Sukuk is one of the most complex and at the same time sought-after instruments of the Islamic financial market. But the success of the sukuk issue depends not only on the approval of the Sharia council. The key risks lie in the structuring, asset management and correct financial reporting.

Sukuk is one of the most complex and at the same time sought-after instruments of the Islamic financial market. But the success of the sukuk issue depends not only on the approval of the Sharia council. The key risks lie in the structuring, asset management and correct financial reporting. This is where discrepancies between investors' expectations and actual execution most often arise.

AAOIFI— a global developer of standards in the field of Islamic accounting, auditing and management, is conducting a workshop that closes this gap. The format is not lecture-based: from concept to case study.

Participants go through a full cycle: from asset selection and legal design to post-issue management and reporting according to AAOIFI standards. The end-to-end case allows you to face real problems in practice.: what should I do if the asset ceases to generate income, how to disclose information in case of partial early repayment, and how to meet the requirements of the regulator, sharia law, and international standards?

Organizer: Ammoni Stock Company.

The Islamic economy does not start with banks or sukuk. It begins with the prohibition of waste. Do not waste too much, do not overspend resources, do not take more from the earth than it can give. Today, this principle is becoming not only an ethical norm, but also a strict economic necessity.

The Ammonium company, a producer of mineral fertilizers, gathers chemists, agrarians, IT developers and Islamic financiers at one table. What for? Because land is no longer just an asset. It becomes a long-term investment, where the rules of the game are dictated not by speculation, but by real yields, conservation of fertility and careful use of each hectare.

How can agricultural land be valued so that the price includes not only current income, but also future depletion risks? How to attract ethical investments in the agricultural industry without slipping into green PR? And how can a ban on waste be turned into a competitive advantage rather than a limitation?

Moderator: Vsevolod Bebutov, CEO, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Azot Group of Companies.

The Muslim heritage is not only ancient manuscripts, mosques and artifacts. This is an asset that, with proper management, begins to work for the economy: it attracts tourists, creates jobs, forms the brand of the territory and opens channels for international cultural cooperation.

The Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Tatarstan gathers archaeologists, restorers, museum workers, tourism managers and representatives of international organizations on its site. The session focuses on new results of Muslim archaeology (including discoveries in Tatarstan and other regions), as well as applied issues.: How can heritage sites be included in tourist routes so that they generate income, and not only require budget financing?

A separate section is international cooperation. How can we build joint projects for the conservation and popularization of heritage, taking into account the differences in regulation, financing and cultural approaches? Which formats of cooperation (exhibitions, grants, internships) actually work, and which remain a declaration?

The task of the working group is to translate geographical proximity and historical logistics links into the language of specific contracts and transit agreements.

Participants will focus on three practical tracks: launching regular supplies of food and energy resources, simplifying phytosanitary and customs procedures, and finding sustainable settlement models that are convenient for businesses on both sides. Special attention is paid to the potential of Afghanistan as a transit bridge for Russian goods to South Asian markets.

What are the first practical steps outlined by the participants of the working group to launch regular food and energy supplies between Russia and Afghanistan? What is the potential of Afghanistan as a transit corridor for Russian goods to South Asian markets, and what joint logistics projects could implement this?

The meeting aims to create a predictable, depoliticized framework for mutual trade, where success is measured not by statements, but by the number of issued waybills and launched joint logistics routes.

The session will consider approaches to the formation of a unified material and technical base for construction, taking into account the climatic, economic, religious and cultural characteristics of Russia and the countries of the Islamic world.

The standard of living of the population is not only income statistics, but also the ability of the state to quickly respond to the vulnerability of families, create working elevators for the unemployed and help those who cannot help themselves. At this session, three countries — Russia, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan — will present measurable social support mechanisms rather than declarations on the same platform for the first time.

The Russian Federation will share modern approaches to poverty assessment (including multidimensional poverty beyond income) and a system of measures to support the population, from social contracts to digital services. The Republic of Tatarstan will show a regional cross-section: how targeted assistance is built in practice, combining federal standards and local specifics.

Uzbekistan will present a model for promoting the employment of the unemployed — informal and formal, with an emphasis on training, subsidies and involvement in productive work. Tajikistan will talk about social policy aimed at vulnerable and low-income groups in conditions of migration dependence and limited budgetary resources.

How can well-being be measured where official statistics do not reflect reality? Is it possible to copy a social contract from Russia to Uzbekistan or Tajikistan without loss of effectiveness? And most importantly, how can we make social assistance not an eternal burden, but a temporary springboard out of poverty?

The session is intended for relevant ministries, social agencies, regional managers and international organizations working on sustainable development goals.

Organizer: Accounting and Auditing organizations of Islamic financial institutions AAOIFI.

Sukuk is one of the most complex and at the same time sought-after instruments of the Islamic financial market. But the success of the sukuk issue depends not only on the approval of the Sharia council. The key risks lie in the structuring, asset management and correct financial reporting. This is where discrepancies between investors' expectations and actual execution most often arise.

AAOIFI— a global developer of standards in the field of Islamic accounting, auditing and management, is conducting a workshop that closes this gap. The format is not lecture-based: from concept to case study.

Participants go through a full cycle: from asset selection and legal design to post-issue management and reporting according to AAOIFI standards. The end-to-end case allows you to face real problems in practice.: what should I do if the asset ceases to generate income, how to disclose information in case of partial early repayment, and how to meet the requirements of the regulator, sharia law, and international standards?

Workshop Instructors:

●        Andrey Zhuravlev, Senior Researcher at the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences;

Russian universities have long been doing more than just sending students abroad for internships. They are opening branches in Uzbekistan, launching networking programs with universities in Islamic countries, and creating Russian language centers in places where they were only talked about five years ago. But there is still no systematic understanding of what works and what doesn't, which formats give real results, and which remain beautiful reports.

The main question is: how to make Russia's academic presence in the OIC countries not a one-time project, but a sustainable system? Branches are expensive and difficult. Online programs are cheaper, but how are they recognized at home and abroad? Russian language centers are in demand, but who finances them?

The purpose of the event: to develop the activities of branches of Russian educational organizations abroad, Russian language centers, the implementation of educational networks jointly with universities of the OIC countries, and other forms of Russia's academic presence in the OIC countries.

Halal and organic products have long been perceived as niche markets with strict restrictions. Today they are becoming a laboratory for the entire food industry. Why? Because the requirements of halal certification and the organic standard are not prohibitions, but a system of total quality control, traceability and purity. This is exactly what the modern consumer expects from a manufacturer in any country.

Key issues of the session: how to combine disparate Halal standards from different countries into a system that is understandable to both the manufacturer and the consumer? Can organic products be competitive without subsidies? And most importantly, how can Tatarstan take the place of a regional hub for halal and organic products in the OIC market?

The session is organized for manufacturers, certification bodies, processors, retailers and investors who see the halal and organic sector not as fashion, but as an economy.

Organizer: Lomonosov Moscow State University.

The Islamic financial model is growing exponentially, but its academic foundation is still shaken by internal contradictions. The Faculty of Economics of Lomonosov Moscow State University invites you to a frank conversation about the "blind spots" of the industry.

Experts from Moscow State University and leading practitioners of Islamic finance will engage in a discussion about methodological conflicts: why classical economics is not always friendly with partner finance, how to combine strict Sharia norms with the Russian Civil Code, and where does efficiency disappear when trying to standardize everything? A separate section is the personnel crisis: where to get financiers who simultaneously understand derivative financial instruments and fiqh. This is a session with no ready answers, but with an honest diagnosis of the industry.

Why does the Islamic monetary system require a complete overhaul and how does it fundamentally differ from the fiat one? How to combine climate risks and Islamic investment — and why does ESG not work, but the quality approach gives results? What prevents the launch of "Islamic windows" in Russian banks and what international experience can be adapted today? Where can I get staff for Islamic finance in Russia and how should university education change?

Tourism is not just about beaches, excursions and hotels. This is a powerful tool of economic diplomacy that allows an investor to see the site with his own eyes, an industrialist to assess the partner's capacity, and a region to present itself not through powerpoint presentations, but through real production lines and infrastructure facilities.

The key idea is to use industrial and business tourism as a practical tool for deepening cooperation. The discussion focused on the creation and promotion of joint industrial routes, the attraction of Islamic capital and public-private partnership instruments in the tourism infrastructure, the export potential of Halal tourism, as well as the training of personnel for the implementation of projects. Special attention is paid to regional models of successful cooperation (Tatarstan, Bashkortostan, the North Caucasus) and overcoming existing barriers to the integration of tourism into the overall economic strategy of cooperation.

How can we maximize the potential of tourism, including industrial, business, and Halal tourism, to strengthen economic cooperation between Russia and the OIC countries and transform tourism initiatives into real investment projects?

Halal products today occupy a significant share in international trade and exports, forming a steady demand from the countries of the Islamic world. In these conditions, the development of specialized logistics solutions that ensure compliance with halal standards at all stages of transportation is of particular importance.

How can we build effective logistics for halal products that meet international standards and the demands of key markets? The session will discuss the role of transport and logistics operators in ensuring the end-to-end supply of halal products, the requirements for infrastructure and transportation processes, as well as the prospects for integrating Russian logistics solutions into international supply chains of the Islamic world.

The session participants consider practical cases of launching specialized logistics services for the transportation of halal products, discuss requests from the largest Russian manufacturers of the agro-industrial complex, as well as the expectations of importers from interested countries.

The session will become a platform for dialogue between business, government agencies and international partners in order to form common approaches to the development of halal logistics and strengthen Russia's position in the foreign markets of halal products.

The BRICS countries are creating new formats of practical cooperation of global importance. The International Association of Special Economic Zones of the BRICS countries, initiated by Russia in 2024, has become one of the key instruments. Its goal is to develop effective territories with preferential treatment and assist in the localization of business on infrastructure-prepared sites.

The principles of this cooperation are fixed at the highest level. The Kazan Declaration on the results of the XVI Brics Summit, as well as the Rio de Janeiro Declaration on the results of the XVII Brics Summit, recognized the effectiveness of the SEZs of the BRICS countries as a well-established mechanism for trade and industrial cooperation and promotion of production development.

In addition, the BRICS Economic Partnership Strategy 2030, outlined in the Rio Declaration, defines the need to consolidate the principles of cooperation on issues related to the digital economy, international trade, and sustainable development.

Work on the creation and development of special economic zones should also be continued with the countries of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). The successful experience of deploying production from OIC countries in the territories of Russian special economic zones indicates that joint projects are a promising area of cooperation.

What specific steps and mechanisms make it possible to maximize the use of the SEZ potential to strengthen Russia's economic ties with the Central Asian states and expand cooperation within the framework of BRICS and the OIC?

The central question is: how to balance tradition and openness, religious norms and multicultural reality, national heritage and the global cultural market? Especially at times when some are trying to abolish Russian culture, while others are trying to impose alien values on the Islamic world under the guise of universal ones.

"The Art of Dialogue: the role of Russia and the countries of the Islamic world in preserving world culture" is the theme of the year. Russia and the countries of the Islamic world have a unique historical experience of coexistence of different cultures and religions on the same territory. This experience is in demand today more than ever. Participants will discuss specific mechanisms for heritage preservation, educational programs on intercultural literacy and the role of culture in social cohesion — from Tatarstan to Senegal, from Indonesia to Bosnia.

The session is a discussion platform in the field of preservation and promotion of objects of intangible ethno-cultural heritage (ONED). The session focuses on the unique heritage of the Islamic world, which, on the one hand, is a deep expression of religious and ethnic identity, and, on the other, an important resource for intercultural dialogue in the context of globalization. The session will be structured around several key topics, such as a strategy for identifying and preserving "living" heritage in the modern world, where special attention will be paid to the role of local communities as the main bearers of traditions and the need for a balance between authenticity and adaptation; practical cases of successful work with objects of intangible ethnocultural heritage of the Islamic world — from traditional crafts and performing arts from arts to rituals and holidays — with an analysis of both successful nominations to UNESCO lists and projects for their livelihood at the national level; prospects, consideration of new formats of popularization, digitalization and educational use of heritage.

During the discussion, the participants will discuss the following issues:

What are the 2-3 key factors that determine the success of the nomination of intangible heritage sites of the Islamic world to the UNESCO list?

How can local communities participate more effectively in the preservation and transmission of ethno—cultural traditions, and what support tools do they need?

The outcome of the session should be not only a meaningful discussion, but also the formation of specific recommendations and, possibly, a roadmap for strengthening the role of the intangible ethno-cultural heritage of the Islamic world in the global cultural agenda, strengthening dialogue and mutual understanding between peoples.

Partner organizers: Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation, RusQuality Halal Certification.

Russian exports to the countries of the Islamic world are growing, but the potential has not been fully exploited. Why? Because "just taking out the goods" is not enough. It is necessary to understand halal certification, adapt packaging and labeling to the requirements of a particular country, build logistics and, most importantly, gain the trust of a consumer who will not buy a product if he doubts its compliance with the standards.

The Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia and Roskachestvo gather at the same site those who form the export policy and those who implement it on the ground.

The key question of the session: how to make sure that the Russian manufacturer is not afraid to enter the OIC markets, and the consumer in Jakarta or Istanbul chooses "Made in Russia" not because it is cheaper, but because he trusts.

Interest in partner financing in Russia is growing noticeably, especially in the business environment. For entrepreneurs and financial institutions, this is primarily a search for new tools for business development, attracting investment and entering new markets. This session will bring together business representatives participating in the experiment under 417-FZ, who are already using partner financing tools or are just learning them in practice. Participants share their real-world experiences: which models have already proven their effectiveness, what challenges the business is facing, and what opportunities are opening up in the current environment.

In the format of a live discussion, we will discuss:

• How Islamic financial instruments can be used in business activities;

• Which niches and industries have the greatest potential;

• What restrictions exist today — legal, operational and market;

• What steps can contribute to the further development of the industry, including expanding the product line, improving regulation, and raising market awareness.

Yachting tourism and related infrastructure are becoming one of the most promising areas of coastal development. Water tourism and related infrastructure are becoming one of the most promising areas of coastal development.  Yacht ports (marinas), harbors and multifunctional tourist complexes near the water today are not just places for mooring ships, but complex urban planning nodes that form new centers of attraction for tourists, investors and local communities. In Russia, which has a unique water potential (13 seas, the largest river systems), the development of yacht infrastructure is one of the priorities set out in the Concept of Yacht Tourism Development until 2030.

The key challenges are the formation of a systematic approach to the placement of marinas and their design methodology. The Unified Institute of Spatial Planning of the Russian Federation (UIPP RF), commissioned by the Ministry of Construction of the Russian Federation, completed a large-scale study in 2025, "Development of proposals for the urban design of yacht ports (marinas)," which resulted in proposals for the development of a classification of yacht ports, an approach to the functional zoning and balance of the territory of yacht ports, as well as a location assessment system.

In 2026, the EIPP of the Russian Federation began work on the study "Development of mechanisms for prioritizing the placement of yacht infrastructure on inland waterways, taking into account the goals of the strategic development of the Russian Federation."

The results of the 2025 work and the preliminary results of the 2026 work will be the starting point for the discussion.

The Russian Federation's response to the unprecedented sanctions pressure from unfriendly countries has been the use of effective budget incentive mechanisms, while increasing the expenditure parts of budgets at all levels and strengthening legal protection mechanisms for socially responsible businesses.

The moderate conservative policy pursued by the country's leadership in the context of the transition to multipolarity is aimed at consistently solving social problems, ensuring predictable business conditions, as well as attracting investments in the modernization of production based on the domestic technological base.

For these purposes, prosecutors provide supervisory support for all measures provided in the Russian jurisdiction to support and stimulate entrepreneurial initiatives, as well as the formation of an easy-to-use and effective legal framework for the business community.

The international exchange of best practices with prosecutor's offices, anti-corruption and other competent agencies of foreign countries has been intensified.

Key questions: What is the coordinating role of the Russian Prosecutor's Office in building comfortable conditions for doing business? Why is the balance of interests of the state, society and business especially important today? What foreign experience can be used in the work of the Russian prosecutor's office?

Ghana is one of the most stable and dynamically developing democracies in West Africa. Its reserves of gold, oil, gas, cocoa and a growing middle class make it not just an interesting partner, but a strategic gateway to the subregion. So far, Russian business has paid less attention to Ghana than it deserves. This round table is designed to remedy the situation.

For the first time, key players shaping economic relations between Russia and Ghana are gathering on the same site.

This is an attempt to launch the first ever Russia—Ghana systemic dialogue at the level of business practitioners, not just diplomats.

Key issues: What does Ghana need from Russia right now: investment, technology, education, or political support? Ghana Investment Promotion Center (GIPC): what preferences can a Russian investor really get and how quickly? Where can Russian technologies meet Ghana's needs — in generation, networks or renewable energy? How many Ghanaian students are willing to accept Russian universities under quotas and contracts? How to structure transactions between Ghana and Russia in the current conditions (currency, correspondent banks, clearing)?

In Russia, he is still at the beginning of his journey.

What are the real prospects for the growth of the partner capital market in Russia in the current economic conditions?

Organizer: State Committee on tourism of the Republic of Tatarstan.

Travel is the most effective diplomacy because it strips stereotypes of their power. To see with your own eyes, to taste the local cuisine, to hear someone else's speech, to understand the logic of behavior is something that cannot be conveyed through news headlines. For Russia and the Islamic countries, separated by thousands of kilometers, differences in language and cultural codes, tourism is becoming not just an industry, but a strategic tool for mutual understanding.

The State Committee of the Republic of Tatarstan for Tourism gathers on its site those who build bridges across the isthmus.

The key question of the session: how to turn tourism from a conversational topic into a real growing tourist flow from the OIC countries to Russia? What needs to be done, from visa policy and language navigation to training guides and setting up halal hotels? What experience of Tatarstan, Dagestan, Moscow, Kaluga region and the Caucasus can be scaled? And what is the role of media in overcoming stereotypes?

Africa is a continent with a powerful cultural, linguistic and civilizational diversity. And to build a long-term partnership, contracts alone are not enough. Cultural diplomacy is needed: education, art, museum exchanges, and joint creative projects. They create the very fabric of trust, without which any memorandum remains on paper.

The Center for Public Diplomacy gathers ministers of Culture, Tourism and Communications from Burkina Faso, Togo, Mali, Sierra Leone, as well as members of the parliaments of Ghana and Sierra Leone in Kazan. The Russian side is represented at a high level.

The session focuses not on general words about the friendship of peoples, but on specific mechanisms: educational exchanges, cultural projects (festivals, exhibitions, theater tours), joint museum initiatives, and training for culture and tourism.

Key issues: Educational exchanges: how many African students in the field of culture and arts are ready to accept Russian universities in 2026? What joint cultural projects (festivals, exhibitions, tours) should become the hallmark of the Russian-African partnership? How can the success of cultural diplomacy be measured: by the number of signed memoranda, the growth of the tourist flow, or the strengthening of Russia's political position in Africa?

Moderator: Leonid Isaev, Scientific Director of the Center for Public Diplomacy, Doctor of Political Sciences, Professor at the Higher School of Economics Research University, Senior Researcher at the Institute of Africa of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Signing a contract is half the battle. It is much more difficult to be sure that the rights under it will be protected if a dispute arises. In international trade, especially between countries with different legal systems and cultural traditions, trust in dispute resolution mechanisms becomes a critical factor that either opens doors to transactions or shuts them forever. International commercial arbitration is not a legal abstraction, but a practical tool that allows businesses to feel protected.

The main objective of the session is to inform Russian and foreign entrepreneurs about the advantages of international commercial arbitration as a way to resolve foreign economic disputes and about the possibilities of the International Commercial Arbitration Court at the Chambers of Commerce and Industry of the Russian Federation.

Russian halal has long ceased to be a niche product for domestic consumption. It is a full-fledged export product with growing demand in the markets of the OIC, Southeast Asia and Africa. But the path from a Russian manufacturer to a counter in Dubai, Jakarta or Dhaka is littered with barriers: different standards, lack of mutual recognition of certificates, lack of trust in foreign certification bodies. Rosaccreditation and Roskachestvo unite on one platform those who form the rules of the game.

Key questions: Mutual recognition of certificates: which countries are being negotiated closest to completion? What can Russia take now, and what needs to be adapted? Why is Russian halal still not properly represented in the Persian Gulf countries — regulation, logistics, or lack of trust? What should Rosaccreditation and Roskachestvo do together with their foreign partners by the end of 2026 to increase Russian exports of halal products by 30-40%?

Partner organizers: Embassy of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia in the Russian Federation

Ethiopia is the second most populous country in Africa, one of the fastest growing economies on the continent, the gateway to the Horn of Africa and a transit hub for the entire East of Africa. At the same time, the level of bilateral trade with Russia today does not match the potential of either side. The session, organized by the Embassy of Ethiopia in the Russian Federation with the support of the REC, aims to correct this imbalance by translating diplomatic goodwill into specific contracts and investment projects.

The key question of the session: what needs to be done so that the Russian exporter stops fighting For Africa and begins to perceive Ethiopia as a clear and predictable market? What tools of the REC, regional support from Tatarstan and Moscow, and diplomatic support from the embassy can remove barriers to entry?

In intercultural communication, there are several main areas that differ in the object of research, methods and approaches: sociological, ethno-psychology, regional studies, art history, intercultural competencies, technologies in intercultural communication, etc.

The factor of the active role of the community in the context of intercultural communication should be noted separately. They can be either monocultural or multicultural, that is, they include representatives of different cultural groups. Intercultural communication and communities are closely linked: communities can both create barriers to effective interaction and become a platform for cultural exchange and the development of intercultural competence.

Nature does not recognize state borders. Environmental challenges such as climate change, soil degradation, clean water pollution, air pollution, and loss of biodiversity are equally relevant for Russia with its vast expanses and for the countries of the Islamic world with their arid climate and rapidly growing populations. The answer to these challenges may not be competition, but cooperation. Technological alliances, born out of the need to protect nature, can become a solid foundation for long-term economic partnership.

The Agency for Strategic Initiatives (ASI) presents the session in a unique format — "technology exchanges". These are not lectures or panel discussions in the classical sense. This is a lively, structured dialogue in which Russian developers present specific solutions, and foreign partners — representatives of ministries and departments — evaluate them and outline their national priorities.

The Eurasian space is undergoing a stage of accelerated restructuring of trade and logistics routes, where Central Asia, the Volga region and the Persian Gulf countries are becoming key participants in the formation of a new geography of transportation. Traditional caravan routes and the interests of modern railway administrations intersect here, as well as transportation routes to major seaports and overland routes for industrial shippers.

The session will focus on the transformation of national infrastructure transport projects into a coherent network of international corridors with predictable logistics and a sustainable investment model. The discussion will touch upon issues of capacity regulation, multimodal hubs, digitalization of transportation documents, cross-border financing, and the role of railways, ports, and land access to Middle Eastern markets.

Special attention will be paid to Tatarstan as an internal transport hub, Kazakhstan as a transit link between China and Russia, as well as the capabilities of Syria, Qatar and the UAE in the field of transit logistics. Tracing new international transport corridors for access to the Eurasian sea gates is especially relevant for landlocked countries. In the future, the role of Russia, Kazakhstan and Central Asia in rebuilding the region's infrastructure and creating new ways of interaction will be important.

A museum is not a place to store antiquities. It is a meeting place of cultures, a dialogue of times and peoples. In a world where borders between states are becoming more permeable, and the flows of migrants and tourists are becoming more intense, understanding foreign culture is no longer a luxury and is becoming a vital necessity. The Islamic heritage is a huge stratum of world civilization, without which it is impossible to build a respectful and productive dialogue between Russia and the Islamic world.

Key questions: What is Egypt's experience in presenting Islamic heritage to a global audience that can be useful to Russian museums? What joint exhibition projects with museums of Islamic countries are planned in the next 1-2 years? What is the specificity of presenting Islamic heritage in a secular country with nomadic traditions?

Russia has extensive experience in the production of high-quality goods that are in demand in the countries of the Islamic world. To increase the export potential and strengthen the position of Russian goods, including in these regions, the "Made in Russia" program was launched, which helped companies adapt their promotion strategies to the specifics of the Islamic world markets.

To successfully enter the markets of Islamic countries, it is necessary not only to master basic knowledge about the culture and economic specifics of the region, but also to delve into its social, religious and business characteristics. This includes understanding Islamic values, business rules, and consumer expectations. Willingness to invest in long-term projects and the development of local initiatives contributes not only to gaining a foothold in the market, but also to creating a solid foundation for sustainable business development.

Key issues of the session: What modern marketing formats are most effective for attracting the attention of consumers in these regions? How does the Made in Russia program help Russian companies build long-term partnerships in the markets of the Islamic world? What features of cultural traditions should be taken into account when promoting Russian products?

Bioeconomics is not just a fashionable term from strategic documents. This is a new technological reality, where biological resources become the basis for the production of energy, materials, food, medicines, and more. For Russia, with its vast territories, unique biodiversity and rich natural resources, the development of a bioeconomy is not a choice, but a strategic necessity. And the regions play a key role in this process.

Key issues: How can bioeconomics become a tool for leveling the socio-economic development of regions — not only for oil and gas, but also for agricultural, forest, and coastal areas? How is a large oil company diversifying into biotechnology and what is Tatarstan's role in the Russian bioeconomy? What genetic technologies for agriculture and animal husbandry are ready for implementation in the regions? Where and how to train a new type of specialists — biological technologists who can work at the intersection of science, engineering and business?
