The Vladimir Zvorykin Prize was presented at the Moscow Industrial Media Forum. NTV won the "Best System Project in Television and Radio Broadcasting" category for creating a unified, high-tech, federal-level multimedia system based on Russian products and modern IP technologies.

The construction agreement was signed between the Moscow government and NTV television company at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum in 2021. The complex was commissioned in August 2025.

"August 23, 2025—the very day we went on air from the new television center—was a landmark date not only for NTV but for the entire industry, as the last such buildings in the country were built in the 1970s. It became the first television technical center in 46 years to be built in Russia and to operate primarily with domestic equipment."

Alexey Zemsky, General Director of NTV

The television complex covers over 76,000 square meters. It includes seven television studios, announcer's rooms, editing rooms, makeup rooms, and an on-air complex capable of providing live broadcasts across nine time zones.
