    Bashneft (part of Rosneft) allocated 9.5 billion rubles for environmental projects in 2024. Over the past five years, Bashneft’s green investments have exceeded 37.6 billion rubles.

    Preservation of the environment for future generations is an integral part of the corporate culture of Rosneft Oil Company. The activities of all the Company’s enterprises are aimed at achieving leadership positions in the field of minimizing the impact on the environment and improving the environmental friendliness of production.

    One of the significant areas of Bashneft’s environmental activities is the restoration of forests and aquatic bioresources. In 2024, the Company’s employees planted almost 750 thousand trees on an area of more than 200 hectares in the Republic of Bashkortostan, the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug – Yugra and the Nenets Autonomous Okrug. This figure exceeds the results of the previous period by 45%.

    As part of initiatives to preserve ecosystems and maintain biodiversity in the regions where it operates, Bashneft is implementing projects to reproduce aquatic bioresources. Oil workers have released more than 160,000 sterlet, muksun and salmon fry into the water bodies of Bashkortostan, the Khanty-Mansiysk and Nenets Autonomous Okrugs. The releases were carried out under the supervision of employees of the departments of state control, supervision and protection of aquatic biological resources, who select suitable water bodies based on optimal conditions for reproduction and restoration of the population.

    The biological treatment facilities of the Ufa group of oil refineries have processed 157 million m3 of wastewater since their launch in 2019. The biological treatment facilities serve not only the Bashneft oil refineries, but also treat wastewater from more than 50 enterprises in the northern industrial zone of Ufa and stormwater. The treatment facilities provide the highest level of purification of industrial, stormwater and domestic wastewater, which increases the volume of reused water in technological processes by 2.5 times. Thanks to the membrane reactor technology, all impurities and microorganisms are removed from the wastewater. As a result, the water quality meets the standards for water bodies used for fisheries.

    Reference:

    ANK Bashneft is one of the oldest enterprises in the country’s oil and gas industry, operating in the extraction and processing of oil and gas. The company’s key assets, including an oil refining and petrochemical complex, are located in the Republic of Bashkortostan. Oil and gas exploration and production are also carried out in the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug – Yugra, the Nenets Autonomous Okrug, the Orenburg Region, the Perm Territory and the Republic of Tatarstan.

    The 3rd All-Russian Interdepartmental Scientific and Practical Conference “Current Issues of Security of the Russian Federation” was held at the State University of Management. Its holding was initiated by the management of the Institute of Distance Education of the State University of Management with the active participation of the non-profit organization “Innovation Fund”.

    In addition to an impressive number of representatives of the scientific community and experts from various ministries and departments, for the first time the Conference was attended by the former Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, and now the Inspector General of the Russian Ministry of Defense, General of the Army Yuri Baluevsky, as well as Doctor of Military Sciences, Colonel General Vladimir Moltenskoy, and representatives of military command bodies and veteran organizations.

    On the eve of the event, a meeting of military leaders with the management of the State University of Management represented by Rector Vladimir Stroyev and Advisor to the Rectorate Nikolay Mikhailov took place. During the conversation, Yuri Baluevsky spoke warmly about the university’s centuries-old traditions and the university’s major role in training industry managers for the country, and also outlined the need to develop cooperation in the area of training modern management personnel, taking into account the main trends in the development of modern society.

    Yuri Nikolaevich also spoke with university students and expressed a desire to have an “open conversation about something important” with them in the near future.

    During the Conference, issues of military and economic security, the current state and prospects of the fight against terrorism and extremism, theoretical and legal problems of comprehensive security of society, information, industrial and environmental security were considered and, of course, much attention was paid to issues of youth policy and its role in ensuring state security.

    Director of the Institute of Distance Education Sergey Lenshin, in his welcoming speech to the Conference participants, drew attention to the multipolarity of the tasks that go far beyond the issues outlined in the Conference program, but which need to be addressed today.

    Of great interest was the speech by Army General Yuri Baluevsky, who shared his many years of experience and drew the audience’s attention to the fact that “Russia has not had, does not have, and never will have allies other than its army and navy, that the Central Military District has demonstrated the need to improve many aspects of military development and has required a reassessment of the role and place of different types of weapons in armed confrontation.”

    Almost all participants of the Conference emphasized the relevance of issues related to the continuity of generations, the transmission and preservation of the heroic traditions of our country, the preservation of the historical memory of its military glory and the need for spiritual and moral education of youth.

    At the end of the Conference, high-ranking guests were given tours of the university and the halls of the State University of Management Museum.

    The Olympiad was held on February 26-28 at the Novosibirsk State Medical University. Talented students from all over the Siberian Federal District came to the event to compete in more than twenty contests, including tying surgical knots, kidney and nerve transplants, and operations on experimental animals.

    The Olympiad lasted three days. Two of them were devoted to performing various operations, and on the last day, participants were tested on their ability to tie knots at speed, and also looked through creative business cards.

    — In the future, I plan to connect my life with neurosurgery, and the Olympiad is a great place to meet colleagues and mentors, as well as further hone my skills, learn weak points in order to work on them. The most difficult thing was not even the operations themselves, since we worked on them for a long time, but in the moment to cope with anxiety, calm my hands so that they do not shake, find a way out if I made a mistake, but the team helps a lot with this, — admits Ekaterina Vasenina, a 4th-year student Faculty of Medicine and Psychology, NSU, which became a prize winner in the nominations “Plastic Surgery” and “Microvascular Anastomosis” as an operator.

    — I decided to take part because I dream of becoming a trauma surgeon, and since childhood, thanks to my father, I have been surrounded by the attributes of surgery in one way or another — surgical instruments were used at home on par with construction ones, medical cases were discussed at the table. When I found out that I had become a prize winner, to be honest, I squealed with joy and hurried to brag to my parents, grandparents. For me, participating in an Olympiad of this format was a debut, so I am very proud of myself and my team! Despite the fact that we gathered for training before the Olympiad, we never performed the entire operation “from start to finish” before the Olympiad, which is why our success was also a surprise. My team — Sergey and Yaroslav — are great, they got together and did what we had never managed to do during training. I am proud of them! We all tried hard, and this was reflected in the result we got – we deserved the prize place, said Sofia Eksharova, a 4th year student. Faculty of Medicine and Psychology, NSU, which became a prize winner in the nomination “Osteometallosynthesis” as an operator.

    Individual results for competitions in which NSU students won prizes:

    — Plastic surgery PSO: operator — E. Vasenina, assistant — D. Akhtyrtseva.

    — Osteometallosynthesis: operator — S. Eksharova, assistant — S. Balasov, nurse — Ya. Rusanov.

    — Microvascular anastomosis: operator — E. Vasenina, assistant — D. Akhtyrtseva.

    — It was both unexpected and joyful. I was an operator at 3 stages, but I was completely satisfied with my work only at one operation, it was with it that I took first place, in the remaining two I understood that there were moments that needed to be worked on, but for one of them I received third place, which, of course, was a pleasant moment, — shared Ekaterina Vasenina.

    For Ekaterina and Sofia, this was the first experience of participating in an Olympiad of such a scale, which gave them a ton of impressions, acquaintances and motivation to develop skills and knowledge.

    Congratulations to the guys on their victories!

    Today they operate modern Moskva trains on two metro lines: lines 4 and 15.

    Before becoming drivers, each of them completed training at the Corporate University of Moscow Transport.

    Interesting fact: on Line 4, all train drivers – both men and women – work together with assistants. This is the only metro line that is not equipped with the ALS-ARS system (automatic locomotive signaling with automatic speed control), which requires two drivers to operate the train.

    Women returned to the profession of Moscow Metro train drivers in January 2021, and their numbers continue to grow. Today, there are 120 female train drivers and their assistants. We create comfortable working conditions for all employees in accordance with the initiative of Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, added Maxim Liksutov.

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Central Bank of Russia –

    Corporate lending slowed to 2.9% in Q4 2024, partly due to active debt repayment by companies that received compensation under government contracts. Growth for the year was a fairly strong 17.9%, but a more moderate increase of 8-13% is expected in 2025.

    The growth rate of the mortgage portfolio also continued to decline and amounted to 1.5% for the quarter, mainly due to a reduction in market mortgages in the context of high rates. For the whole of 2024, mortgages increased by 13.4%, and in 2025 growth is expected at the level of 3-8%.

    The consumer loan portfolio decreased by 2% in the quarter, and increased by 11.2% overall for the year. According to the Bank of Russia, in 2025 its growth will slow down to a level of -1 to 4%, including due to tight monetary and macroprudential policies.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Polytechnic University presented the university development program at the Council of the Ministry of Education and Science

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University – Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University –

    A meeting of the Council for Support of Universities’ Development Programs — Participants in the Priority-2030 Program is being held in Moscow, chaired by the Minister of Science and Higher Education Valery Falkov. The Council includes representatives of the Russian Academy of Sciences, leading industrial companies and public organizations. From March 12 to 15, 101 universities (the majority of Priority participants) are presenting their annual reports and development programs. Since 2025, Priority-2030 has been implemented within the framework of the Youth and Children national project.

    Currently, the Priority-2030 program is being transformed to meet the objectives of technological leadership, noted the head of the Russian Ministry of Education and Science Valery Falkov. On the instructions of Russian President Vladimir Putin, the program’s implementation has been extended for six years – until 2030. In accordance with the updated strategic documents of the Russian Federation on national goals, scientific and technological development and priority science-intensive technologies, changes have been made to the architecture of the Priority-2030 program, including those related to performance targets and evaluation criteria.

    Previously, universities were divided into recipients of the basic part of the grant and two special grants (for territorial and industry leadership). From this year, the Ministry of Education and Science noted, a single council will form a general rating of the effectiveness of university development programs. At the same time, commissions for creative and Far Eastern tracks, as well as for universities-candidates for “Priority”, are retained. Now the emphasis is on assessing the target model of the university, including its compliance with the tasks of technological leadership. Based on the results of the defense, universities will be divided into groups with different funding.

    The Polytechnic delegation to the meeting of the Council for Support of Universities Development Programs — Participants of the Priority-2030 Program was headed by Rector, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences Andrey Rudskoy. Vice-Rector for Digital Transformation Alexey Borovkov, Vice-Rector for Research Yury Fomin, Vice-Rector for Educational Activities Lyudmila Pankova, Acting Vice-Rector for Advanced Projects Maria Vrublevskaya and Director of the Scientific and Educational Center “Mechanical Engineering Technologies and Materials” Pavel Novikov also took part in the defense of the university development program.

    The main objective of the Polytechnic University as a scientific center with world-class competencies is to ensure the country’s technological leadership. Our competitive advantage is in our polytechnicity: in today’s complex and rapidly changing conditions, it is the synergistic efforts of various scientific fields that allow us to create breakthrough technologies. We have long been developing interdisciplinary research teams, investing funds, including under the Priority 2030 grant, in the development of research infrastructure, which allows us to create unique developments and facilitate their rapid implementation in production. Thus, the research and technology teams we support have demonstrated a high level of efficiency: since 2021, more than 150 technologies and developments have been created, 9 of which have been brought to Technology Readiness Level (TRL) 8-9, 84 – to TRL 6-7. We have also launched small-scale production of parts for gas pumping devices – this is vital for the country’s energy sector. We plan to scale up successful practices by attracting students and postgraduates to science and developing joint educational programs with industry representatives. We strive to form a new generation of technological leaders in Russia, – noted SPbPU Rector, RAS Academician Andrey Rudskoy.

    The target model of the Polytechnic University is based on the effective work of a qualified contractor with a qualified customer. Effective actions based on knowledge and technology allow us to form a scientific and technological reserve on a systemic basis, which characterizes a qualified contractor. A breakthrough, in fact, an exit to another level of development, is associated with the formulation of frontier engineering tasks by a qualified customer. This is how globally competitive market products are created. Particular attention is paid to the transfer of knowledge through a new educational model with variable terms of basic educational programs. The Polytechnic University trains highly qualified personnel for the tasks of the industry and, together with industrial partners, forms the image of a graduate – what competencies, skills, knowledge and abilities he or she should have. This allows us to train highly qualified engineers who are ready to start working at an enterprise immediately after graduating. The key principle in designing the educational process is the triad “education – science – industry” with the decisive role of the industrial component.

    At the defense, the Polytechnic team presented a model for the university’s development focusing on three key scientific and technological areas, within which three strategic technological projects are planned to be implemented. They are all interconnected: these are system digital engineering, artificial intelligence for solving cross-industry problems, and new materials and means of production.

    Digital engineering accelerates the development process through the use of mathematical and computer modeling, advanced digital technologies and digital testing, which allows the creation of digital twins of high-tech industrial products.

    We plan to create a Center for testing, verification and validation of domestic industrial software – computer-aided engineering software systems (CAE systems), as well as to develop mathematical, computer and digital models for key industries, primarily mechanical engineering, for nuclear and power engineering, for the development of gas turbine, electric and piston engines, for composite materials and metabiomaterials, for the development and implementation of a specialized process of “digital certification” of UAVs of all types (aircraft, helicopter, multirotor, convertiplanes, seaplanes and hydroamphibians, etc.), – noted Vice-Rector for Digital Transformation Alexey Borovkov.

    Today, it is impossible to ensure technological leadership in the global market without artificial intelligence technologies. Our scientists, taking into account global trends, use AI in almost all areas. At the same time, the most popular in industry and medicine is explainable artificial intelligence (XAI). This direction focuses on creating AI models whose decisions can be understood and interpreted by humans.

    The main objective of the Polytechnic University AI Center is to create a digital platform by 2030 that will ensure the development and transfer to various branches of industry and healthcare of modern cross-cutting and industry-specific solutions based on standard models, methods and algorithms of various artificial intelligence technologies created by our scientists, as well as the creation of new effective data analysis tools, commented Vice-Rector for Research Yuri Fomin.

    New materials and means of production are a necessary and essential element of industrial transformation. Here, Polytechnic University sees its technological superiority and solves state tasks of technological leadership. The strategic project is aimed at creating small-scale science-intensive production of power engineering products obtained by additive technologies, as well as the development and production of power sources. Thus, Polytechnic University has developed a manufacturing technology and conducted operational tests as part of the engine of the guide blades of the first stage of the high-pressure turbine of the ground-based gas turbine unit type GT-750-6, designed to drive a centrifugal supercharger of natural gas. The level of the implemented product, confirmed by the industrial partner, is UGT 9.

    During the project implementation, Polytechnic engineers launched small-scale production of parts at the university. This allows for prompt repair of components of the Russian energy complex. In the next three years, the university will address both civil and special-purpose issues. In particular, this includes the production of critical parts of the hot tract of gas turbine gas pumping units for PJSC Gazprom, and in the field of shipbuilding, the repair and production of parts of gas turbine power plants, said Anatoly Popovich, Director of the Institute of Mechanical Engineering, Materials and Transport.

    The University continues its course on rejuvenating its staff and supporting young research teams. Like all universities, the Polytechnic University will have to transition to a new model of engineering training.

    SPbPU together with Severstal for the first time will launch a pilot multi-track model for training engineers in the field of metallurgy and materials science. The new model will allow students to obtain a full-fledged higher engineering education and, after graduation, seamlessly begin their professional activities. The university plans to develop and scale this experience. Currently, the Polytechnic University has 30 corporate programs. SPbPU trains highly qualified engineers, as well as future leaders in production: special attention is paid to students who, in addition to serious fundamental training, have leadership qualities, systemic thinking and strategic vision, as well as a sufficient level of responsibility and desire to lead the direction, noted Vice-Rector for Educational Activities Lyudmila Pankova.

    The Polytechnic University’s vector is in the implementation of the most important state tasks of a high technological level for a number of strategic partners. These are Rosatom, UEC, Power Machines, Gazprom, Gazpromneft, etc. The university sees the importance of building business processes that facilitate the fastest possible advancement of technologies to the level of implementation and small-scale production at the university, – noted Acting Vice-Rector for Prospective Projects Maria Vrublevskaya.

    The ambitious targets according to the development program include a multiple increase in profitability. The university plans to triple its R&D income as early as 2030.

    The Roscongress Foundation is a major organizer of all-Russian and international congress, exhibition, business, public, youth, sporting and cultural events, created in accordance with the decision of the President of the Russian Federation. Every year, the Roscongress Foundation recruits volunteers from among students of leading universities in St. Petersburg, including our university, to work at international forums. It was for this purpose that a meeting of Roscongress representatives with students was held at SPbGASU.

    Welcoming those gathered, Vice-Rector for Youth Policy Marina Malyutina explained that our university has planned a series of meetings within the framework of the volunteer movement, where they will also talk about measures to support the volunteers themselves.

    “We intend to make the volunteer movement at our university strong. Firstly, today many people need help. Secondly, by helping others, you can better express yourself and reveal your personal qualities, including those you did not even know about. Thirdly, this is a fashionable and youth trend, and being in it means being in a circle of like-minded people and being aware of the most exciting events in the country and the world. Fourthly, support measures and motivation tools are being developed for volunteers at the state level. At our university, we want to recreate a volunteer club taking into account modern realities and introduce a system for monitoring volunteer activities with further support. Our university is already registered on the largest social platform in Russia, Dobro.rf, where volunteers can find opportunities to help, and organizers can find people willing to help. We will actively cooperate on it. In addition, we plan to develop a system for awarding points that will influence the increase of the state academic scholarship for students of the budget form of education who have grades of “good” and “excellent”. The number of points will be awarded depending on the level of the event in which the volunteer participated and the degree of his/her participation,” Marina Malyutina said.

    Aleksandra Detkovskaya, a representative of the Roscongress Foundation’s Volunteer and Temporary Personnel Headquarters, clarified that SPbGASU students actively participate in international forums every year and have proven themselves well.

    “This year, we expect up to one hundred SPbGASU students to participate in the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. Based on the results of their work at SPIEF, the volunteers who are among the best will be able to take part in the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok as part of a delegation, whose participants will be provided with travel, accommodation and meals. We also invite students to take part in the St. Petersburg International Legal Forum and the Nevsky International Ecological Congress, which will be held in St. Petersburg in May,” said Alexandra Detkovskaya.

    The St. Petersburg International Economic Forum will be held from June 18 to 21, 2025. Those wishing to become volunteers at this event must register on the congress.ru website by March 31 and submit an application for participation in their personal account. Volunteer training is scheduled for the period from April 7 to 16, with exams taking place from April 22 to 26. Trainings and other preparatory events will be held in June.

    Irina Peretokin, a second-year student at the construction faculty of SPbGASU, joined the volunteer movement immediately after entering the university and took part in many university events and the all-Russian youth festival “Student Spring”. And when she learned about the recruitment of volunteers for the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum last year, she immediately applied.

    “Participation in the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum seemed like an interesting volunteer experience and a good opportunity to expand connections with like-minded people. Because there are many experienced volunteers at events of this level. In addition, I wanted to improve my personal qualities: stress resistance, communication skills, composure, responsibility, punctuality. The forum really provided an excellent opportunity for personal development. Working according to a certain regulation not only disciplines, but also teaches how to act and communicate competently in any situation, including in a foreign language. This is also an opportunity to improve my business English skills in the field of economics,” explained Irina Peretokin.

    Last year, the student got her first experience working at the forum in the “Umbrella Provision” block: the weather was rainy, umbrellas were needed by many, and they were issued only to certain categories. Irina coped with the task, avoiding conflict situations. She admits that this turned out to be a good training in stress resistance, experience in multitasking and practicing communication skills. “This year, I plan to prepare for the exams even better in order to gain experience in other blocks. I want to get into navigation to coordinate guests,” Irina Peretokin summed up.

    Deputy Head of the Youth Policy Department of SPbGASU Ekaterina Kovalenko added that participation in international forums is also a great opportunity to personally see the country’s top officials and large companies, successful people known in various fields, and receive valuable gifts from the organizers.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Double – morning and evening – visibility of Venus from March 17 to 25

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Novosibirsk State University – Novosibirsk State University – The planet that people have observed since ancient times, leaving evidence both in written sources and in earlier petroglyphs, is, of course, one of the most noticeable and bright planets in the sky – Venus.

    Different peoples called it by different names, and among other names, the most commonly used were the Morning Star and the Evening Star, because sometimes this special planet can be observed both in the morning and in the evening.

    This year we will have the opportunity to see Venus both in the morning and in the evening from March 17 to 25 in central Russia: Moscow, Nizhny Novgorod, Kazan, Yekaterinburg, Novosibirsk and Krasnoyarsk. This visibility of the planet is called “double visibility” and is possible during inferior conjunctions of Venus, that is, when the planet is between the Earth and the Sun at the same ecliptic longitude. At this moment, these space objects are located close to each other on the celestial sphere like a “parade of planets”. There are two possible options: Venus is located in the sky above the Sun or below, since the planet’s orbit has an inclination to the ecliptic of 3.4°. If Venus is located above the Sun, it sets behind the horizon later than the Sun and is visible in the evening. But on these same days, it also rises before the Sun, when it is still relatively dark, and can be seen early in the morning. This is a simple explanation of “double visibility”.

    A more complex explanation, understandable to amateur astronomers, is given by Mikhail Maslov, an engineer at the Vega observatory at NSU:

    — This possibility arises because Venus is visually noticeably higher than the ecliptic — the line in the sky that is the projection of the plane of the Earth’s orbit. This position results in the inferior conjunction of Venus passing as if “above the Sun” from the position of an observer on Earth, and the elongation of the planet does not decrease to near-zero marks. Due to this, Venus rises above the horizon before the Sun, which creates a certain morning period of visibility, and on the same day sets after the Sun, which also creates evening visibility. Thus, during the day, Venus can be seen both in the morning and in the evening.

    It is worth noting that this visibility is quite poor, since Venus during the conjunction with the Sun is still quite close to it in the sky, but interested observers can, nevertheless, try to record such a situation by observing Venus in the morning and evening, taking the necessary precautions due to the presence of the bright Sun at a small angular distance.

    Venus will be visible in the evening just after sunset, low above the western horizon, and in the morning just before sunrise above the eastern horizon. These conditions repeat every 8 years. After March 25, we will be able to see Venus only in the mornings.

    With a good, even amateur telescope, in the period from March 17 to 25, both “owls” in the evenings and “larks” in the mornings will be able to try to see both the changes in the phases of Venus and the “horns” of Venus. The tips of the “horns” are precisely the signs of the atmosphere of Venus, which is very dense relative to the atmosphere of the Earth.

    On March 20, the vernal equinox will occur, when the length of day and night will be equal and the length of daylight hours will begin to increase. On the days of the vernal and autumnal equinoxes, the Sun is located strictly perpendicular to the Earth’s equator, and at this moment both hemispheres of the planet are illuminated equally, the time of daylight becomes equal to the time of night.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Scientists present new method for working with unbalanced data

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: State University Higher School of Economics – State University Higher School of Economics –

    Specialists Faculty of Computer Science HSE and Sber’s Artificial Intelligence Lab have developed a geometric method for data expansion — Simplicial SMOTE. Tests on different data sets have shown that it significantly improves the quality of AI work. The method is especially useful in situations where rare cases are very important, for example, in the fight against fraud or in the diagnosis of rare diseases. Research results available in the open archive Arxiv.org and will be presented at the International Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (KDD) in Toronto in summer 2025.

    The problem of imbalanced data is becoming increasingly important in various fields, including banking and medicine. Traditional methods – random duplication or global sampling – often produce low-quality samples or poorly model rare class data.

    The new method proposed by scientists from the Higher School of Economics and Sberbank — Simplicial SMOTE (Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique) — solves these problems: it provides more accurate modeling of complex topological data structures and increases the quality of classifiers on unbalanced data sets.

    It helps to create new examples of a rare class using information from several close examples (“simplex”), and not just from two close points, as in the original version of SMOTE and its well-known analogues. This allows for a better understanding of the data and improves the work of AI. The method helps improve the training of artificial intelligence on imbalanced data, that is, in situations where there are many examples of one class (for example, normal transactions), but few examples of another (for example, fraud).

    The researchers have experimentally demonstrated on a large number of test datasets that the proposed approach significantly improves the quality metrics (F1 measure, Matthews correlation coefficient) of both the basic SMOTE and its modifications. In particular, an improvement was recorded for gradient boosting, a classifier often used in practice.

    “Our method is especially effective in tasks where unbalanced data is common and where the rare class is more significant. Banks can use Simplicial SMOTE to better detect fraud, and medical centers to diagnose rare diseases,” comments one of the authors of the article, Andrey Savchenko, a leading researcher. Laboratories of theoretical foundations of artificial intelligence models Institute of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Sciences Faculty of Computer Science, National Research University Higher School of Economics.

    The new method can be integrated into existing oversampling algorithms (Borderline-SMOTE, Safe-level-SMOTE, and ADASYN), increasing their accuracy without significantly increasing computational complexity. The researchers believe that the developed approach can contribute to the development of more accurate and reliable machine learning models and, therefore, to improved analytics.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Polytechnic University held the first conference on systems engineering

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    Source: Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University – Peter the Great St Petersburg Polytechnic University –

    The 1st All-Russian scientific and practical conference “Modern approaches in system engineering and digital modeling of complex production systems” (SEDM-2025) was held in the Research Building of the Polytechnic University. The event was organized by the laboratories “Industrial systems of streaming data processing” and “Digital modeling of industrial systems” of the Advanced Engineering School of SPbPU “Digital Engineering” together with the industrial partner of the SPbPU PISh, the company “Tetracube”.

    The conference was dedicated to systems engineering as a methodological approach to the implementation of complex projects in various industries.

    Systems engineering is a highly relevant methodological direction in the technological landscape of Russia and the world. It allows implementing complex multi-component projects both for solving frontier engineering problems in the high-tech industry and in other industries – economics, medicine or education. The methodology of systems engineering is universal: it is based on the assessment of all factors, requirements and restrictions that affect the development of the project, and is also a field for the application and development of advanced digital technologies, such as artificial intelligence or mathematical modeling, – noted the chairperson of the conference program committee, head of the Laboratory of PSPOD PISh SPbPU Marina Bolsunovskaya.

    The scientific partners of the conference were the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, Lomonosov Moscow State University, Kazan Federal University, Ivanovo State Polytechnic University and others. The event was supported as industrial partners by the Engineering Center for Textile and Light Industry, the North-West Scientific Center for Hygiene and Public Health of Rospotrebnadzor, Kola MMC, Viziumtex, Olvia and Amdor companies.

    SEDM-2025 participants presented scientific research and practical solutions in the field of design, analysis, forecasting and optimization of complex systems in the economy, industry, transport, medicine, social sphere and education. The event attracted more than 200 speakers and listeners – research scientists and representatives of commercial companies and government organizations.

    The conference consisted of scientific and practical parts. It was addressed both to “theorists” – specialists who study and develop the methodology of systems engineering, and to practitioners – project managers who use the method of systems engineering to solve specific applied problems at their enterprises.

    The presentations were made by recognized experts in the field of studying and implementing approaches to system engineering and digital modeling, theorists and practitioners, as well as students and postgraduates who have chosen system engineering as the direction of their scientific and professional development. For young researchers, the conference became an excellent opportunity to present their research projects to experts, learn their opinions and discuss the practical application of the results.

    The plenary session reports presented the main areas of research and development, which were then discussed in more detail in separate sections.

    The plenary session was opened by Marina Bolsunovskaya. After welcoming remarks, she spoke about the development of the system engineering methodology using practical examples of the PSPOD Laboratory projects. The speaker noted possible directions for the development of the method and the specifics of its use in implementing complex projects at the enterprises of the laboratory’s industrial partners.

    Marina Vladimirovna noted that the requests of enterprises now concern the development of optimization models to identify hidden patterns and develop specific methods for eliminating anomalies. For many customer enterprises, there are no ready-made solutions, so the development of libraries of standard solutions that will allow companies to immediately offer possible solutions for data analysis seems promising.

    Elena Tishchenko, Advisor on Digital Economy to the Dean of the Faculty of Economics at Lomonosov Moscow State University, presented a theoretical report on the method of model-based system engineering (Model Based System Engineering) for synthesizing multi-level economic models. The method involves the widespread use of engineering descriptions of objects in the form of models and their platforms in the economy for analyzing complex economic systems.

    Alexey Gintsyak, Head of the Laboratory of Digital Modeling of Industrial Systems at the St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, spoke about the development of a set of tools for generating schedules in production systems using a multi-agent approach. The work is being carried out with the support of the Russian Science Foundation in 2025-2026. The speaker defined multi-agent systems, highlighted the capabilities and features of the multi-agent approach to the applied task of generating production schedules, and revealed the complexity of generating schedules in a multi-agent environment. In conclusion, Alexey Gintsyak noted that taking multi-agency into account allows for obtaining modeling results that are much more adequate to reality.

    The report by the head of the laboratory “System Dynamics” Angi Skhvediani was devoted to the application of methods of systems engineering in agriculture. He spoke about the current work on the platform for automatic prediction of the sorption properties of biochar obtained as a result of processing plant waste of the agro-industrial complex. The project includes the development of a database and a program for the analysis and prediction of the sorption properties of waste using machine learning methods, the development of a recommendation system for enterprises and scientists in terms of selecting optimal technological modes of waste processing to obtain functional materials with the best properties.

    Associate Professor of the Higher School of Transport of the Institute of Metallurgical Engineering and Technology Dmitry Plotnikov touched upon the topic of digital modeling in the transport industry. The speaker listed interdisciplinary tasks in the development of unmanned ground transport and noted that digital models in the creation of transport systems and processes can be used as a means of supporting decision-making in the design of the life cycle of a vehicle and transport systems in general, as well as an element of the finished product that determines its operational properties. The speaker shared the experience of creating an unmanned car at the Polytechnic University and the complex tasks that the development team faces.

    The conference became a platform for exchanging experience in the field of systems engineering in the transport industry, where there was a place for both experienced professionals and young scientists. Interesting works on the use of simulation modeling for effective traffic management were presented. The reports on the creation of intelligent transport systems deserved special attention, – the speaker noted.

    The head of the control and audit department of the enterprise “Gorelektrotrans” Elena Ezhelina made a report on the development of a new model for managing the enterprise of ground urban electric transport for the automation and optimization of its work. One of the first steps in this direction, Elena Aleksandrovna believes, could be the automation of the management of the daily cycle of the enterprise’s work, which will require the creation of a single dispatch service.

    Deputy Head of the Traffic Safety Service of Gorelektrotrans Alexey Vishensky spoke about his model for distributing tram and trolleybus drivers on city passenger transportation routes. The model is aimed at ensuring the required volume of transport services while complying with legal requirements. The number of drivers is calculated taking into account the design capacity of the fleet, working time fund, work schedules, vacations, knowledge of routes and other factors.

    Anastasia Gorbach, an engineer at Radioavionika JSC, presented an analysis of technologies for implementing artificial intelligence in the process of spelling and punctuation checking using a systems approach. Traditional verification methods based on dictionaries and grammar rules are not effective enough for complex language structures. Using AI to check spelling and punctuation is part of a wider range of technologies that can be applied in the development and optimization of complex technical systems to automate and optimize documentation and communication within the system.

    The most popular sections among the participants were on systems engineering in the field of economics and on digital modeling in industry and related industries. More than 40 reports were submitted for some sessions.

    Teachers and students from various departments of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic Institute, such as the Higher School of Computer Technologies and Information Systems of the IKNK, the Higher School of Project Activity and Innovations in Industry and the Higher School of Transport of the IMMIT SPbPU, the Higher School of Engineering and Economics, the Higher School of Business Engineering and the Laboratory of System Dynamics of the IPMET SPbPU, took an active part in organizing and holding the conference.

    Students of the master’s program of the St. Petersburg Polytechnical University “Systems Engineering and Digital Modeling in High-Tech Industries” presented their developments in the field of systems engineering at the conference.

    The conference was organized for the first time and, it must be said, exceeded our expectations. We saw great interest in the methodology of systems engineering from industrial partners and university researchers – teachers, researchers, students and postgraduates. Next year, we plan to expand the conference topics. In particular, there will be a hybrid modeling section, entirely dedicated to this promising approach within the framework of systems engineering, which allows combining classical analytics and artificial intelligence technologies, – noted Marina Bolsunovskaya.

    Based on the results of the conference, a collection of papers will be published with a DOI and ISBN assigned, and full-text article-by-article placement in the Russian Science Citation Index.

    A systematic approach to developing corporate standards allows not only to structure knowledge, but also to form working mechanisms for training specialists in demand. Interaction with experts and project methodology ensure a high level of development of each aspect, – noted Dmitry Tikhonov, Vice-Rector for Additional and Pre-University Education at SPbPU.

    Practice-oriented learning

    Particular attention is paid to organizing systemic interaction between college teachers and Gazprom Neft representatives. Current employees of the company conduct seminars within the framework of face-to-face modules, and also interact with participants in the formats of direct and inverted internships: they receive teachers at enterprises and go to colleges.

    During the implementation of the program, it is important for us to create conditions for the integration of the College League teachers into the Gazprom Neft educational ecosystem and the development of a sustainable system of communications between the college and the customer enterprise on issues of updating educational programs, organizing internships, and exchanging professional expertise, said Ekaterina Solovyova, Head of Development of the Internal Coaching and Mentoring System at the Gazprom Neft Corporate University.

    The Role of the Gazprom Neft Corporate University

    The corporate university acts as the main customer of the program, actively participating in its development and implementation. It provides methodological support and attracts experts to integrate corporate practices into the educational process.

    The Energy to Train program is one of the elements of systematic work with partner colleges to improve the personnel security of the Gazprom Neft group of companies. It is important for us that the educational experience that students receive at the college contributes to their seamless transition to our enterprises, said Bulat Zaripov, Vice-Rector of the Gazprom Neft Corporate University.

    Expected results

    The program not only allows to bring together the educational programs of secondary vocational education with the needs of the enterprise, but also serves as a platform for building a constructive dialogue between the educational institution and the industrial partner. Participants in the educational process form mutual agreements on the exchange of best practices in matters of personnel training and development, building an internship system, and equipping training grounds.

    Responding to market challenges

    “Energy to teach” is a response to modern challenges of the secondary vocational education system and industry. Improving teaching skills directly affects the quality of students’ training, and network interaction between the academic environment and business contributes to the formation of highly qualified personnel.

    Teachers form future specialists, passing on not only knowledge but also professional values. Our task is to create conditions in which they can master new methods, adapt educational programs and effectively cooperate with business, – emphasized the program curator, head of the Directorate of Continuing Education and Industry Partnership of SPbPU Ivan Kurta.

    It should be added that the League of Colleges is one of the largest communities in the field of secondary vocational education, created on the initiative of Gazprom Neft. It unites 20 colleges in 10 regions, including Moscow, St. Petersburg, Tyumen, Omsk, Khanty-Mansiysk, Sochi and other large cities of the Russian Federation, as well as one college from Uzbekistan.

    March 15, 2025 marks the 95th anniversary of the birth of the Soviet and Russian physicist, academician, Nobel Prize laureate Zhores Ivanovich Alferov. On the eve of the anniversary date, SPbPU employees laid flowers at the memorial plaque of the outstanding scientist, who worked at the Polytechnic University for almost 30 years.

    “We remember Zhores Ivanovich as a cheerful person who set ambitious goals for himself and achieved them,” said Vitaly Sergeev, First Vice-Rector of SPbPU, at the beginning of the ceremony. “He did a lot for the Polytechnic University, an entire direction within the Polytechnic was created thanks to Zhores Ivanovich, a huge thank you to him for this and bright memory.”

    “For me, Zhores Ivanovich was at first an unattainable star, but then he turned out to be very simple and humane in communication,” shared his memories Vladimir Glukhov, advisor to the rector’s office of SPbPU. “I would like to emphasize that the physics and technology faculty he founded was unusual: there were four departments, and each was headed by an academician. And 80 percent of the teachers were members of the Academy of Sciences. And on the basis of this team, the St. Petersburg Academic University was created. As long as we live, we will remember Zhores Ivanovich Alferov.”

    “Zhores Ivanovich was distinguished by a very warm attitude towards students,” added Nikolai Ivanov, acting director of the Physics and Mechanics Institute of SPbPU. “Many departments of the Physics and Engineering Faculty that he created are now in PhysMech. And current teachers who studied with Zhores Ivanovich Alferov say that he had an exceptionally kind attitude towards students. It would seem that the director, an academician, a very busy person, but he found time to talk for a long time with his students and postgraduates.”

    Professors of the Higher School of Fundamental Physics Research Nikita Averkiev and Vadim Korablyov also spoke at the ceremony, noting Zhores Alferov’s contribution to the training of scientific personnel and the development of international relations.

    Thanks to the inventions of Zhores Alferov and his students, such familiar things as lasers, semiconductors, LEDs, and fiber-optic networks became available to humanity. His discoveries became the basis for the creation of modern electronic devices, including mobile phones, CD players, fiber-optic communications, and much more. Alferov made a significant contribution to the development of electronics and digital technologies.

    One of Alferov’s outstanding discoveries is the creation of heterojunctions in semiconductors. These are microstructures in which two or more semiconductors with different chemical compositions are brought into contact. In the 1960s, scientists understood what fantastic prospects the implementation of the idea of semiconductor devices based on heterostructures opened up. The main problem, which could not be solved for a long time, was to select semiconductors ideally suited for this. Alferov’s merit lies precisely in the fact that he was the first to succeed in doing this.

    In 1967, he and his colleagues created heterostructures with the required properties, and in 1970, the first semiconductor heterolaser operating in continuous mode at room temperature. In 1972, Alferov was awarded the highest scientific award of the USSR – the Lenin Prize, and in the same year he became a corresponding member of the USSR Academy of Sciences. And in 1979, he was elected an academician, this happened on his birthday, March 15. In 2000, Alferov’s contribution was also recognized by the highest world scientific award – the Nobel Prize. The scientist received it for the development of semiconductor heterostructures and the creation of fast opto- and microelectronic components.

    Zhores Alferov had scientific intuition and was one of the first to appreciate the prospects for the development of quantum dots. His work on heterostructure lasers was continued in the development of quantum dot lasers.

    Alferov’s legacy included not only his outstanding scientific works, but also a school for training scientific personnel. In 1988, he created the Physics and Technology Department at the Leningrad Polytechnic Institute. Its graduates had encyclopedic knowledge in the field of physics and practical skills in working with modern measuring equipment. The department consisted of four departments: plasma physics, space research, solid-state microelectronics, and solid-state physics. In 2015, the department became part of the Institute of Physics, Nanotechnology, and Telecommunications of SPbPU (now the Institute of Electronics and Telecommunications – Ed.), and Alferov became its scientific director.

    Zhores Ivanovich understood that the development of science and the success of its practical use are impossible without an effective system for training scientific and pedagogical personnel in universities. That is why, despite his enormous workload, he agreed to be the chairman of the Scientific and Methodological Council for Physics at the Ministry of Education and Science. His name attracted many famous scientists, leaders and organizers of higher education to work at the NMS. Current issues of teaching physics were discussed at the meetings of the Presidium of the NMS.

    Zhores Ivanovich was not only an outstanding scientist, but also a wonderful storyteller and loved to cite real-life stories in his reports and official speeches, and he always did so with great humor. Many stories are collected in the book “Alferov Gate”, compiled by Arkady Sosnov. For Zhores Ivanovich’s 95th birthday, the Polytechnic University reissued this book in a new edition.

    On March 17, 2020, in memory of Academician Zhores Alferov and on the 90th anniversary of his birth, a memorial plaque was unveiled on the Main Building of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University.

    The memory of the outstanding scientist is also perpetuated by the creation of the St. Petersburg branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences on his initiative. This happened in 2023 largely due to the authority and influence of Zhores Ivanovich Alferov. On March 18, the St. Petersburg branch of the RAS will host a ceremonial open meeting dedicated to the 95th anniversary of Academician Zhores Alferov.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: IMF Executive Board Completes the Fifth Review under the Extended Credit Facility Arrangement for Nepal

    Source: IMF – News in Russian

    March 14, 2025

    • The IMF Executive Board completed the fifth review under the Extended Credit Facility (ECF) Arrangement for Nepal, providing the country with access to SDR 31.4 million (about US$ 41.8 million).
    • Nepal has made tangible progress in implementing economic reforms under the program, despite a challenging political environment and disruptions caused by the September 2024 floods.
    • The growth recovery is expected to continue in FY2024/25, supported by increased capital spending including on reconstruction, an accommodative monetary policy stance, and additional hydropower generation.

    Washington, DC: On March 12, 2025, the Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) completed the fifth review under the four‑year Extended Credit Facility (ECF) for Nepal, allowing the authorities to withdraw the equivalent of SDR 31.4 million (about US$ 41.8 million) under the ECF. This brings total disbursements under the ECF for budget support thus far to SDR 219.7 million (about US$ 289.1 million).

    The ECF arrangement for Nepal was approved by the Executive Board on January 12, 2022 (see Press Release No. 22/6) for SDR 282.4 million (180 percent of quota). Nepal has made tangible progress in implementing reforms under the program, which has supported early signs of economic recovery while preserving macroeconomic and financial stability and protecting the vulnerable.

    The economy continues to face challenges with subdued domestic demand. Economic activity is expected to pick up moderately in FY2024/25 on account of disruptions caused by the September 2024 floods. Growth is expected to reach 4.2 percent in FY2024/25, supported by a planned increase in capital spending including on reconstruction, an accommodative monetary policy stance, and additional hydropower generation. Post-flood supply-side pressures are expected to be short-lived, and average inflation is projected to remain close to the Nepal Rastra Bank’s target of about 5 percent. Efforts to mobilize revenues will support development spending and fiscal sustainability. The outlook is subject to important downside risks including those related to possible under-execution of capital spending, financial-sector vulnerabilities, and political fragility.

    Following the Executive Board discussion, Mr. Bo Li, Deputy Managing Director, made the following statement:

    “Executive Directors welcomed the continued recovery and the broadly adequate performance under the program, acknowledging the challenges posed by political uncertainty and recent flood-related disruptions. They noted that while the outlook remains broadly favorable, it is subject to downside risks. Accordingly, Directors encouraged continued prudent policies to safeguard macroeconomic stability and steadfast implementation of structural reforms to foster sustainable and inclusive growth. Fund capacity development will also be important to achieve program objectives.

    “Directors recommended continued gradual, growth-friendly fiscal consolidation to stabilize debt. Noting the need to mobilize revenue to support higher capital spending and protect the vulnerable, Directors welcomed the newly adopted Domestic Revenue Mobilization Strategy. They also underscored the need to strengthen public investment management to enhance capital spending execution. Further advancing fiscal transparency would help to contain fiscal risks and strengthen fiscal sustainability. Directors emphasized the importance of supporting the most vulnerable including through expanding child grants.

    “Directors agreed that monetary policy should remain cautious and data-driven to preserve price and external stability. They highlighted the importance of amending the Nepal Rastra Bank Act to strengthen its governance, independence and accountability.

    “Directors underscored that increasing financial sector vulnerabilities warrant a proactive approach. They encouraged steps to further align financial sector regulations with international standards, conduct the planned Loan Portfolio Review, and develop a comprehensive strategy to address problematic savings and credit cooperatives. Noting Nepal’s recent FATF grey listing, Directors stressed the urgency of strengthening the AML/CFT framework through reforms to enhance legal, regulatory, and supervisory frameworks.

    “Directors called for ambitious structural reforms to support more sustainable and inclusive growth. They recommended efforts to reduce the high cost of doing business, enhance the investment climate, improve governance, and strengthen anticorruption institutions. Nepal’s high vulnerability to natural disasters underscores the importance of enhancing resilience to climate shocks.”

    In the Northwestern Federal District, the resettlement of people from houses unfit for habitation continues.

    In the Northwestern Federal District, people are being resettled from uninhabitable buildings. Vladimir Putin set the task of reducing the emergency housing stock and improving the living conditions of people living there for the Russian construction industry. Since 2019, when the implementation of the national project “Housing and Urban Environment” began, the subjects of the Northwestern Federal District have resettled 1.5 million square meters of housing recognized as uninhabitable, Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin reported.

    “Resettlement of emergency housing is one of the tasks that the Government keeps under special control. We are working on solving this problem together with the regions. Under the national project “Housing and Urban Environment”, almost 84 thousand citizens have been resettled from emergency housing in the district to date. The unsuitable housing stock has been reduced by 1.5 million square meters. The resettlement program not only helps improve the quality of life of thousands of Russians, but also contributes to the renewal of urban development and the creation of a comfortable urban environment. Since 2025, these tasks have been solved within the framework of the new national project “Infrastructure for Life”, – said the Deputy Prime Minister.

    According to Marat Khusnullin, in the Northwestern Federal District, the largest number of residents moved from dilapidated housing in the Arkhangelsk Region – 26.1 thousand people, the Leningrad Region – 12.7 thousand people, the Komi Republic – 10.4 thousand people, the Republic of Karelia – 9.4 thousand people and the Vologda Region – 7.1 thousand people.

    The General Director of the Territorial Development Fund, Ilshat Shagiakhmetov, noted that many regions are working ahead of schedule, completing assigned tasks in a shorter time frame.

    “In addition, it has already become a good tradition that regions connect their mechanisms to solve the problem of resettling emergency housing, create their own resettlement programs. Thus, the subjects of the Northwestern Federal District, at the expense of their budgets, resettled 13.2 thousand people out of the total number. Here we can note the Komi Republic, where the region independently resettled 3.8 thousand people, and the Arkhangelsk Region, where, thanks to the initiative of the subject, almost 3 thousand citizens improved their housing conditions,” said the head of the Territorial Development Fund.

    The program for resettling citizens from emergency housing stock is supervised by the Russian Ministry of Construction. Its operator is the Territorial Development Fund.

    March 6, 2025

    Moscow Exchange held a round table dedicated to equal career opportunities in public Russian companies.

    Representatives of Russian business, consultants and experts in the field of sustainable development and stock exchange infrastructure discussed current issues and best practices of Russian companies aimed at ensuring equal career opportunities, and also assessed their contribution to popularizing the concept of sustainable development in the financial market.

    As part of the event, Moscow Exchange presented the results of a study on the disclosure of non-financial information by 65 issuers – companies from the first and second levels of the Moscow Exchange quotation list that issued non-financial reports for 2023. According to the results of the study, 94% of companies disclose general information about the gender and age of employees, gender composition depending on the job level – 82%, but only 51% of issuers disclosed information on initiatives in the field of equal opportunities between men and women.

    The event ended with the traditional ringing of the stock exchange bell, which is held in support of international initiatives to ensure equal career opportunities. These days, stock exchanges around the world demonstrate their commitment to these initiatives and draw attention to current issues in this area.

    Elena Kuritsyna, Senior Managing Director for Issuer and Government Relations at Moscow Exchange:

    “Every year in March, we hold a ceremonial ringing of the stock exchange bell in support of international initiatives to ensure equal career opportunities. This is one of the fundamental principles of the long-term sustainable development program, and the best practices of Russian companies can serve as a starting point for its popularization. Moreover, equal opportunities are a concept that affects each of us, daily influencing our career paths in business, science, sports and other areas of life. In today’s conditions, it is difficult to overestimate the importance of a balanced approach to recruitment and rewarding employees. Its widespread application can have a positive effect on the entire economy and society.”

    Moscow Exchange is doing a lot of work with market participants in the field of sustainable development and is demonstrating by its own example the impact of implementing sustainable development principles. In 2025 Moscow Exchange included in updated ESG ranking Russian financial organizations, compiled by the National Rating Agency (NRA). Based on the degree of implementation of sustainable development principles in its strategic and operational activities, the exchange is included in the first, highest group of the ranking.

    Moscow Exchange as an issuer adheres to the best practices in the field of non-financial reporting disclosure. In 2024, the fifth sustainability report, and for the first time a climate report has been prepared. The company has environmental policy, which defines the basic principles, objectives and priorities of the exchange’s activities in the field of environmental protection and nature management.

    In January 2025, Moscow Exchange presented an updated version of the guide for issuers “How to comply with best sustainability practices”.

    The value of assets under management by the management company in 2024 increased to 26.3 trillion rubles, which is 25.8% more than the value at the end of the previous year.

    The main increase in funds was provided by closed-end mutual investment funds (ZPIF). The driver of this market segment in the fourth quarter was individual ZPIFs, and interest in real estate funds also remained.

    In the retail segment, almost the entire inflow of funds came from money market exchange-traded funds. Their popularity grew throughout the year, and in the fourth quarter it reached its peak: the net inflow of funds was the highest since the existence of such funds (452 billion rubles). The average weighted return of ruble exchange-traded money market mutual funds for 2024 was 18.1%.

  • MIL-OSI Russia: Alexander Novak discussed the development of a national model of target conditions for doing business with representatives of federal authorities, regions and business associations

    Translartion. Region: Russians Fedetion –

    March 7, 2025

    Alexander Novak, together with Deputy Chief of Staff of the Presidential Executive Office of Russia Maxim Oreshkin, held a meeting on the development of a national model of target conditions for doing business.

    “The President has set national development goals, and one of the key tasks is to ensure that the economy grows at a rate higher than the world average and maintain fourth place in the world in terms of purchasing power parity. To do this, we need to achieve sustainable growth rates and increase the volume of investment in fixed assets by 60%. One of the areas of work to achieve these indicators is the constant improvement of the investment climate. On the instructions of the President, the Ministry of Economic Development, together with the Agency for Strategic Initiatives, is developing a national model of target conditions for doing business,” said Alexander Novak.

    The national model includes priority areas and target indicators at the federal and regional levels to simplify the launch and operation of a business in Russia.

    “The Government is currently developing a plan for structural changes in the Russian economy in order to remove restrictions that prevent rapid growth. Target conditions for doing business are one of the key elements of this work. Our task is to reduce losses, unnecessary steps and ineffective stages along the investment process,” said Maxim Oreshkin.

    “The goal of the national model is to solve specific problems of improving the business climate through reforms that businesses need. To measure changes, it is necessary to develop target indicators of efficiency at the federal and regional levels. That is, to determine the criteria for assessing the activities of government bodies in working with businesses. At all stages – from registering a legal entity to entering the international market,” said Maxim Reshetnikov, head of the Ministry of Economic Development.

    The Minister noted that the formation and implementation of the national model play a key role in the plan of measures for structural changes in the economy until 2030. The implementation of the model will affect not only the provision of a favorable institutional environment and improvement of the business climate, but also the solution of other strategic tasks. For example, stimulating investment, providing financial resources for economic growth, and developing the labor market.

    11 working groups headed by representatives of companies and government bodies are engaged in identifying procedural and process-related difficulties in doing business at various stages of the life cycle of enterprises. The first results have shown that there are both long-standing issues and promising areas for reform.

    For example, these are bankruptcy and competition laws, out-of-court settlement mechanisms, issues of labor market flexibility, diversification of business financing sources, and improvement of law enforcement practices in energy infrastructure.

    Svetlana Chupsheva, Director General of the Agency for Strategic Initiatives, reported on regional indicators of the national model of target conditions for doing business. She focused on the methodology for determining and monitoring target indicators at the regional level.

    “At the regional level, it is planned to use 29 key indicators of the National Investment Climate Rating. The average results of 20 leading regions were taken as benchmarks by 2027, and the results of the leading five by 2030. We plan to approve them at the next meeting of the State Council Commission on Investments. Then, together with the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia and the regions, we will develop action plans to achieve the set goals,” the head of ASI said.

    Federal indicators will be reflected in regional ones for mandatory implementation at the local level. Thus, the rating will remain a tool for measuring the state of the investment climate. And the model will determine where and what problems need to be solved in order to improve the conditions for business operations.

    Representatives of regions, business associations and federal agencies also took part in the meeting.

    On March 6-7, 2025, a meeting of the Council for the consideration of issues and coordination of activities of advanced engineering schools was held, in which, together with other 20 teams, the team of the PIS “RosGeoTech” took part, headed by the rector of the Grozny State Oil Technological University named after Academician M.D. Millionshchikov Magomed Mintsaev and the rector of the State University of Management Vladimir Stroev.

    Over the course of two days, participants in the second wave of selection for the Advanced Engineering Schools project shared the results achieved in 2024. Following the meeting and assessment of the work done, the Council, co-chaired by the Minister of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation Valery Falkov and the head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia Anton Alikhanov, will compile a rating of engineering schools and determine the amount of state support within the framework of the project for 2025.

    The head of the Ministry of Education and Science recalled that universities face two key tasks: – to propose changes in engineering education, focusing on improving its quality; – to attract an industrial partner who will put forward a request for the training of highly qualified personnel and the transformation of education, and will also involve teachers and students in solving real engineering problems aimed at ensuring technological leadership.

    The advanced engineering school “RosGeoTech” is called upon to become a recognized industry center of competence in technologies for the cost-effective exploitation of oil fields and wells at the final stage of development by building a first-class ecosystem for training engineers, as well as to create a new promising market based on the integrated use of geothermal fields and oil fields at the final stage of development.

    In 2024/2025, 52 students are studying at the RosGeoTech PIS (20 undergraduate, 10 master’s, 22 specialist). Six new educational programs have been developed. The number of graduates in additional professional education programs is 80 people.

    “Graduates of the RosGeoTech PIS of the M.D. Millionshchikov GGNTU have unique industry competencies and skills that are formed thanks to advanced teaching methods, practical knowledge obtained from leading specialists of industrial partners during the implementation of educational programs, practical training and internships in the leading oil companies of the country and the implementation of the final qualifying work as a scientific project for the needs of industrial partners. Graduates of the RosGeoTech PIS will have a qualification commensurate with a year of work experience at the enterprise,” said Magomed Mintsaev, Rector of the M.D. Millionshchikov GGNTU.

    The ABRIS (Autonomous unmanned and robotic innovative systems in oil and gas, energy and construction engineering, as well as in ensuring the safety of facilities in various industries) and GeoMap (Formation of an interactive map of Russia’s geothermal resources) projects are being implemented directly on the basis of the State University of Management.

    “ABRIS is one of the projects that SUM scientists are implementing in the field of artificial intelligence. The project involves creating unmanned systems for monitoring oil and gas facilities and geophysical surveys, as well as an autonomous drone port for servicing UAVs. These developments can be applied in other areas. Other major SUM projects in the field of artificial intelligence include the creation of software and hardware systems and intelligent platform digital solutions in the field of developing agro-industrial technologies of the full life cycle, or, in simpler terms, the “Digital Village”. Cooperation with GGNTU named after M.D. Millionshchikov is of utmost importance for us, because in addition to implementing scientific projects, we are opening new higher education programs and continuing professional education programs for the oil and gas industry, which contribute to the strategic goal of Russia’s development – achieving technological leadership,” said SUM Rector Vladimir Stroyev.

    The key partners of the RosGeoTech Scientific and Educational Institute were PJSC NK Rosneft, JSC Grozneftegaz, JSC Chechenneftekhimprom and others.

    The volume of attracted funding amounted to 120.4 million rubles in the form of a federal subsidy, 221 million rubles as extra-budgetary funding for the school’s activities, and 63.78 million rubles for R&D in the interests of business.

    Today, there are 50 advanced engineering schools in the country, involving more than 250 high-tech companies, including Rostec, Rosatom, Roscosmos, Sibur, Gazprom Neft, KAMAZ, Tatneft and others. Another 30 schools will present the results of their activities for 2024 in April.

    On the instructions of Russian President Vladimir Putin, the project will be scaled up and 100 advanced engineering schools will be created by 2030.
