The consortium council unanimously approved the candidates, sending the documents for final approval to the Russian Ministry of Education and Science. If successful, Liu Wei and Issa Togo will join the ranks of 24 current ambassadors from 22 countries.

"Liu Wei and Issa Togo are not just allies, but living bridges between cultures. Their dedication to education is the polytechnic spirit in action: when a graduate, wherever he is, continues to carry the banner of his alma mater. We are proud that it is our candidates who set the tone in promoting Russian values abroad. Their recognition is an investment in the future, where science and education know no boundaries," commented Dmitry Arsenyev, Vice-Rector for International Affairs at SPbPU.

Under the program "Ambassadors of Russian Education and Science", which unites 44 universities of the country, since 2023, 24 experts from Europe, Asia, Africa and Latin America have been awarded the title. Polytechnic University is traditionally among the most active participants in the initiative.

On July 11, 2025, a meeting of the Public Expert Council on Socio-Economic Forecasting and Planning was held jointly with the Board of Trustees of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences on the topic: "Scientific, technological, spatial and transport development of the country and management issues", in which the rector of the State University of Management Vladimir Stroyev took part.

The meeting was chaired by the coordinator of the Public Expert Council for Socioeconomic Forecasting and Planning, head of the "A Just Russia – For Truth" faction in the State Duma, Sergei Mironov. The co-chair was the chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences, Sergei Stepashin.

The meeting heard 10 reports, including from the rector of the State University of Management Vladimir Stroyev, the president of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences, a graduate of the State University of Management Petr Burak, the deputy president of the Russian Academy of Sciences Vladimir Ivanov and other experts.

Vladimir Stroyev shared with the audience the experience of the State University of Management in implementing new approaches to scientific and educational policy in universities. The rector spoke about the principle of practice-oriented seamless project-based education implemented at SUM, the policy of attracting new research staff and technical specialists, cooperation with industrial partners and government agencies. Separately, the expansion of the university's material and technical base, the opening of new laboratories and the work of the student design bureau were mentioned.

“I would like to emphasize that our university now has a unique experience – relying on many years of engineering and economic history, we are to some extent rethinking the role of the State University of Management in the system of higher education: due to the integration of technical sciences into the educational process and taking into account the project-oriented approach, the State University of Management is becoming not just a managerial, but also an engineering and economic one,” Vladimir Vitalyevich summarized.

Having heard and discussed the reports, the participants of the meeting noted that the main strategic task of the country's development, which requires the maximum concentration of resources, both material, financial and human, is to ensure harmonious sustainable development, dynamic improvement of the quality of life, ensuring national sovereignty and security. This can be achieved only with the presence of our own high-tech competitive scientific, technological and industrial complex, based on advanced fundamental science and operating in the full innovation cycle mode.

An urgent task is to form a comprehensive system of public administration of the country's scientific and technological complex, adapted to existing realities, focused on ensuring technological sovereignty, designed to create a technological foundation for achieving national goals, national security, and to ensure the country's entry into the ranks of states that are global technological leaders in most areas.

A joint meeting of the presidiums of the Public Organization and the Regional Association of Employers "Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs of St. Petersburg" (SPP SPb) was held at the Polytechnic University. The main issue on the agenda was the introduction of artificial intelligence technologies in St. Petersburg industry.

The meeting was chaired by the President of the Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs of St. Petersburg Anatoly Turchak and the First Vice President, General Director of the Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs of St. Petersburg Mikhail Lobin.

The relevance of the topic is due to the fact that the use of artificial intelligence in industry will help solve many problems, such as increasing labor productivity, reducing costs, optimizing production processes, forecasting and identifying technological patterns. In recent years, the trend towards digitalization of enterprises has been growing largely due to government support through national projects and federal programs. According to estimates by the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia, by 2030, AI will be implemented in 95% of industries.

Among the problems and barriers hindering the rapid implementation of AI in industry, Anatoly Turchak named the high cost of development, the shortage of qualified specialists and outdated software at enterprises. The meeting discussed these and other issues in the field of expanding the use of AI in industry.

Vice-Rector for Research Yuri Fomin, who oversees the key scientific and technical direction (KNTD) for the development of AI technologies within the framework of the Priority-2030 program at the Polytechnic University, spoke about the platform solutions that SPbPU scientists offer to industrialists.

Yuri Vladimirovich presented the university's innovative projects aimed at developing digital technologies and artificial intelligence (AI). In 2025, SPbPU plans to attract 320 million rubles for scientific and technological developments and services for industrial enterprises.

Among the key projects:

Digital platform for processing and analyzing multimodal data with predictive and prescriptive analytics functions; Flexible lifecycle management system for power plant equipment based on predictive analytics; Digital platform for analyzing transport systems using hybrid AI; Multi-agent decision support systems in industry and construction; Automation of seismic data processing using artificial neural networks; AI technologies for retrosynthetic analysis of Big Data in biochemistry (structure-activity); "Smart Nose" – an odor recognition system based on a MEMS chip; BioMedAI – fundamental AI models in neurobiology.

These developments represent cutting-edge solutions for digital transformation, demonstrating the leadership of our scientists in the field of AI technologies and their readiness to cooperate with industrial enterprises, the vice-rector emphasized.

Valentin Makarov, President of the Non-Commercial Partnership of Software Developers "RUSSOFT", spoke about neural network technologies for business that are available in the organization's arsenal.

The meeting participants discussed the issues outlined by the speakers and, for their part, proposed measures to improve the efficiency of using AI at St. Petersburg industrial enterprises. The debate on the reports was attended by Georgy Antsev, General Director and General Designer of the Radar MMS Research and Production Enterprise, Mikhail Silnikov, General Director of the Research and Production Association of Special Materials, Alexander Lopota, Director and Chief Designer of the Central Research and Experimental Design Institute of Robotics and Technical Cybernetics, and others.

The meeting was held with the participation of the Deputy Chairman of the Committee for Industrial Policy, Innovation and Trade of St. Petersburg, Alexey Yakovlev, who in his closing remarks emphasized the importance of re-equipping production to increase the competitiveness of St. Petersburg enterprises and spoke about measures to support industrial modernization by the state.

In turn, representatives of industrial enterprises noted the productivity of such meetings, which unite the efforts of science and business to develop Russia’s innovative economy and achieve technological leadership for the country.

"Projects of the Future": IPMET Successfully Defended Final Qualification Theses

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The Institute of Industrial Management, Economics and Trade successfully defended their final qualification works "Project as a Final Qualification Work". 21 projects were completed in a special format: nine complex and 12 group projects, in which 57 final-year students took part (48 undergraduate, nine specialist and master's students).

A group final qualifying work is a coordinated development or research carried out by a team of students united by one object and common problems. A comprehensive final qualifying work is a joint development or research carried out by a team of students within the framework of a common topic.

Since 2023, our institute has been actively and successfully implementing projects for the preparation and defense of final qualification works of bachelors, specialists and masters commissioned by industrial partners, government agencies and commercial organizations in the format of “Project as a final qualification work”. A special feature of our projects is that they are all carried out by multipotential teams consisting of students from different educational programs, and in most cases, from different fields of study. I would like to note the great interest on the part of students: they not only demonstrate qualifications in their field, but also acquire new related knowledge and skills, including in teamwork, – notes Vladimir Shchepinin, Director of IPMEIT.

In 2023, the institute completed three group final qualification works commissioned by partners: Power Machines — Leningrad Metal Plant, TGK-1, and TD-Materik. Last year, 13 project final qualification works were presented (four integrated and nine group). The list of customers, in addition to industrial enterprises, included representatives of retail and the public sector.

This year, IPMET has carried out a lot of preliminary work on interaction with potential customers and received requests for projects to be carried out by multipotential teams from more than 20 employer representatives. These are Eurostil, the Center for Competence in Tourism and Hospitality, the ASI All-Russian Accelerator for Industrial Tourism, MKT, the Krasnogvardeisky District Center for Scientific and Technical Information, the Rosfinmonitoring Regional Office for the Northwestern Federal District, and the PlaceMarket restaurant chain.

Significant contributions were made by the directors of the higher schools of IPMEiT Olga Kalinina, Dmitry Rodionov, Olga Voronova, Olga Nadezhina, as well as those responsible for project activities in the structural divisions.

Projects developed and implemented by students allow for a significant expansion of resource capabilities. Students actively generate ideas, exchange knowledge and experience, and improve their teamwork skills. They need to constructively resolve disagreements and make decisions collectively to achieve results. All this is extremely important for a specialist entering active working life, emphasized Yulia Akimova, Head of the Center for Team Building and Project Solutions at IPMET.

All projects received high marks from customers, and final qualifying works were awarded “excellent” marks by state examination committees.

The Institute implements defenses of final qualification works in various formats, providing high-quality methodological and organizational support. Our team of managers, consultants and mentors in close cooperation with qualified customers are always ready to help student teams, competently organize their work and focus on the result, – emphasized the Deputy Director of IPMET for educational and methodological work Anna Chernikova.

Most of the students participating in “projects like final qualifying work” are already employed or have received offers from customers.
