Business in the Digital Age: The Secret of Successful Start-ups


Russia’s IT entrepreneurship and tech start-up ecosystems are characterized by their breadth and diversity, presence across various economic sectors and use across a wide variety of business models. Despite their high technical potential, many Russian start-ups and projects don’t make it to the commercial stage. New projects often fail at the prototyping stage, meaning that teams cannot test their products or prove their value and practical application. If this trend isn’t reversed, the technology gap will widen. What does the tech entrepreneurship landscape in Russia look like today? What are the promising markets and niches in the IT industry? How can start-ups assemble highly motivated teams without big investments, and how can ideas be protected from plagiarism? What is the ideal start-up model? Where should companies start, how do they find their niche, and what about prototyping and pilots? What is the role of accelerators and development institutions? How should tech start-ups go about looking for investment?

The Future of Youth Humanitarian Values: A Paradigm Shift


One of the explanations for the identity crisis young people face today is the transformation of their value system. What is influencing this value system, how can humanitarian values be instilled in children from the very beginning, and how is this value system connected to the “competencies and intellects of the future”? A paradigm shift is underway, with new knowledge about the world and values that reflect a new world. Based on what we know so far, these are values that can change the world for the better, through volunteering and environmentally conscious behaviours. How are the values of modern youth formed and how can the values of the next generation be fostered and developed from childhood? What will the values of the next generation be in a world of changing technologies, and how can we instill humanitarian values in young people? How can ‘future’ knowledge and competencies contribute to the values-based development of young people? How can children be encouraged to adopt environmentally conscious behaviour and show an interest in volunteering?

The Youth View on the Greater Eurasian Partnership: New Opportunities for Regional and Global Cooperation


Eurasian cooperation is a priority area of development for Russia. The idea at the heart of the country’s partnership policy is the creation of a space for joint development through a system of economic relations, taking into account the interests of all participants without being tied to the signing of any one collective agreement. Another important aspect of the partnership is cooperation between young people and youth integration associations operating in Eurasian nations. How can a single platform for interaction between representative youth groups of integration associations (EAEU, CIS, SCO) be created? How can coordination between these associations and public and private organizations be improved? What difficulties do young people face when implementing projects today?

The Far East is Changing: Benchmarks in the Youth-Led Transformation of the Far Eastern Territories


Human capital underpins the innovation economy and helps to support the stable economic functioning of any city, especially young cities. How can young people be drawn to new cities? What should government agencies and local authorities, public organizations, the business community and the local residents themselves do to make their cities as competitive as possible in terms of human capital? When people make decisions about where to live, they invariably look at the surrounding infrastructure, taking into account green spaces, cosy public gardens and places where they can walk with their children or spend time with friends. A comfortable environment for residents provides the foundation of any city where people might want to live. How can the young cities of the Far East attract investment? What successful experiences and tools exist for attracting young people to the urban environment, and how can they be applied to young cities? How can small cities become attractive to their residents and compete with highly developed megacities?

Identifying Opportunities for Young People in the Far East


The Far East is home to around 2.5 million young people aged between 14 and 35, and the progressive development of the Far East would be impossible without involving and taking into account the views of young people. While young people are very well placed to offer creative contributions, they do not always feel that the state is willing to listen, which makes them feel abandoned and more inclined to leave. Research has shown that only 1% to 3% of young people in the Far East are involved in state youth policy. At the same time, the many opportunities for young people to achieve their potential go unnoticed and fail to reach the people who need them most. How can young people find out about the opportunities that have been made available to them? What needs to be done in order for young people to feel the benefits of Russia’s eastward turn? Which state services are reaching young people today and realizing demand, and which ones need to be updated and improved?

Why Legal Literacy is Vital for Young Entrepreneurs


The majority of school-age children and students dream of having their own business. One of the factors preventing young people from starting their own business, however, is the fear of bearing legal liability for its activities and many respondents indicated that they are afraid of receiving criminal penalties. This session will look at the importance of doing business within a legal framework, as well as the state protection mechanisms available, discussing them in a way that is understandable and accessible to young people. What are the rights of young entrepreneurs? How can ideas be protected, and how can tax burdens be reduced legally? What state protection is available in the case of unlawful attacks on businesses?

Councils of Young Scientists of the Far East: The Scale of Regional and Federal Communication


In order to implement the Strategy for Scientific and Technological Development of the Russian Federation, the National Projects of the Russian Federation, the National Programme for the Development of the Far East, and the Year of Science and Technology in the Russian Federation, Russia's science and education policy has allocated a significant role to supporting young scientists. The Russian Ministry of Science and Higher Education plans to provide grant support for Student Scientific Societies and Councils of Young Scientists on a competitive basis. A key priority of the Coordination Council for Youth Affairs in the Sphere of Science and Education, which is part of the Presidential Council for Science and Education, is the interaction between student scientific societies and organizations, municipalities, constituent entities, and federal districts, as well as with authorities at various levels. Limitations caused by the remoteness of the Far East region from the central part of Russia and the level of transport accessibility between science and education centres in the Far Eastern Federal District have been further exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. In the current situation, the well-established interaction of the Councils of Young Scientists of the Far East becomes more relevant than ever before and requires an engaged dialogue of all participants.

Facing East: How Can Young People Find Their Feet on the Labour Market?


Pursuing lifelong learning, one of the key principles of ongoing development, is a common cause of ‘educational procrastination’, whereby a young person’s potential grows at the expense of their fulfillment. A team of experts at the Senezh management workshop has put forward a principle of lifelong development, a form of ongoing development that can be used when designing educational formats to reduce the lag between the acquisition of knowledge and skills and their application in the real world. Furthermore, career guidance for younger people is becoming increasingly important and challenging in Russia. It is essential not only in order to reveal the talents and professional capacities of a given student, but also to balance issues of staff shortages and surpluses across various industries. What is the right age for young people to start receiving career guidance, and should it be purely practical? Do internships and placements help young people to choose their careers?

We Are Hooked: Facing the Facts about Social Media


Social media has revolutionized how we communicate. For many people, posting and reading messages has become a need as fundamental as food. Social networks have changed the face of broadcast journalism, segmented society according to people’s interests, and become a tool both for the dissemination of knowledge and the global manipulation of consumer and political choices. While traditional mass media was once a centralized vehicle for the creation of meanings, today messages can appear in one of thousands of niche social media groups and spread to wide audiences at lightning speed. According to a VCIOM poll, the main sources of information for Russians today are television, the internet (news, analytics and official websites), social media and blogs. Young people (18–24 years) get their facts and opinions primarily from bloggers. Is social media today the voice of the people or a managed ecosystem? What is the value of social media to youth and how does this compare to older generations? How is social media impacting people’s behavioral patterns within society and their worldviews? Are bloggers a viable alternative to classic news institutions? How can destructive uses of social media be resisted? How will social media change over time? How can the power of social media be harnessed to promote creative agendas, successful businesses and interesting countries and cities? How does information provided by bloggers ‘on the ground’ help various regions? How can it be used to support the development of domestic tourism and the regional economy?
