Robotization will be a key development area for the capital's public procurement system in the coming years. This will improve the efficiency of procurement processes and more effectively distribute the workload among contracting service specialists, according to the head of the Moscow Department of Competition Policy. Kirill Purtov at the plenary session of the IV All-Russian Conference on Procurement in Sochi.

"Every seventh ruble in the Russian procurement system goes to Moscow customers, and the total volume of government procurement in the capital in 2025 has already exceeded 1.3 trillion rubles. The Moscow contracting system is a large and complex mechanism, and our goal is to speed up and simplify its operation. Robotization will be one of the tools for this in the near future. This involves the use of artificial intelligence to forecast the timing and volume of customer needs, taking into account data from existing contracts and warehouse inventory. The implementation of such technologies will improve planning accuracy, reduce costs, and optimize the workload on staff," noted Kirill Purtov.

In his speech, the Head of the Department also emphasized the development of the supplier portal—a platform for small-volume procurement. The portal helps customers quickly obtain high-quality goods, work, and services at competitive prices, while enabling suppliers from across Russia to develop their businesses and enter the interregional market. Krasnoyarsk Krai, the 43rd region, recently joined the platform.

The portal is actively developing additional services based on artificial intelligence. For example, neural network algorithms assist suppliers in filling out product cards, and a smart chatbot provides answers to the most common procurement questions.

The 4th All-Russian Procurement Conference is taking place in Sochi on October 2–3. The event is attended by heads of Russian regions, representatives of the Federal Antimonopoly Service, federal and regional executive authorities, state-owned companies, and expert communities. They will share their opinions and experiences on current procurement regulation issues.

The number of state and municipal customers on the supplier portal has grown to 60,000.Over two thousand joint purchases were made by Moscow customers on the supplier portal in six months.

The capital is a leader inNational Procurement Transparency RatingBy standardizing procedures, implementing digital technologies, and engaging small businesses, Moscow's government procurement system ensures savings at every stage of the process.

A bust of German Titov, cosmonaut, Hero of the Soviet Union, Doctor of Military Sciences, and the first person to complete a long-duration space flight, was installed on Cosmonauts' Alley near the Cosmonautics Museum (111 Mira Avenue).

The monument was created by a team of sculptors including Alexander Alubaev and architects Sergei Kolobov and Ildar Salimov. The All-Russian public organization "Russian Cosmonautics Federation" initiated the installation.

The opening ceremony was attended by representatives of federal and Moscow authorities, public and scientific institutions, relatives and friends of German Titov, as well as Muscovites and guests of the capital.

The "Lost Garden" exhibition opens in Pavilion No. 29, "Floriculture and Landscaping," at the Biocluster at VDNKh. It is a joint project between the Timiryazev State Biological Museum and the HSE School of Design and Art and Design. The exhibition features works by students and graduates of the HSE School of Design and Art and Design.

The pavilion will be transformed into an immersive space, where the garden will symbolize the human soul and inner world. The exhibition is structured as a sequential journey through several thematic zones. The exhibition features ceramic sculptures: animal figures, abstract images of people and nature, and symbolic compositions. All of these are harmoniously combined with the plants. However, some exhibits can only be discovered upon closer inspection.

"The exhibition draws on the museum's resources and collections, which focus not on classical art but on scientific subjects. This is what makes the project unique: together with the students, we're exploring biological materials and motifs, trying to demonstrate how special and deeply personal the union of humanity, nature, and art can be," said Alexandra Zakharova, the project's curator.

A key exhibit at the exhibition will be the digital fantasy project "Flower Horoscope," created by the art group Agey Tomesh. The artists have created a collection of 366 flower images—one for each day of the year. Each image is accompanied by a description of the flower, its characteristics, and the personality of the person born on that day.

The exhibition's concept will be summarized by a video projection depicting a pulsating, ever-growing garden. It symbolizes the human inner world, where memory and dreams, temptations and losses, strength and vulnerability are intertwined.

"Today, the Biocluster allows the Biological Museum to expand the scope of its partnership projects. The "Lost Garden" exhibition will be a key milestone in the long-standing relationship between the museum and the HSE School of Art and Design. This is not just a project, but a new stage in the museum's collaboration with the country's largest educational institutions," noted Igor Ryabokon, Director of the Timiryazev State Biological Museum.

The exhibition will run until October 31.

"Biocluster" is a new multidisciplinary project by the K.A. Timiryazev State Biological Museum, located at VDNKh. It unites several thematic pavilions and garden and park areas. In June, the first exhibition, "Morphogenesis. Third Nature," opened there. It explores the transformation of form at the intersection of biology and contemporary art. The exhibition explores how the organic and the artificial merge to create new hybrid realities and unexpected forms.

The K.A. Timiryazev State Biological Museum is one of the largest biological museums in Russia, founded in 1922 by Professor Boris Zavadovsky. Today, its collections exceed 110,000 exhibits, and the exhibitions are housed both in the historic building on Malaya Gruzinskaya Street and at new sites at VDNKh. All major branches of biology, from zoology to anthropology, are represented here.
