Pobezhimov Siberian Shipbuilding Plant, Krasnoyarsk Shipbuilding Plant, Krasnoyarsk Ship Repair Plant, Branch of the Yenisei River Shipping Company, Ermolayevskaya Fleet Care and Maintenance Base, Krasnoyarsk Dock Yard, SibirRechTrans etc. The total production volume of the said enterprises comprises 0.5% of the entire industry, with the staff comprising 0.9% of the entire industry.

BUSINESS MODELS OF THE YEAR 2018“New normality” is not only the time for a big change; it is also the time of upcoming opportunities. The important thing is to recognize and not to miss these opportunities. It is not the strongest who survives; it is the most adjustable one, so it is necessary to use the changing situation for the benefit of businesses and, consequently, to accelerate the economic growth of the country. The list of possible growth drivers is not limited to digitalization, implementation of new technologies, entering new markets and adjustment to the changing consumer needs. There are lots of other ways to increase the efficiency and proficiency to be taken into account at the transition point from resource-based economy to the smart and innovative one.What investments will bring the best returns in 2018-2025?

The practice of creating regional project offices, or coordination bodies responsible for planning, implementation and monitoring of project activities for achieving the regional development objectives, is expanding. Transition to a new administration paradigm implies involvement of the expert and academic communities into development and implementation of strategic projects for regional development. Federal initiatives, and, namely, the priority project titled “Higher Education Institutions as Centres for Innovation” are aimed at supporting regional project offices based at universities. Universities are the facilities expected to become the expert centre for administrative decision-making and solving the tasks of innovative, technological, or social development of the region.What are the opportunities in involving universities into the programmes aimed at the development of regional innovative systems (creation of centres for youth innovative creativity, innovative development centres etc.)?How can we reduce the risks and overcome the barriers, preventing efficient communication between the regional authorities and federal universities?What are the best practices for changing basic processes at universities for the creation and development of a regional project office?Industry HR.

They are the concentration area of the natural wealth of the country, corridors for communication and economic connection to the APR. Human capital assets are limited, the demographic recession tendencies have not been eliminated, there is a clear “western drift” in the migration flows and a shortage of large social activity and development centres.

The “user pays principle” is obviously fair, and socially responsible and forward-thinking industrial companies are ready to invest into environmental campaigns. Today’s legislation foresees several forms of compensation for the negative influence on the environment, including charges for negative impact on the environment, compensation of damage, implementation and improvement of new technologies, and environmental actions.It is clear, however, that modernization of production, construction and re-construction of pollution control facilities gives a greater positive effect than various payments, and the task of the state is to stimulate these and similar measures. The companies running environmental campaigns are entitled to a charge discount, but the offsetting mechanism is not yet clearly defined, and de facto the offset is done through the court. At the round table, representatives of businesses, state authorities and environmental organizations will discuss the ways to improve the legislation in order to increase the efficiency of environmental actions in the Russian Federation.What is a convenient and fair offsetting mechanism? How can the negative impact charge discount be calculated?

Even now, the able-bodied population growth is ahead of the creation of new jobs. According to the International Labour Organization, the number of unemployed in the world has reached 201 million people, and in the year 2018 this number is expected to grow by 3 million.At the same time, real earnings of the population are decreasing. The Analytical Centre of the RF Government claims that the share of the “working poor” constitutes 16.8% of all people involved in economy (12.1 million people). The global tendency shows that this category will grow by 5 million people in the year 2018.The discontentment with the salary and work conditions and redundancy of employees forms the tendency of transition from employment to self-employment. On the other hand, under certain conditions these processes may stimulate the development of small businesses, and, consequently, benefit to prehensive solutions in the sphere of employment: what measures should we take not to become the victims of progress?Employment arrangements and business-activities: experience of such growth economies as India, China, Japan.The self-employed: potential entrepreneurs or growing “grey economy”?

That was the start of Russian heating reform.The purpose of the reform is to create stimulate private investment into the industry, in order to increase heat supply efficiency and raise service quality. The new heating energy market model foresees the transition from state-regulated heating tariffs and “expenditures +” method to liberalization of the hearing energy prices for consumers on the basis of long-term contract parameters. For the benefit of the final consumer, heating energy price is limited with the maximum value calculated on the basis of the cost of an alternative energy source construction with the use of the best cutting-edge technologies.Year 2018 is the year of implementation of the model. It is planned to be gradual, starting from some cities, spreading to the rest of the regions.How ready are the regions for the new model, how do they evaluate the prospects of implementing the new legislation in their municipalities?

SciencesRound tableINPLEMENTING THE SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY PLANTransition to the new paradigm of scientific and technological development, caused by accelerated application of the cutting-edge production technologies and new materials, can never happen without qualified scientists and engineers. Comprehensive knowledge-driven projects need both fundamental and applied science, as well as new level of scientific and engineering education; all these elements are interconnected and interdependent. Projects in need for development and modification with regard to “big challenges” strongly depend on the development and preservation of scientific and engineering potential of the human resources.The speed of research is growing every decade; the role of interdisciplinary research gains more importance. Scientific collaborations of dozens or even hundreds of participants do not look unusual any more. Even in theoretic science, researches are carried out by groups of authors. A bright example of such collaboration is the programme of scientific and technological development of agriculture, already implemented in several areas: potato farming, poultry breeding, and sugarbeet farming. These businesses have already built a pattern for a dialogue between academic and university science, as well as industry unions of manufacturers.Today it is important to ensure transfer of scientific achievements into industrial practice. As a rule, an institute finishes its project with a laboratory prototype. It is not capable of setting industrial manufacture, and it is not its duty. This problem cannot be solved separately from businesses. Here is one more peculiarity: investment programmes of large companies are normally long-term oriented. Scientific research programmes are also planned for a long period. It is important to find the right coordination mechanism that would bring some practical results in several years. The scientific organizations of the Federal Agency for Scientific Organizations of the Russian Federation are actively creating comprehensive programmes and research plans intended to unite all related scientific groups and resources for the purpose of solving large scientific tasks.In the future, comprehensive research plans may be developed into comprehensive science and technology programmes to be used as the key tool of the Strategy of Scientific and Technological Development.Such interaction gives start to a better management mechanism for the whole production cycle, from the idea to its implementation. In this mechanism, the state is in charge of financing the fundamental research the businesses would never invest. At the same time, the businesses come to realize that science can bring some really important results.What are the mechanisms of recognizing big challenges and correcting priorities of scientific and technological development in Russia? How should cooperation and joint activity of science and real sector be organized? How can we ensure implementation of new products and technologies on the market? Who acts as a customer for science? How can we ensure the demand for scientific research? What are the peculiarities of transit to digital, intellectual, resource effective energy industry of the 21st century?

Migration of talented school and college graduates, low accessibility of education, poor communication with employers, low functional literacy of the adult population and low involvement into continuous education turn out to be serious barriers, holding back the development of the entities of the Russian Federation.These challenges were responded with the reforms intended to support the human capital in the regions. The core university programme, “Higher Education Institutions as Innovation Centres” priority ptoject, regional standard for HR facilitation of industrial growth, chain of Quantorium technoparks etc. are bright examples of these measures.However, to overcome the said barriers, the governmental policy for regional development needs to come up with some special measures. These solutions can be only developed in the dialogue between the federal and regional authorities, representatives of the real sector and education facilities. This round table suggests to discuss the possible unified infrastructure for the human capital in the region.What does the regional human capital infrastructure consist of? How can we motivate it to develop?How can various bodies contribute to the common task of human capital development?Can continuous education serve as a source for economic and social development of the region?Importance of student career guidance.What are the mechanisms of revealing and retaining talents and leaders in the region?Public-private partnership in the sphere of socioeconomic issues of certain territories and the federation as a whole.Moderated by:Eduard Galazhinsky, Rector, National Research Tomsk State UniversityInvited:Nikita Anisimov, Acting Rector of the Far East Federal University Alexander Auzan, Dean of Economy Department, M.V.

Entrepreneur Service ModelThe problem of uniting all supporting services and facilities for small and medium-sized businesses into a single platform remains acute at the represent time. There are around 700 infrastructural facilities providing a wide range of services to entrepreneurs. It is challenging for a beginner to find a service with certain parameters, to select the most reliable and efficient supplier, to figure out the procedure of getting governmental support. Developing a service model for small and medium-sized businesses, it is necessary to ensure the accessibility of the services for all entrepreneurs on the basis of the well-known “one window” principle.How is the service model implemented in various regions?

The economy of the country as a whole may be digital to the same extent as regional economies. However, in their daily life the regions face a great number of unsolved infrastructural and social problems, as well as shortage of investments into strategic development. On the other hand, growing GDP rate reduces the gap between the GDP per capita of rich countries and that of Russia, creating the risk of getting into the “market middle trap”, as a result of which the volume of resources for solving current problem and responding to long-term challenges keeps decreasing. It is necessary to learn how to overcome the “current problems – digital future” opposition, creating quick-impact technologic solutions in the developed socioeconomic context to bring the regional economy up to the new competition level.What benefits can the digital shift bring to the national and regional economies? How can we learn finding our niches on the global market? How can digital technologies be directed to solve the current problems?

planning in the regions.Our experience proves that the majority of regional strategies is not implemented within the established terms.Federal priorities, economic crises, budget limitations often turn the regional strategy into a purely official document, not used for daily management decision-making.It leads to the loss of connection between strategic and budget planning: state programmes do not achieve of the strategic indicators any more, but are just used for distribution of funds between the industries.Along with that, according to the new socioeconomic development strategy of Russia, it is essential to adjust the work of regional authorities in accordance with the strategic priorities.Regional development strategies need to find a new format and serve as a basis for the implementation of economic potential of each territory.The discussion encompasses the following questions:Can a region formulate development priorities on its own, following the instructions of the federal centre and the budget limitations?How can the resources for the achievement of such strategic objectives be found?How can the strategy be turned into a real management document, and how can it be efficiently used?Moderated by:Mikhail Pryadilnikov, Deputy Head of the Analytical Centre of the Government of the Russian FederationInvited:Anton Alikhanov, Governor of Kaliningrad OblastDmitry

time, Siberian cities have gone through a great transformation. Soviet industrialization changed their economic structure, spatial arrangement, social structure, Siberian cities are in constant competition with the rapidly developing cities of China and other South-East Asian countries.Siberia has great opportunities to accelerate the social and economic development of the cities, to improve the living standards of the population; but they are associated with a number of challenges. Sustainable development is held back by the Soviet industrialization results, that have changed the economic structure, spatial arrangement and social structure of the cities, as well as the competition with Chinese and other Asian cities. International experience shows that large cities and agglomerations become significant growth areas that ensure economic integrity of the territories, comprehensive development of the infrastructure and create supportive environment for the population. Establishment and support of such areas may serve as a new driver for the socioeconomic development of the region. What are the key challenges for the development of Siberian cities and agglomerations? What is the possible model for support and development of urban agglomerations until the year 2035?

Moreover, such approach requires considerable investment into excessive production capacities not connected to the critical industrial transformations instead of finding cooperation partners working on the “open contract production service” model in order to decrease the final product manufacturing costs. As a tool of regional industrial policy, industrial clusters and technoparks concentrate efforts on the “extended” production and technological chains and attract target investors into the regions.How do industrial clusters and technoparks influence the implementation of regional investment and industrial policy? What investment opportunities for business do industrial clusters and technoparks offer? What need for localization of high-tech products and technologies do industrial clusters have?

For instance, on electric energy retail market the consumers have restricted opportunities of making influence on such significant parameters and conditions of energy supplies as prices and supplier selection, and the decrease in prices on the wholesale market does not always cause decrease of the price for the final consumer. These factors create the need for better mechanisms of wholesale and retail markets functioning in order to increase the current competitiveness level.This way, there are the following issues that need to be discussed:What are the main, streamline ways of further market model improvement from the point of view of perfecting the competitive environment?What are the ways to reduce the market access barriers for the final consumer of electric energy?What can be done to decrease the market concentration and to eliminate the restrictions that prevent competitive pricing?What are the main prospective technological prerequisites for increasing competition in electric power industry, as well as within the framework of SmartGrid, Internet Energy technologies and others?Moderated by:Maxim Bystrov, Chairman of the Board, Association Market Council NCOInvited:Igor Artemyev, Head of the Federal Antimonopoly Service of RussiaBoris Ayuev, Chairman of the Board, Siberian Branch of the Unified Energy System of Russia, OJSC Oleg Barkin, Deputy Chairman of the Board, Association Market Council, NCOSergei Belyaev, Director, Scientific and Research Institute for the Development of Competition and Property Relation, FSBEI HE Plekhanov Russian University of EconomicsVasily Kiselev, Director, Association “Energy Consumers Society”Vitaly Korolev, Deputy Head of the Federal Antimonopoly Service of RussiaPavel Livinsky, General Director, Rosseti PJSCNatalia Nevmerzhitskaya, Chairman of the Board, Association “Non-Commercial Partnership of Guaranteed Suppliers and Energy Wholesale Companies”Alexander Novak, Minister of Energy of the Russian FederationMaxim Oreshkin, Minister of Economic Development of the Russian FederationAlexander Pavlyuchenko, General Director, Karana LLCAlexandra Panina, Chairman of the Supervising Council, Association “Council of Energy Producers and Strategic Investors into Electric Energy”Yuri Saakyan, General Director, Chairman of the Academic Board, Institute of Natural Monopoly Problems15:30-16:00COFFEE BREAK16:00-17:30Conference Hall 1Ministry of Health of RussiaNational Research University “Higher School of Economics”Round tableFuture of Health SERVICE and Health SERVICE of the Future: What Can Russia Offer?The rapidly ageing population, growth of chronic diseases, urbanization cause an additional load on the medical infrastructure and require to increase the efficiency of public health services.

The annual compound growth rate constitutes 5.6%, while the global health service market earnings are expected to reach 2.69 trillion USD by the year 2025.We witness redistribution of roles and specialization of regions in certain areas of medicine; it enhances the global competition for qualified medical personnel.Predictably enough, the IT sector of health service is expected to grow faster than others, on the average by 16.1% per annum until the year 2025.With the current organization system, Russian health service needs to increase its resources dramatically to survive in the new geopolitical conditions and to retain its potential.Health service needs new approaches based on the latest achievements of communication technologies and large data corpuses, uniting the elements of forecasting, prevention and automation, making healthcare more efficient and accessible.Where can we find resources to face the modern challenges?How and to what extent does the health service industry need to transform in order to comply with the new requirements by the year 2024?What is the role of new technologies in the existing market paradigm transformation?

Crossing the territory of Russia by land, the railway ensures direct access of Russian and transit cargo to the Far East ports, building communication with the APR and European countries. It is a great opportunity for Russia to implement its transit potential, especially considering the fact that the Trans-Siberian route is much shorter of the similar maritime one. Within the framework of the Trans-Siberian Railway improvement, there are lots of events intended to increase the capacity of the railway transport infrastructure for cargo and passenger trains. The most important campaign for increasing the competitive advantages of the Trans-Siberian is an efficient tariff policy.

In the current situation it is important to select and analyse the projects to be financed from the point of view of feasibility and efficiency, as well as substantiate the selection of the organizational and economic mechanism for the individual financing of each project.Russian financial market players lack the so-called target milestones for the development of project financing as a whole or making up a clear programme of well-coordinated and structured actions of the state and private businesses, real sector companies and the banking system. To set the task of project financing development, one has to clearly define the target and quantitative indicators to be achieved by a certain planned moment; moreover, a programme of measures to be taken by the state authorities, administrative bodies and business structures has to be compiled to assist the achievement of the planned target indicators.The use of innovations in the infrastructure.Application of the best practices of the world companies and the expert community for the implementation of infrastructural projects.What is an infrastructural mortgage?

This is not only about increasing the traditional finance sources of the “greed” investments”, but the opportunity of finding new sources of finance. The development of national mechanisms intended to achieve global goals is impossible without involving all interested parties into the process.The purpose of this discussion is to analyse the problems that hold back the “green” investment financing mechanism as an element of national sustainable development financing strategy.Moderated by: Lyudmila Kabir, Senior Research Fellow, International Finance Centre, FSBI Financial Research InstituteInvited:Mikhail Babenko, Director of the Green Economy Programme, World Wildlife FundKirill Bogomolov, Lead Consultant of International Development Assistance Division, International Financial Relations Department of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian FederationVsevolod Gavrilov, Director of Directorate for Projects in the Sphere of Energy Saving and Nature Use, PJSC SberbankDenis Grigoryev, Head of the Financial Markets Development Department, Central Bank of the Russian FederationVadim Dormidontov, Vice President, JSC GazprombankGeorgy Kekelidze, Chairman of the Board, Non-Commercial Partnership for Renewable Energy Development EUROSOLAR Russian SectionOleg Mukhamedshin, Director for Strategy, UC RUSAL10:00-11:30Conference Hall 6Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian FederationStrategy Partners GroupRound tableIndustrial Revolution IV and Roles of Regions Industrial revolution IV fundamentally transforms modern industry due to the new technological achievements, including digitalization and robotization, artificial intelligence and Internet, new materials and biotechnologies. Thanks to these changes, the industry of developed countries becomes the main source of economic blossom and new jobs again. The leading developed and developing countries are running their own initiatives intended for the development of future industry, and leading foreign regions play an active role in the process.What opportunities does the industrial revolution open for Russia and Russian regions? What are the key lessons we can withdraw from international experience? How should we form the industrial policy at the national and regional levels under the conditions of large-scale technological changes and transformation of the industry branch models? How can companies accelerate the innovative development, increase their productivity and competitive capacity at the global markets?Moderated by:Alexei Prazdnichnykh, Partner, Head of Practice “State and Non-Commercial Sector”, Strategy Partners GroupInvited:Roberto dos Reis Alvarez, Executive Director of the Global Federation of Competitiveness CouncilsIgor Bogachev, General Director, Zyfra LLCAlexander Idrisov, President, Strategy Partners GroupAnastasia Kalinina, Head of Eurasia, World Economic Forum Vasily Osmakov, Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade of the Russian FederationRoman Petrutsa, General Director, Industry Development FundVladimir Tuzov, Strategy Director, SUEK JSCMary Hallward-Driemeier, Senior Economic Adviser, Global BankMaxim Shereykin, General Director, Agency for Technological Development Andrei Sholokhov, General Director, RTS Russia and CIS10:00-11:30Conference Hall 7Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian FederationChamber of Commerce and Industry of the Russian FederationGovernment of Krasnoyarsk RegionRussian Export Centre JSCCentral Siberian Chamber of Commerce and IndustryRound tableDevelopment and Promotion of Export Potential of Siberia (Krasnoyarsk Region) The non-resource export requires consistent work on forming the potential. Today there are some methods for financial and non-financial support of non-resource export. The priorities of the industry branch and the regions have been determined. The subtasks intended to open new markets, expand the range of commodities, diversify the export of commodities and services have been formulated. Among the priority export countries there are: the PRC, EAEU, CIS, Middle East, North Africa, South and South East Asia, Latin America.Traditionally, the industry branches with export potential are: aircraft engineering, railway machinery engineering, automotive industry, power engineering, defence industry, agroindustrial complex and agricultural machine engineering, nuclear industry.But each region has a unique opportunity to participate in international division of labour. It is important to form approaches to the systematic application of export potential development tools and the promotion of it to the domestic and international markets.How can the non-resource export potential of Siberian regions be increased and actualized?How can the infrastructural administrative barriers oppressing the non-resource and non-energy expert be eliminated?How can export support tools efficiency be increased?

When businesses withhold information or provide untruthful data, a lot of energy is spent on solving conflicts instead of finding optimal solutions; instead of uniting efforts of businesses, state and the civil society, confrontation begins. The environmental ratings of the oil, gas and mineral mining sectors demonstrated that the transparency of information is the basis for an efficient dialogue between the three parties and search for the best solutions.Moderated by:Eugeny Schwartz, Director of WWF Russia Environmental PoliciesInvited:Irina Bakhtina, Vice President for Sustainable Development of Businesses and Corporate Relations, UnileverMikhail Kozlov, Head of Directorate for Forest Protection, Federal Agency for Forestry AffairsAlexander Kolotov, Chairman of the Social Chamber of Environment, Civil Assembly of Krasnoyarsk RegionVladimir Koptev-Dvornikov, Co-Chairman, Environmental Chamber of RussiaChris Mawer, Vice President for HSE, British Petroleum RussiaInna Sidorova, Deputy Director of the Department for Industrial, Labour Safety and Environment, PJSC MMC Norilsk Nickel Vladimir Tuzov, Director for Strategy, SUEK JSCBj?rn Kavalkov Halvarsson, Counsellor, Head of Economic and Trade Department, Embassy of Sweden in the Russian FederationVladimir Chasovitin, Acting Minister of Environment and Rational Nature Use of Krasnoyarsk Region10:00-11:30Conference Hall 9Siberian Generating CompanyBrainstormNew Heating Market Model in Action: Perfect Conditions, Opportunities, ResultsJuly 31, 2017, the Federal Law No.279 FZ “On Introduction of Amendments into the Federal Laz “On Heating Supply” and Other Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation for the Improvement of the Heating Supply Relations System” which was the beginning of the heating reform.
