Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the All-Russian Society of Inventors and Innovators (VOIR), awarded the winner of the 3rd All-Russian "Inventor of the Year" competition. The ceremony took place in Moscow at the Atom Museum at VDNKh.
Dmitry Chernyshenko read out Russian President Vladimir Putin's address to the participants and guests of the awards ceremony. "Today we honor talented, driven, and dedicated individuals—true innovators whose breakthrough discoveries and developments make a significant contribution to the development of Russian scientific and technological thought, strengthening the country's economic and industrial potential, and Russia's technological sovereignty," the head of state's address read.
The Deputy Prime Minister emphasized that the ceremony is taking place in a highly symbolic location, the Atom Museum, where "one can see the connection between generations of inventors, our great discoveries, new breakthrough ideas, and aspirations for the future."
"Today, we will honor those who truly make a significant contribution to achieving our technological sovereignty. It's gratifying that all the competition laureates have intersected in one way or another and are working to implement the national technological leadership projects we are implementing at the behest of Russian President Vladimir Putin. All nine of these national projects find their inspiration here, among you, young scientists. I wish you good, reliable partners on your scientific journey," he noted.
The Deputy Prime Minister thanked the competition's organizers and partners—the Ministry of Education and Science and the All-Russian Society of Inventors and Innovators, which will celebrate its 100th anniversary in 2032. "The society is currently developing rapidly, regaining its position, and already unites over 100,000 participating scientists. I am confident that the organization has an even greater future. Thank you all very much," he added.
Dmitry Chernyshenko presented the highest award—the Grand Prix—as well as a diploma and cup to Ivan Bukharov, chief engineer of the Ural Engineering Center project in Chelyabinsk, for developing a unique method for improving the precision and quality of aircraft skin production.
The introduction of this technology made it possible to cover the shell parts of aircraft (Tu-214) with more complex geometry, significantly increase the molding accuracy, and reduce thickness variations.
The laureate received a certificate for 1 million rubles from Vladimir Kononov, Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Science and Higher Education and Chairman of the Central Council of VOIR.
"Today, the Government and the State Duma are creating all the conditions for talented inventors to transform their ideas into real projects and thereby contribute to achieving technological leadership—a national goal set by the Russian President. As a reminder, our President approved the inventors' initiative to support VOIR and change the legal structure of the company to a public-public one. I am confident that this will provide new impetus for unlocking the potential of Russian inventors and innovators and promoting invention among citizens of all ages, especially children and young people," said Vladimir Kononov.
The competition's organizing committee approved a list of 21 winners in four categories: Grand Prix, Innovator of the Year, Mentor of the Year, and Inventor of the Year. The winners were awarded diplomas, trophies, certificates worth 200,000 rubles, and commemorative prizes.
This year, more than 650 inventors and innovators from 71 regions of Russia applied to participate in the competition. The youngest participant was 14 years old, the oldest was 90. More than 40% of the contenders were under 35.

Digital transformation has become one of the key development areas in modern Russia, encompassing virtually all industries and social spheres. This was announced by Deputy Prime Minister and Chief of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko at the National Center "Russia." He spoke as part of the "100 Projects for the Future of Russia: Digital" program.
"We live in the era of the so-called fourth industrial revolution—a data and digital revolution that is changing literally everything: from economic processes to services, and also influencing people's attitudes toward work, everyday life, and how they interact with the world around them," said Dmitry Grigorenko.
He noted that the implementation of artificial intelligence-based programs is becoming a key trend, as AI eliminates routine tasks, operates without interruption, and effectively solves routine problems. In the public sector, the use of AI is also a key focus – now, a high-quality service is considered one that is not simply digitized but personalized. Artificial intelligence is also used in management: by processing large amounts of data, it predicts events with almost 100% accuracy. As an example, Dmitry Grigorenko explained that the Government is using AI in the national project management system. This helps predict task failures in advance, changing the management approach: instead of analyzing errors after the fact, artificial intelligence warns of risks with 96% accuracy, allowing for timely adjustments.
"Russia is one of the few countries with digital sovereignty. We have our own marketplaces, search engines, and artificial intelligence language models—two of them, in fact. We also have our own messenger, data centers, and much more. Every day, 10 million people order food delivery or taxis, and this has long been a part of our daily lives. Even 15 years ago, it was hard to imagine such a level of digital convenience," said Dmitry Grigorenko.
During the discussion, Dmitry Grigorenko discussed several key areas of digital transformation in Russia in detail. The Deputy Prime Minister highlighted Russia's successes in developing biometrics, noting that Russia is one of the world leaders in implementing this technology. He emphasized that Russia has created a state-owned biometric data storage system with multi-layered security, where information is divided into encrypted fragments.
In the area of telecommunications infrastructure, Dmitry Grigorenko reported on work being done to create a Russian low-orbit satellite system to provide broadband internet coverage throughout the country. In the context of robotics, he cited examples from logistics and warehousing, where robots demonstrate multiple improvements in efficiency compared to human labor. This includes the integration of artificial intelligence into robotics, which will significantly expand the functionality of automated systems.
A separate section of the presentation was devoted to unmanned technologies. According to Dmitry Grigorenko, they are fundamentally changing approaches to managing space and processes in industries such as agriculture, construction, and logistics. He emphasized the pressing need for personnel. However, the Deputy Prime Minister asserted that digitalization is not destroying professions, but rather transforming them, creating new opportunities for IT specialists.
Dmitry Grigorenko urged students to take a conscious approach to choosing a career in the IT field, as digital skills are becoming essential in virtually every modern profession.
"No matter how much we talk about digitalization—whether we praise it or criticize it—people are still at the center of everything. It's important to understand: digitalization is just a tool. And how it's used depends entirely on the individual. It's like any object—a teapot or a microscope—which can be used for hammering nails or for its intended purpose. It's the same with digital technologies, only their capabilities are far broader and their impact on quality of life is significantly greater than most other tools," Dmitry Grigorenko concluded.
The National Center "Russia" continues its series of thematic programs, "Platform of the Future: 100 Russian Projects." These programs focus on tangible results in achieving national development goals in accordance with Decree No. 309 of the President of the Russian Federation. During the events, speakers and government officials discuss the steps being taken to achieve national development goals and the practical benefits they bring to ordinary people.

A Russian cosmonaut applied for a government service online for the first time while aboard the International Space Station. This was announced by Deputy Prime Minister and Chief of the Government Staff Dmitry Grigorenko during the session "Platform of the Future: 100 Russian Projects. Digital."
The Deputy Prime Minister emphasized that cosmonaut Alexei Zubritsky used biometrics to log into the government services portal and use the self-prohibition service for SIM cards listed in "life situations." The entire process took just 30 seconds. The broadcast, as part of a live video link with the ISS, took place on the sidelines of the "Digital Solutions" IT forum.
"Digitalization makes accessing services as simple as possible, making them quick and convenient. And thanks to modern technologies, including biometrics, government services can now be accessed anywhere—at home, in the office, and even in low-Earth orbit," said Dmitry Grigorenko.
"I plan to use the 'Life Situations' service and set a self-ban on SIM cards. This means that while I'm in space, I won't be able to sign up for a communications contract. I'll use biometrics to access Gosuslugi, as text messages don't reach orbit," cosmonaut Alexei Zubritsky commented on receiving the service.
In total, 2.8 million people have already taken advantage of the "Protection from Fraudsters" life situation, and more than 600,000 have taken advantage of the self-prohibition on signing a communication contract.
"Many experts recognize the quality of Russian electronic services as exemplary. And it's important that now, even when traveling beyond Earth, Russian citizens can safely use their familiar services," noted Dmitry Bakanov, CEO of the Roscosmos State Corporation.
Today, using biometrics, citizens can not only secure their Gosuslugi accounts but also check into hotels without a passport, pay for groceries or metro rides, access services at multifunctional centers (MFCs), register a business online, and much more. In all user scenarios, biometrics serves as an additional—and simplest and most convenient—way to access services.
The session took place on November 15 at the National Center "Russia" as part of the thematic program "Platform of the Future: 100 Russian Projects." During the event, Dmitry Grigorenko spoke to students from Russian universities about key digitalization trends, including the implementation of artificial intelligence, biometrics, digitalization of public administration, and the development of communications across the country. Following the lecture, he also answered questions from young professionals.

The government continues to create conditions for the development of energy infrastructure and the electric power industry as a whole. An order has been signed to include 25 more facilities in Russia's energy territorial planning scheme.
The updated document, in particular, includes provisions for the construction and reconstruction of electrical substations in the Amur, Murmansk, and Irkutsk regions to improve the reliability of power supply to households and businesses.
For this purpose, additional power transmission lines are planned to be installed in 11 regions: the Komi Republic, Amur, Irkutsk, Leningrad, Murmansk, Moscow, Nizhny Novgorod, Sverdlovsk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions, and the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug.
Wind power plants are planned for construction in Krasnoyarsk Krai and Amur Oblast, which will increase the regions' renewable energy potential.
The main objective of the territorial planning scheme for energy is to create conditions for the expansion of energy infrastructure, which also impacts the country's socioeconomic development. This document forms the basis for the development of comprehensive regional infrastructure plans, enabling regions to more effectively implement social and economic initiatives. The territorial planning scheme is also necessary for reserving available sites for federal energy facilities planned for reconstruction or construction in the long term.
The document will be published.

Yuri Trutnev chaired a meeting of the Government Commission on Ensuring Russia's Presence on the Svalbard Archipelago
Deputy Prime Minister and Presidential Plenipotentiary Envoy to the Far Eastern Federal District Yuri Trutnev chaired a meeting of the Government Commission on Ensuring Russia's Presence on the Spitsbergen Archipelago. The meeting's agenda included issues related to the economic activities of the Arktikugol company, master plans for the development of settlements where Russia operates, and plans to establish an international scientific and educational center.
"The main Russian company operating on Svalbard is the Federal State Unitary Enterprise (FSUE) GT Arktikugol. The company mines coal, services ships, develops tourism, and supports scientific research. For the past several years, the company has been operating under sanctions from Norway. As a reminder, Svalbard's international legal status is defined by the Svalbard Treaty of February 9, 1920, and grants over 40 participating states the right to operate on the archipelago. However, only Norway and Russia have exercised this right. Today, in the context of rising international tensions, it is of fundamental importance to us that none of the rights Russia acquired prior to our work are lost," Yuri Trutnev opened the meeting.
At the commission's last meeting in September 2024, an order was given to prepare a master plan for the development of settlements within the Russian presence on Spitsbergen. Vostokgosplan, together with the Arcticugol State Enterprise, developed and presented the corresponding master plans.
"Since 2022, the Arktikugol trust has been under the control of the Ministry for the Development of the Russian Far East. During this time, programs aimed at modernizing the trust's infrastructure and diversifying its activities have been and continue to be implemented. 65% of its revenue already comes from non-extractive industries, particularly tourism and other services. We will continue our systematic work to ensure Russia's presence on the Svalbard archipelago," noted Alexey Chekunkov, Minister for the Development of the Russian Far East and Arctic.

Coal mining and tourism are highlighted as promising development areas. Coal mining is expected to maintain sufficient volumes to support the operations of the Arcticugol gas pipeline. Last year, work began on upgrading the mine's equipment in this area.
Tourism development in the Russian presence on the Svalbard archipelago aims to reach 50,000 tourists per year by 2040. To this end, plans include reconstructing buildings for tourism infrastructure, developing tourist routes, and establishing direct connections. In this regard, restoration of buildings in the villages of Barentsburg and Pyramiden has begun. The possibility of establishing a regular sea freight and passenger service between the port of Murmansk and the Russian presence on the Svalbard archipelago was discussed. It was noted that from June to October of this year, the marine research vessel Professor Molchanov completed five consecutive direct international visa-free voyages between Murmansk and the villages of Barentsburg and Pyramiden.
The meeting participants presented a concept for the establishment of an International Scientific and Educational Center on the Spitsbergen Archipelago. It was developed in accordance with Yuri Trutnev's instructions following the meeting of the Government Commission for Ensuring the Russian Presence on the Spitsbergen Archipelago in February 2024.
"The Murmansk Region is Russia's Arctic outpost, and we fully support the initiative to establish an international scientific and educational center on Spitsbergen. The region has a solid scientific base—the Kola Science Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the Murmansk Marine Biological Institute, and other leading institutions whose experience could be useful in implementing the project. Furthermore, a world-class campus is being created at Murmansk Arctic University, focused on training personnel for work in the Arctic and along the Northern Sea Route. The creation of the center opens new prospects for collaboration and joint efforts in this area. We will provide all necessary support to ensure the center's success and ensure cooperation with our Murmansk Arctic University," said Murmansk Region Governor Andrey Chibis.
"Despite restrictions imposed by a number of countries and the freezing of joint projects, including those implemented within the Arctic Council, Russia remains open to international cooperation. This also applies to science. Climate stability throughout the world largely depends on the Arctic. We must think about the future, even if some of our foreign colleagues forget. Therefore, we must continue to study the permafrost, atmosphere, and hydrosphere of the Arctic zone. To address this issue, a new international scientific and educational center will be established on the archipelago. It will serve as a platform for joint Arctic scientific and educational projects with foreign, primarily friendly, countries," said Yuri Trutnev.

November 12, 2025. The Government is paying special attention to regional development, ensuring that investment projects are implemented in our cities and towns, active work is underway to achieve national goals, and the territories are improved. Implementing such large-scale, often complex tasks requires significant resources. One of the key tasks the Government has been actively addressing in recent years has been the development of a supply-side economy. Another topic of high social significance concerns support for the program of discounted flights between regions, including on routes from the Far East. This topic is also under the constant supervision of the President. The next issue concerns municipalities.
At meetings with the leaders of such communities, the President always emphasizes the importance of their work, emphasizing that they are worthy, proactive people who contribute their knowledge, energy, and experience to the development of both small villages and large cities, and to moving toward new results.
For nine years, the All-Russian "Best Municipal Practice" competition has recognized the achievements of the most active teams in areas crucial to ensuring a comfortable life for citizens: public space improvement, urban development, and housing and utilities modernization, including the use of modern digital technologies.

Government meeting
This year, the event was expanded with two more categories. One is aimed at improving municipal management efficiency, while the other is aimed at increasing visibility and creating a so-called territorial brand.
The results of the latest competition were recently announced. Forty-eight municipalities representing almost a third of Russia's regions emerged as winners. I'd like to point out that most of them are small settlements. Currently, there are six urban and 24 rural ones. The highest results were achieved by teams from the Kamensky village council in the Republic of Bashkortostan, the villages of Muslyumovskoye in Tatarstan, and Tengushevskoye in Mordovia. And two from Buryatia – Temnik and Dunda-Kiretskoye.
The Mezhdurechensky Municipal District of the Kemerovo Region and the Berezovskoye Rural Settlement of the Khabarovsk Territory took prizes in two categories.
Such events are very important and serve as an example of how to work for people. This motivates colleagues from neighboring communities to refine their approaches. It helps them find more effective solutions to problems and use their accumulated experience to create comfortable living conditions in our country.

The program to relocate Russians from dilapidated housing continues under the new national project "Infrastructure for Life." Applications for the new phase have been approved from Stavropol Krai, Leningrad Oblast, the Udmurt Republic, and the Komi Republic, according to Marat Khusnullin, Deputy Prime Minister and Chairman of the Supervisory Board of the Territorial Development Fund.
"Resettlement of residents from dilapidated housing is one of the priority tasks outlined by the President of Russia. As part of the national project 'Infrastructure for Life,' regions are receiving financial support for the implementation of the program's new phase. Four more regions will receive 693.5 million rubles from the Territorial Development Fund, which, under the supervision of the Ministry of Construction, operates the program. These funds will improve the housing conditions of approximately 1,500 people relocated from uninhabitable buildings with a total floor area of approximately 25,200 square meters. This work, aimed at improving the quality of life of residents, will be consistently continued," said Marat Khusnullin.
According to him, the Udmurt Republic was approved for 89.53 million rubles to resettle 567 people from dilapidated buildings with an area of 10,410 square meters, the Leningrad Region for 290.12 million rubles to resettle 453 people from dilapidated buildings with an area of 6,240 square meters, the Komi Republic for 240.84 million rubles to resettle 357 people from dilapidated buildings with an area of 6,960 square meters, and the Stavropol Territory for 72.97 million rubles to resettle 105 people from dilapidated buildings with an area of 1,540 square meters.
"To date, applications from 84 regions have been approved, totaling approximately 37.7 billion rubles. This will allow for the resettlement of approximately 1 million square meters of dilapidated housing, home to approximately 56,500 people. The Territorial Development Fund will continue to provide the regions with the necessary assistance to ensure the timely completion of all program stages and the achievement of the goals of the 'Infrastructure for Life' national project," noted Vasily Kupyzin, CEO of the Territorial Development Fund.
From 2025 to 2030, the federal project "Housing" will be implemented as part of the national project "Infrastructure for Life." It plans to relocate 345,000 people from dilapidated housing covering an area of 6.2 million square meters.

The government is working to improve mechanisms for protecting citizens' rights in the real estate sector. The ban on transactions without the owner's personal participation is one of the most reliable ways to protect against fraudulent attempts and prevent illegal real estate transactions, said Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin.
"Real estate services are traditionally among the most sought-after and socially significant services among the population. Their primary objective is to guarantee the rights and legitimate interests of property owners, as well as protect them from unlawful actions by third parties. This rapid growth indicates that more and more citizens are taking steps to protect their property. Since the beginning of 2025, more than 1 million applications have been filed to prohibit the registration of transactions without personal participation, which is almost double the number from the same period last year," said Marat Khusnullin.
According to him, the Central Federal District leads in terms of the number of applications submitted in 2025, with over 428,000. Of these, almost 329,000 were received in Moscow. The Volga Federal District processed over 209,000 such applications, over 59,000 of which were in the Republic of Bashkortostan. The Northwestern Federal District rounded out the top three, with over 164,000 applications received, almost 138,000 of which were registered in St. Petersburg.
"The number of applications submitted electronically is also growing. Since the beginning of the year, there have been more than 265,000 (25.2%), and in the same period last year, there were over 127,000, representing 21.4% of the total. To enter a record in the Unified State Register of Real Estate (USRN) indicating the impossibility of registering a transfer, termination, restriction of a right, or encumbrance on a property without the owner's personal participation, a corresponding application must be submitted. This can be done online through the official Rosreestr website, through your personal account on Gosuslugi, or in person at a Multifunctional Center (MFC). After such a record is entered in the USRN, all applications submitted regarding a property without the personal participation of the titleholder will be returned without review," noted Oleg Skufinsky, Head of Rosreestr.
An application may only be submitted by the person listed as the owner in the property register. Additionally, only their legal representative or a representative with a power of attorney may submit an application. The ban on transactions without the owner's personal participation ceases to apply upon the transfer of title to the property, upon receipt of an application from the owner to withdraw a previously submitted application, or upon a court decision. This service is available throughout Russia, including the reunified regions.
