A significant meeting for participants in the "Business and Entrepreneurship Course" module, offered by the State University of Management, was held at the All-Russian Children's Center "Ocean" as part of the "Professional Trials" educational program. Primorsky Krai Minister of Economic Development Andrey Blokhin was a guest.

"Every large business was once small. We all understand perfectly well that we have to start somewhere. You, young people, are still thinking outside the box; you may have a different approach and vision for business development. Using new technologies, like artificial intelligence, is already challenging for many adults, but not for you. Our main goal is to attract you to business and develop our economy," Andrei Blokhin told the schoolchildren.

First, the students heard a report on the development of entrepreneurship in the Far East. The minister described support measures, business projects underway in Primorye, and the grant system. He shared his personal experiences and discussed real-life cases and challenges facing the modern world with the teenagers. Afterward, each young entrepreneur had the opportunity to have their questions answered in a lively and open dialogue.

"I really enjoyed the meeting—we had a truly interesting guest. The minister spoke about business support measures in Primorsky Krai. This was very useful for me, as I plan to move to Vladivostok to live and study, and eventually start my own business. And I was interested to hear and learn about the region's future plans for entrepreneurship," shared Valeria Babicheva (Kemerovo Region).

For schoolchildren, this meeting was a unique opportunity to gain first-hand information from someone directly involved in shaping the economic policy of one of Russia's most dynamic regions.

"The 'Business and Entrepreneurship Course' module of the 'Career Trials' program, supported by the Russian Ministry of Education, is designed to help teenagers take their first conscious steps into the world of economics and entrepreneurship. The meeting with the Minister served as a powerful stimulus and source of inspiration for them to further develop their own business ideas," noted Ekaterina Snigir, a methodologist in the educational program development department at the All-Russian Children's Center "Ocean."

As a reminder, the "Business and Entrepreneurship Course" program is being implemented by the State University of Management at the initiative of the Russian Ministry of Economic Development, with the support of the "Our Future" regional social programs fund and Sberbank of Russia. The course is designed for students aged 14 to 17 and aims to develop project-based thinking, foster entrepreneurial competencies, and motivate them to make informed career choices in business and management.

Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University welcomed a representative delegation from China. A group of leaders from Central China Normal University (CCNU), led by Professor Xia Lixin, Chairman of the University Council and Secretary of the Party Committee, paid an official visit to the university. This visit was a significant event aimed at translating the existing partnership, enshrined in a 2023 agreement, into practical joint projects.

The meeting began with a welcome from Dmitry Arsenyev, SPbPU Vice-Rector for International Affairs, who emphasized the exceptional importance of Chinese cooperation for the Polytechnic University.

The People's Republic of China is our number one strategic partner. We have the largest number of partner universities and students from China, with over 2,200 currently enrolled. We are very interested in expanding our contacts with your university, as you have, among other things, a strong pedagogical and humanities program, which we also have, but which is much more developed at your university," noted Dmitry Arsenyev.

The key topic of the talks was the discussion of specific cooperation mechanisms. During the discussion, the parties agreed that the modern approach to AI is not about creating an "artificial brain," but rather about developing "intelligent assistants" that can accelerate the acquisition and transfer of knowledge. Professor Xia Lixin added that it is critically important to guide the development and application of artificial intelligence in a "good, correct direction."

The topic of digitalization of education generated particular enthusiasm among both sides. SPbPU presented its flagship platform, "Open Polytechnic," Russia's largest open education portal. Their Chinese colleagues, in turn, shared 20 years of experience in this area and their own proprietary system, "XiaoYa." Both universities expressed their intention to exchange courses and create joint educational content.

Traditional forms of academic interaction were also addressed. The parties discussed the possibility of organizing joint educational programs, as well as the participation of Chinese students in international summer and winter polytechnic schools. The SPbPU Vice-Rector noted that the university has a unique asset for Russia—an official representative office in Shanghai, opened in 2016, which could become an important hub for supporting joint initiatives.

Professor Xia Lixin, representing his university, detailed the large-scale transformation TUCC is undergoing. As a Double First Class university (a program designed to create world-class universities and academic disciplines), the university is constructing a new campus covering approximately 247 hectares, which will focus on developing applied and interdisciplinary fields.

The Chinese government has allocated significant resources for this new campus. This isn't just about expanding space, but about promoting new multi-professional areas. Our key development areas are teacher education, artificial intelligence, ecology, internationalization, and future technologies," he noted.

Following the meeting, it was decided to select one or more "pilot" areas, such as digital platforms or environmental engineering, and create working groups to quickly launch real programs and projects.

After completing the official part of the event, the delegation embarked on a campus tour, visiting the Higher School of Cyber-Physical Systems Management and the SPbPU Open Education Center to appreciate the infrastructure and innovative developments of one of Russia's leading technical universities. This visit undoubtedly gave new impetus to the strategic partnership between the two universities, opening up new horizons of opportunity for students and researchers from Russia and China.

On October 20, 1880, the Moscow Circus named after Yuri Nikulin gave its first performance on Tsvetnoy Boulevard—that very positive place where even a serious leader can allow himself to be a carefree child.

Albert Salamonsky founded the capital's circus and immediately made it famous: for the first time, they began inviting not only the most famous circus performers but also singers and folk musicians, and they also staged complex mass acts, with up to 35 horses performing in the arena. Incidentally, it was Salamonsky who came up with the idea of creating performances and New Year's parties for the youngest audiences—before him, circus shows were considered "inappropriate for children."

At first, spectators had access to only a few rows of seats and a standing gallery, but eventually the building was expanded. In 1919, the circus became state-owned, and performances continued even during the war.

The Imaginarium of Director Nikulin

In 1946, the nation's favorite circus performer, Yuri Nikulin, began his rise to fame here at the Clowning Studio. After 36 years with the circus, this legendary Soviet artist took over and oversaw a major renovation—the renovated hall opened on September 29, 1989.

They say that during the renovation, the director closely monitored the new building to ensure that there were comfortable restrooms, as children attend the performances and they should be comfortable everywhere.

But Nikulin wasn't only concerned with hygiene. Thanks to his efforts, the complex now boasts a unique air conditioning system, a rehearsal arena with a 20-meter dome, a hotel for performers, a Circus Arts Museum, a school-studio, and an on-site veterinary clinic.

Through thorns to the stars

The Russian circus of the 20th century conquered the world, with Western newspapers writing: "The Bolshoi Theatre won our hearts, and the Moscow Circus took them with it." At the turn of the century, one of the world's finest arenas encountered temporary financial difficulties, so some of its performers left to work for other companies, including the renowned Cirque du Soleil.

These days, the Circus on Tsvetnoy is doing remarkably well again—ticket sales are up to 98.5%, and each show impresses with its scale and the high skill of the performers.

Congratulations to our favorite artists on their anniversary!

It's the third Sunday in October, which means it's time to honor those who lead the family! The State University of Management has a special appreciation for Father's Day. Our university's experts, led by Rector Vladimir Stroyev and Director of the Institute of Distance Education Sergey Lenshin, developed a concept for developing a culture of fatherhood in Russia and drafted the Strategy for the Moscow Fathers' Council.

In honor of the holiday, last Friday our sports complex hosted "Fun Starts": children competed with their fathers in various relay races.

Incidentally, according to the latest study by the analytics company Civixplorer, a gender imbalance in the Russian population has been recorded. In our country, 63% of the population is women and 37% is men. And according to the Russian Social Fund, women outnumber pensioners by almost twice as much. In light of these facts, the value of fatherhood in Russia is significantly increasing, as is men's responsibility to their families.

In this regard, we wish all the fathers of the State University of Management—staff, alumni, and heads of student families—to be strong, caring, attentive, and reliable, to cherish their families and traditional values, to protect the dignity of their loved ones and our Fatherland. And you will be rewarded with love. Happy holidays!
