On September 4, 2025, the work program of the Rector of the State University of Management Vladimir Stroev continued at the Eastern Economic Forum (EEF).

Let us recall that on the first day, the rector spoke at two sessions dedicated to youth technological entrepreneurship and new forms of education and training in creative industries.

On the second day, Vladimir Stroyev became a speaker at the session “The Contribution of Universities to the Development of Human Capital for the Far East: Components of Success”. The session was also attended by Deputy Head of the Secretariat of the Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation, Secretary of the Commission on Scientific and Technological Development Antony Shvindt, Deputy Minister of Science and Higher Education Olga Petrova, Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Physical Culture and Sports Oleg Matytsin, Director for Innovation Development and the RWB Ecosystem (Wildberries

The agenda included issues of training managers for the Far Eastern region, including models for retaining personnel in this region and the need to conduct specialized MBAs for managers in the Far East.

In his speech, Vladimir Stroev shared successful university practices and innovative approaches to the development of human capital.

"Our university has been developing project-based learning for many years, not only within its walls, but also promoting it outside. It is no coincidence that the Russian Ministry of Education and Science chose the State University of Management as a federal innovation platform for the implementation of the project "Interregional Educational and Methodological Center for Project-Based Learning, Project-Based Learning as a Technology of Practical Training". Our efforts in this direction bring visible results for the students themselves," the rector said.

As one of the methods for retaining young personnel in the Far East, Vladimir Stroyev proposed developing network programs of local universities. As an example, the rector cited the cooperation of the State University of Management with the Chinese University of Ningbo, the State Scientific Center of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise "NAMI", the Samara State University of Economics and others.

"Network programs facilitate academic mobility. Students go to study in another region for a year, learn from new teachers, establish horizontal connections, learn to be responsible and independent, but to complete their studies they must return to their small homeland to receive a diploma and their first job there," Vladimir Stroyev emphasized.

The rector also spoke about distance learning methods – the work of the Digital Corps of the State University of Management. In particular, it was announced that 9,000 people are currently its users, including 200 residents of the Far Eastern Federal District through the Primary Office of the "Movement of the First" and 150 through the Accelerator for Youth Policy and Educational Activities together with the Ministry of Education and Science.

In conclusion of his speech, the rector mentioned the work of the Higher School of Business and Technology of the State University of Management, which held a number of project and strategic sessions for the employees of the Vladivostok Administration on the topic of lean manufacturing and business process optimization.

On September 4, 2025, the State University of Management hosted a presentation of the acceleration program “Spectrum of Innovations”, conducted by the university as part of the federal project “Technologies”.

Vice-Rector Dmitry Bryukhanov addressed the audience with a welcoming speech:

"We have integrated the accelerator program into the students' project-based learning, which provides additional opportunities without increasing the academic workload. In addition, we plan to gradually develop the accelerator to the defense of projects within the framework of the Startup as a Diploma competition, the winner of which this year was our student with an innovative development. This once again shows that the university's infrastructure allows us to implement any plans, create prototypes and products, and find external investors. I urge you to make the most of these opportunities," the vice-rector concluded.

Yulia Vorokhob, an expert at the Open Innovations startup studio and senior tracker for the 2025 Spectrum of Innovations Acceleration Program, spoke in more detail about the accelerator’s operating principles and its benefits for students:

"The accelerator is aimed at helping you as managers feel and understand the importance of digitalization and a product approach in any area of activity. There are many cases where projects that started in student days have reached the global level and brought success to their creators. If 20 years ago, you had to look for funds and start in a garage, today you have a safe accelerator environment where you can use the university's resources, receive support and develop something new, relying on someone else's experience."

The organizers did not limit themselves to theory and invited Varvara Karamysheva, a graduate of the State University of Management, a multiple participant in accelerators and winner of various project competitions, to the meeting. The girl told how she created her projects, how the accelerator helped her and how to bring projects to physical implementation.

"You won't be able to bring a project to perfection the first time. You need experience, long-term work, analysis of mistakes and constant improvement of your product. This is exactly what an accelerator is for: it will help develop strengths, get an external assessment and get rid of fantasies. Today, we are negotiating with a large company about joint implementation of one startup and received a grant of 1 million rubles to implement another project. Looking back, I understand that it all started with the first call with our supervisor in the first year of the State University of Management and his words that we are starting to make startups."

At the end of the event, the director of the project office of the State University of Management Anastasia Lobacheva summed up the meeting and called on the students to use the opportunity provided by the university to prove themselves in the entrepreneurial sphere and get the most out of their studies.

On September 4, a ceremonial event dedicated to the 10th anniversary of the institution took place in Vsevolozhsk at the site of the Multicenter for Social and Labor Integration. In the presence of the Governor of the Leningrad Region Alexander Drozdenko, the rector of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University Andrey Rudskoy and the director of the Multicenter Irina Drozdenko signed an agreement on strategic partnership. The agreement provides for the development of joint activities in the educational, scientific, technical and social spheres with an emphasis on supporting participants and veterans of the special military operation and is aimed at strengthening the country's technological leadership in accordance with the goals of the federal program "Priority-2030".

The cooperation is being developed as a systemic project of SPbPU — from identifying educational needs and forming a network of partners to designing digital tools and implementing adapted retraining programs. The work is coordinated by the Directorate of Continuing Education and Industry Partnership of SPbPU together with the Institute of Mechanical Engineering, Materials and Transport of the university, which ensures the integration of engineering training with social support mechanisms.

In the near future, a network training and production center for training operators of CNC machines will be opened on the basis of the Multicenter. The emergence of such a laboratory will become an important milestone in applied engineering training and will expand the opportunities for professional retraining for those who have returned from the front and are striving for sustainable employment in industry.

Commenting on the agreements reached, Andrey Rudskoy emphasized: Over the past ten years, the Multicenter has become not just an educational institution, but a real school of social integration and a reliable support for those who especially need help. Support for veterans of the SVO at the Polytechnic is based on a systemic approach: we do not limit ourselves to individual courses, but build holistic educational trajectories – from diagnostics and career guidance to professional retraining and employment. This format allows not only to adapt to civilian life, but also to obtain in-demand competencies for participation in the development of the economy and technological leadership of the country.

Vice-Rector for Continuing and Pre-University Education at SPbPU Dmitry Tikhonov also outlined his position: Cooperation with the Multicenter is of particular importance to us in the context of creating the Polytechnic Center for Professional Development and New Competencies for Veterans of the SVO. The Polytechnic is already launching the first programs and recruiting military personnel who are fulfilling their military duty for training. In the coming months, we will launch pilot courses to fine-tune the mechanisms of mentoring, internships, and subsequent employment. Our task is to ensure a rapid, practice-oriented transition to in-demand engineering specializations.

The signing of the agreement was a logical continuation of the development of the partnership between SPbPU and the Multicenter insupport for veterans of the SVO and their involvement in solving technological leadership problems. The current stage expands the horizons of cooperation, transforming individual initiatives into a holistic and replicable model – with clear entrances for participants, transparent navigation, mentor support and direct communication with industry requests. The combined efforts of SPbPU and the Multicenter form a sustainable practice that combines respect for human experience with modern technological solutions, and serves as a basis for further scaling in the interests of the region and the country.
