarks of Russian ballet.

To mark the theatre's anniversary, the Bank of Russia will issue commemorative coins "250th Anniversary of the State Academic Bolshoi Theatre of Russia" from the "Historical Events" series on March 27, 2026.

Alexander Novak took part in the XXXV Congress of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs.

Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak attended the 35th Congress of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs, where the results of the past period were summarized and priorities for the future were outlined.

The Deputy Prime Minister noted that in recent years, the RSPP has become a systemic partner for the government in developing important economic decisions. "The work of the union's committees and commissions, the regular dialogue at Russian Business Week, and the joint review of draft laws and regulations—all of these are truly important mechanisms that are effective and yield results," Alexander Novak emphasized.

He noted that last year, the country's economy continued to function amid increased external pressure, changes in transport and logistics chains, and volatility in global markets. However, despite all the challenges, macroeconomic stability was maintained and the structural restructuring of the Russian economy continued.

Economic growth over the three-year period amounted to 10.3%, exceeding the global average. The main contributors were sectors such as manufacturing, agriculture, construction, pharmaceuticals, and IT (computer manufacturing). Inflation slowed to 5.6% last year, real income growth is expected to reach 7.7% in 2025, and consumer activity increased by 2.9%.

Alexander Novak outlined the challenges that must be addressed to achieve one of the key goals set by the Russian President – achieving a trajectory of sustainable economic growth. These include the cost of borrowing, low unemployment, and the administrative burden. Addressing these issues requires a balanced macroeconomic framework and the ongoing monitoring and management of such important parameters as money supply growth, lending dynamics, and the state of the budget system. Significant attention is also being paid to increasing labor productivity across all sectors of the economy.

A key tool for improving the country's business climate is the national model of target business conditions, developed at the request of the President of Russia and approved by the Government in November 2025. Within this framework, extensive joint work was undertaken to create roadmaps in 11 areas, which include 250 measures aimed at achieving 42 indicators.

"We've been through a difficult period. The challenges facing our country today require maximum focus, professionalism, and, most importantly, the ability to work together. The government is open to dialogue and values the expert opinion of the business community," noted Alexander Novak.

Last year, the Donbas National Academy of Civil Engineering and Architecture (DonNACEA) joined the National Research Moscow State University of Civil Engineering as a branch of the university, marking an important step in developing the human resources potential of Donbas and Novorossiya, as well as in training qualified specialists for the construction and housing and utilities sectors. Today, specialists have begun a large-scale restoration of the university's entire infrastructure, announced Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.

"DonNACEA's accession to the country's leading construction university was a strategic decision. The next important step will be creating adequate conditions for study and work there. Under the supervision of the "Single Client," specialists will carry out major renovations and modernization of eight buildings with a total area of approximately 33,000 square meters. Currently, construction workers are already conducting preparatory and demolition work in two academic buildings, three student dormitories, the Palace of Culture, and the sports complex," said Marat Khusnullin.

The Deputy Prime Minister added that the renovation of the educational infrastructure of the Donbas National Academy of Civil Engineering and Architecture is planned to be completed by the end of 2027.

"During the major renovation of the university buildings, construction workers will strengthen the supporting structures, replace roofs and windows, repair the facades and interior spaces, and upgrade utility systems and communications. Additionally, specialists will comprehensively improve the surrounding area, creating comfortable pedestrian areas and student recreation areas," said Karen Oganesyan, CEO of the Unified Customer Production and Consulting Company.

The volume of public stock offerings in 2025 increased from 102.1 billion to 125.2 billion rubles. The number of issuers decreased from 19 to 9, of which only 4 companies entered the equity capital market for the first time. The main players were issuers from the financial sector.

The lion's share of initial public offerings (IPOs) and secondary public offerings (SPOs) was accounted for by two large companies with market capitalizations estimated between 300 billion and 400 billion rubles. For the first time in over 15 years, a major IPO of a company with state participation took place. Previously, small-cap (up to 30 billion rubles) and mid-cap (from 30 billion to 100 billion rubles) companies from the IT, digital technology, and pharmaceutical industries predominated.

Institutional investors increased their equity investments slightly, rising their share of total purchases from 48% to 52%. Management companies demonstrated the greatest activity. The number of retail investors, on the other hand, decreased by 4.5 times compared to the previous year. However, their average transaction size increased 3.3 times, exceeding 300,000 rubles. Qualified investors accounted for the majority of demand, accounting for 97% of all retail purchases.

As in 2024, citizens more often pursued a short-term investment strategy. They sold shares more frequently within the first 30 days after an initial public offering.
