Roscongress Launches New Format for Work with Expert Community

26 March 2019

A new format for work with the expert community has been set up on the Information and Analytical System of the Roscongress Foundation portal. Its purpose is to promote the knowledge and ideas voiced at the Foundation’s key events.  

The new Expert Opinion section will host opinion columns, interviews and expert opinions on business and cultural agenda issues. In particular, a series of interviews were prepared reflecting the results of Russian Investment Forum 2019, with support from the TV BRICS international network (MKR-Media Holding), covering such matters as project finance, the digital economy, sustainable development of modern cities, longevity and more.

The platform participants are representatives of the scholarly and expert communities, government agencies, business and public associations.  

“Digitalization and modern communications channels are playing an ever increasing role, so we believe it is important  to shape an expert community not only at the venues of multiple events organized by the Roscongress Foundation but also on the Internet”, stressed Chairman of the Board and CEO of the Roscongress Foundation Alexander Stuglev.

Anna Mileikova, General Director of MKR-Media Holding, whose flagship project is TV BRICS, pointed to the significance for the media holding of cooperation with the Roscongress Foundation: “Our goal is to create interesting and relevant content for our spectators in the world’s five largest countries. Our joint section with the Foundation will become useful for our 3.5 billion audience, which includes many prospecting business partners and potential investors. In addition, we are convinced that this strategic cooperation will allow us, together with the Roscongress Foundation, to find a productive approach to holding the keynote summits of SCO and BRICS in Chelyabinsk in 2020.”  

As we reported earlier, for the first time an opportunity to join the Roscongress Foundation’s expert community via the Internet became available to   the participants at the Eastern Economic Forum 2018. They could do so by submitting an application through their personal web office. This experience will be further developed at other Roscongress Foundation events.

Currently, the analytical and expert projects involve 2,500 experts in Russia and abroad, and cooperation has been established with international business partners in 75 countries.

The materials of the Expert Opinion section are available on the official website of the Roscongress Foundation and the TV BRICS international network.
