i didn't understand the rescue operation. the volume of investments in the construction of the complex for processing gas condensate amounted to 50

billion rubles. leonid mikhelson, chairman of the board of novatek, announced this at the site of the st. petersburg international economic forum. all the details, we will find out from my colleague, i am nobody and she is in direct contact with us nika tell us what agreements have already appeared as part of the work of the form tatiana welcomes. it is really traditional for companies at the forum to sign an agreement, conclude contracts, present novelties. this is how sber held a press conference of the first deputy chairman of the board alexander vidyakhin in the tele-bridge mode. and he said that sberbank has approved a policy of responsible financing, which spells out the principles of such financing, and also consolidates a transparent evaluation mechanism and juries, what are the principles of sustainable development, which include social environmental responsibility, as well as competent management, but in addition, the document contains restrictions on a number of types of financial activities, including pawnshops and

microfinance organizations. so they bear high and eat risks, and when creating the document , the best world experience was used, therefore alexander vidyakhin. told us. we have looked at 50 best documents of this kind from international practice. uh, discussed with leading partner banks. this is our national and sg alliance first . uh, and basically approved this policy and published it. i repeat. it can be viewed. this is the first comprehensive document, of course, of this level. well, we hope that this document will set standards in the market, and other banks and financial institutions will follow us. in russia, in particular, at the university a higher institution with an emphasis on mathematics and computer science, and the curriculum will be created with the participation of the country's leading physics and mathematics universities, as well as

major employer companies. well, what is the main difference of this university in the so-called product approach, that is , a minimum of bureaucracy and at the same time the convenience of using all systems for both students and teachers, as well as for future employers. well, the announcement of the launch of the university took place as part of a panel session dedicated to the industrial revolution , where participants talked about the fact that modern technologies are already replacing people, including artificial intelligence can successfully replace people in some types of activities in professions. well, in such a situation, of course, it is important to change the very approach to learning. and now, well, the university will focus on teaching the new generation. the main tasks are at the beginning at the entrance to expand the funnel, who, as it were, the environment applicants, then he can get an education, then the second mission of this specialist is to give e-profession skills, hard lysov skills teamwork skills understanding how

to present the right priority is to understand why the product is needed, how to pump technical skills from the point, there is the development of mathematics analytics so that the result of this activity is that we get orders of magnitude more technical guys who can create some products or optimize some processes in all companies in all industries that exist. official ceremony of launching the hydrocracking complex in the port service on the baltic sea here is a set of agreements between the company and the ministry of energy and aimed at creating new processing capacities . it is especially important to note that during the construction at the start of the project , domestic technologies were used and infrastructure. the total investment

amounted to about 50 billion rubles. we have made good chains for the sale of all products and are ready, just our service, to sell more. after launching on e. on the hitlers of the rating, it was decided to build a third stage in order to cover these peaks of the extracted condensate. and so that we have seven eight million tons there. uh, the permanent regiment was 365 days a year and uh, in the middle of next year, uh, the third phase will be introduced. the environmental operator at the forum site set a green van. this is a recycling workshop where various workshops on ecology are held, including one can see how plastics are recycled. what products are obtained from it can be seen? how does the cipher

of eco-bags from bars go by, and how does he customize clothes? well, the main task of this van, it turns out. uh, hmm to popularize the reform of you whom, that is, municipal solid waste and, in general, to show interesting and accessible, how the circular economy works . in general, if we talk about the level of localization of equipment for our industry, then it is one of the highest in some positions, we reach more than 90 percent of already russian equipment used at sorting facilities at the st. petersburg economic forum . in fact, it was always presented worthy. uh, in our opinion, the green van will help to demonstrate it in a more visual way to the widest range of participants. what is recycling, how important is it on the one hand, how simple is it on the other hand. and what do we have as a result in this respect? on in the form of small and medium-sized businesses , a panel dedicated to the development of the domestic perfumery and cosmetics industry was held. well, in the twenty-second year, the participants

experienced serious difficulties, lost european markets, experienced difficulties with the purchase of raw materials. and most importantly, they had to, and to accustom consumers to russian goods, but, nevertheless. even despite such difficulties, in the twenty-second year, domestic enterprises produced about three and a half billion units of cosmetic products and increased their share on the market by 12%, and if we talk about this, at the beginning of the twenty-third it was already registered, and more than 700 companies that indicated the production of cosmetic products as their main activity, but even though the industry has adapted, the government continues to provide support. i would single out three main main directions. this is import substitution. uh, components of raw materials, these are support measures and the implementation of new projects. and this is the promotion and popularization of domestic brands. we have a wide range of measures

support, ranging from subsidies for research experience for design work, ending with benefits and preferential loans for the implementation of projects and presentations that take place here in st. petersburg at the expoforum site and we will talk about them on the next airs. in the meantime, i give the floor, my colleagues kudryavtseva are now in our studio natalya popova, the first deputy general director of the company for practice, natalya good afternoon, and the first question. tell us, how can you evaluate the role of high-tech companies in achieving domestic? sovereignty and technological independence well, the role can actually be assessed, because they have now actively entered into import substitution and our high-tech. uh, our company is national champions - these are just those companies that are at the forefront of import substitution, which are now performing very important tasks for the country, they occupy

vacant niches and despite the fact that their supply chains are also broken. they have certainly suffered yes from the current crisis, starting with the pandemic, but, nevertheless, they, and due to such lability. they were able to transform and reconfigure for the necessary tasks. they need to understand that the companies in the high-tech segment are national champions, which we select are companies with a capitalization of 500 million. up to 30 billion - these are companies that grow very quickly at least 12% per year for this company, which have high deductions on it , that is, they are less than eight percent on r&d and a large share of exactly new innovative products in revenue. well, indeed , these companies create not only surplus. the value directly in their industries, well, in related industries, that is, for each ruble of its value. they create another ruble in related industries. that is, they have the largest value added coefficient, many import-substituting projects. we now see that they are being solved at the expense of our high-tech companies. well, it turns out

if these companies, national champions , have such a significant effect. and what factors can influence the fact that there are more such companies in the country. well, in fact, of course, financial factors, he the main one, and we conducted surveys, what is necessary for the company for their growth, it is clear what they call primarily financial support measures. moreover , both grant support and subsidizing interest rates help in attracting exchange financing. well, the so-called software support. yes, that is, but various assistance in reconfiguring the management system, because they are growing very quickly, they are outgrowing the bar. uh, attributing 2 billion small medium-sized businesses. they outgrow very quickly and it is clear that they not only have to. and to set up their own management competencies, but they have to a-a look for other financing measures, because we know that for the sme segment, there are a huge number of support measures. and once you outgrow that segment. you decide on these measures, especially with regard to social tax contributions. and it is clear that there are a

lot of mechanisms for concessional lending to smes. and imagine, when they have such a high growth, then they outgrow and instead of the three percent that is provided for smes, they fall under 11%, yes, that is, without co-financing, subsidizing interest rates, it is clear that it is very difficult for companies and it turns out that they fall into such a second valley of death, that is, measures, of course, of a financial nature and not financial and institutional. that is, in principle, there is still an environment, that is, access to personnel is mandatory, and the education system is access. e to the best university to the best solution. that is, indeed, a lot on many fronts. we have to work to make our high tech feel feel comfortable in our country. well, that is, what is important is that there are support measures not only for small medium-sized businesses, but specifically for mature companies that are ready to contribute precisely to technological sovereignty. well, there are not so many of them, in fact, such support measures, because indeed for small businesses, in addition to tax legitimation, there are also many financial mechanisms. like interest rate subsidies. now

from what we have done and what we are proud of. uh, here's a ped project that a provides a large number of measures to support the rise of a startup before an ipo, it contains two very important mechanisms, firstly, subsidizing interest rates, but this is just for the high-tech segment in smes. that is, uh, 3%, they can lend at this rate, and uh, another mechanism. this is the restoration of 392, and about the gifting. and here is a very important story, because a company can receive a grant of up to 250 million. under the guarantee of just large players, large customers. that is, these are all our majors. and here two points are very important. first, what we consolidating. because our market capacity is russian. it is not enough to create some kind of technological solution, for example, even if the customer is a major corporation, such as gazprom or rosneft. uh, we don't have enough, but the ability to create a competitive product. eh, low cost indeed. just because the economies of scale will be

small, and we will not be able to fit into the economic parameters. but if we consolidate the demand of all players, then we can , uh, make some kind of technological solution we pay off. make by e, low cost and implement it in all companies. here are some examples, indeed we have already managed to make, for example, a solution with gazprom's ice-resistant platform for lip optics. and this platform will go into series. we have already replaced imports by 74 billion rubles. each platform costs more than 120 billion, but those solutions that are used within this ice-resistant platform. they, for example, e, are also used for nornickel. here, and those platform itself is what we used to do for or in south korea, china on it, for example, one of technological solutions are rotary cranes norilsk nickel purchased before ulitkir. and now those solutions that are applied within the framework of gazprom they are rotary cranes. e are made for norilsk nickel, it also replaces its technological solutions. that is, such a consolidated demand, and it

makes it possible to decide a lot in import substitution, and hmm, companies. thanks to this program, thanks to the start-up fet project , they can receive grants up to 250 million . well, related to msp. there, the lower bar. here just came out 2 days ago. a new government decree that lowered the bar from 500 million to 300 million. and the upper bar there is 10 billion. that is, this is already an average medium-sized large business. that is, they can all qualify for this measure of support . i understand. and tell us more about it. and who are the national champions, who can receive this status? who has already received it? how many such companies in total, what kind of project is this project started in 2016? this year is a priority project of the ministry of economic development, that is, the main the purpose of the project was not even a measure of financial support. it was some kind of networking, because at that time, the main goal was to grow our transnational corporations, yes, and then they would take over the export strategy. yes, they will be very uh,

grow rapidly both in the russian market and develop in international markets and uh, the solution of these technology companies were presented in our uh, a big business of our managers. that is, such networking was created, it is clear what to talk about transnational corporations now. well, a few more difficult, however. yes our national champions continue the strategy. we know those companies that simply refocused on the latin american and east asian markets and so on. that is, in principle, they still have an export component. well , indeed, this project at the ministry of economic development was going on until 2019. and then we, together with rvc, in practice, together with rvc, picked it up and are already doing it, but new selections. the national champions have now passed, the third selection and now the company has already become 105, but you need to understand that in principle, there are no more than 500 of them on the market . that is, this is such a piece product that can meet certain parameters, and we hmm and now we work not only for networking. yes, not only to really reduce these to operational chains and

present the technological solutions of our high-tech to large companies. but we are also working on the institutional environment, and it is very pleasant that the company is a national champion. they became visible. just last year, the president mentioned several times fast-growing technology companies and in a meeting on projects and in a message to the federal assembly, it was said that incentives should be extended. and, firstly, and those companies that receive benefits , how should msv be extended to high-tech and date the company's ipo and hmm, but date not only the companies themselves, yes, but also investors who finance e, high texts, that is these companies have become. apparently, there are indeed a lot of support measures in the circuit. now more and more are sent. here we are with andrei than belousov we are also working on a lot of mechanisms, since again he is in charge, this color will suit the take-off project from the start. and now there is a bill in the state duma that will allow the cut-off bar for high-tech small companies to be raised from 2 billion to 4 billion. and

this is very important, because the bar is 2 billion companies. well, they all outgrow very quickly when they are asked about those support measures that could help them develop faster in the russian market. they, uh, talk about something that is very sharp and painful. they fall out of the sme segment, so now we are working in this direction. i think it's good enough. thank you very much, we will follow the results. here is this work, but i remind you that in our studio there was the first deputy general director of the company for practice, natalya dad, i pass the floor to the studio. marina thank you for being your guest at the site of the international economic forum in st. petersburg my colleague maria gubernatorov works in the st. meeting indicators of the investment attractiveness of their regions and talk about development plans. and this is what the leaders of the kaliningrad region shared in an interview with our tv channel. anton andreevich

good afternoon, the first traditional question is about transit. what difficult moments still remain now? how do you manage to overcome them and what are the numbers now and actually? what options we have, you know , certain problems with lithuania continue, but, nevertheless. we also retain the automobile transit of some of these goods, who did not fall under these, but european sanctions. uh, railway transit also continues, and even in honor of the so-called sanctioned goods, but the lithuanians, together with the europeans, have limited the volume of these railway transportations, and now on the sea line, which has become such a salvation for us, and a sea bridge from the main territory the country has 20 courts. if in the twenty-second year we started with two, now there are 20 of these vessels and approximately 40% of the cargo turnover of our region. we reoriented to the sea line, and last year, thanks to the order the president received a fairly large amount, and funds for subsidies.

not our business, and we were able to lend to several of our companies, which bought ready-made ships from the southern, let's say, seas from the black mediterranean, and now they will come out within a few weeks, just on e. our direction will come from the mediterranean to us in the baltic and this is even more, and it will strengthen this independence, but among an urgent perspective. we continue to work with the ministry of transport with the ministry of industry and trade usc e. of course we want to build a few more large vapors, railway and electricity, one roam, which will work as a rolling technique in order to no longer depend on the actions of our neighbors and be completely insured against some kind of new encroachments on their part. well, you know, we're actually new here, here are the ferries that we launched. we made a decision on the need for their construction in the seventeenth year. then, too, nothing

foreshadowed. it would seem, uh, these problems and we all talked about wto commitments, which means europe on freedom of transit kaliningrad, but nevertheless they understood that there were still risks and made a decision even in the absence, it seems, of economic logic, to build these ferries, because independence is such sovereignty. uh, in decision making. it must take place. we must build up this transport sovereignty, with kaliningrad transit and further, as the economic situation in the region and the investment potential of the region are now being assessed. after all, a special war, an operation, how it affected the current situation. well you know, uh like uh hmm we, probably not specifically a military operation , rather about sanctions, they affected, but negatively on our regions, but i already said that's about the transport aspect and i forgot, by the way, to mention that almost 4 billion rubles. to subsidize the marine component. the government has given us this. this is very

significant. uh, it will help us to keep transportation prices at the same level and, accordingly, not to raise prices for final products. and if we talk about economic parameters, then surprisingly, but in general, last year was one of the record ones for us. uh, we are more than 140 billion rubles. investments are seen in the economy and are mostly private investments. and if we talk about the tax base, a + 24% last year by 21 is also quite successful. e, so i can’t say that it was a failure of e. and, of course, there were very big difficulties for our largest industrial manufacturer, the avtotor group of companies. well actually. we, like kaluga and a number of other regions, were such an automotive region and, of course, it was such a shock for us when a kia hyundai bmw in one moment, but ceased cooperation, however the plant. i was able to work until september on

these leftovers before releasing products and since december of last year. they began to cooperate with chinese partners. now five cars, five models are assembled there. by the way, i flew to st. petersburg and was driving. uh, so i came here from pulkovo to the forum and saw chinese kaya e, which are produced here in kaliningrad, well, they are mainly used. i understand taxi drivers. here the st. petersburg taxi changes, including to kaliningrad cars that are produced here, you say five cars. and if there are plans to increase this line or increase production volumes, how much will the line expand to 20 models ? this is when that is, perhaps this year already, but different numbers are called 14 models 20 models depending on how, let's say, the market evaluates. uh, including our chinese partners. well, i want to say that torah has signed a special investment contract

with the government and regional and industrial trade and they are investing very actively. i was recently at the construction of new factories that will produce electric vehicles, i was very pleased with what i saw there. eh, we have now. uh, a new construction site, which is about to begin, uh, a positive conclusion has been received for the plant of the state corporation rosatom for the production of cast batteries, and t4 gb is produced annually. and moreover, the demand is huge, this is not only the author, but also other manufacturers of public transport vehicles in the main territory of the russian federation and kamaz a number of others. but the construction this plant should start literally. here it is this week. and another major construction project , if we talk about investments , will be completed next month , the encore group plant will be launched, which will produce and use silicon wafers.

the solar-powered millet and the solar battery plant itself should start working no later than november of this year, that is, despite all the restrictions on the departure of some european producers there, our business, as it was in 2014, saw a window with the agricultural sector opportunities, and we now ideas and people who want to engage in these projects are intercepted in this way by the market, and the russian and eurasian ones as a whole. e more than a we can sometimes even provide support measures, that is, it is pleasant. in what sense is the situation, because before it was a little different before state support and money. well, i’m talking about kaliningrad now, maybe, yes, but there were more than ideas and people who want to now the situation is a little different, but we will always find money, especially here on the st. petersburg forum there is someone about this talk andrey economy conclusion one more question about the environmental situation in the region about what's in the news today

about a fire? tell us what the situation is now, how it is being solved, well, six calculations are working for us colleagues from the ministry of emergency situations and our volunteers connected. in general, all forces are possible as a situation, unpleasant is, uh, uh, in the opinion of our ministry of natural resources for ecology. e, arson, but, nevertheless, this landfill was planned to be closed here from july of this year. he has already reached its limits. and well , taking into account the fact that we have almost a month even no more rain. uh, flammable is just a very situation. we most likely will not return it to work, that is, now they are finishing extinguishing, within two days at most, as my colleagues and i talked , the burning will be stopped, and we are closing this landfill and starting to design its regeneration. thank you very much for taking the time for our interview. thank you. hello i am glad to welcome you here at studio russia 24 at the site of the st. petersburg

international economic forum. uh, we've already signed some agreements. if yes, tell me good afternoon. yes, i signed the agreement. ah, agreement. yes , it is quite important for our territory, because it is aimed at replacing a food factory, that is, we are trying to go in this direction. we signed an agreement on the creation of another greenhouse complex. we now have, unfortunately, our products that we grow in a greenhouse. it's uh, mostly vegetables. uh we're closed in terms of internal needs are only three or three percent. and these agreements will allow us to close by 11% and a, in terms of agglomeration, what is achievable in terms of logistics delivery by road. we

close almost 100% within two years of greenhouse complexes appearing in the region. yes, because this is a question not only to carry an expensive product. i want the products to be fresh, when you take a cucumber, you smell its beds, it smells like a fresh vegetable. this is worth a lot in our latitudes, and you recently announced creation of a special fund for indigenous peoples. chukotka can tell you more about this. what is it? we are talking about it now. so i met, uh, recently with the elders. and there, not only from them heard this problem. i have enough now.

uh, i travel, i fly, i meet people, uh, in different areas of different settlements, and uh, as far as the work of reindeer herders of people who are engaged in hunting, these are our traditional , uh, types of agriculture, where representatives of indigenous small-numbered people are employed. peoples. technical support requires an obvious improvement in clothing. well, that is, the means of production need to upgrade this. eh, this hasn't been systematically done for a long time. we are currently reviewing. and uh, let's start the update process. there including uh, good enough. we are also assisted by those large investors who work in the region. i would like to make this assistance more systemic and more targeted. that is why we discussed the creation of such a fund as elders. we will do this, either on the basis of existing organizations, or we will do it

something new e. well, this is it, really. it seems to me that what i hear from the elder and you understand them is an important work. uh, the general over the preservation of the everyday language of the traditional business. uh-huh, and the final question. what can you say about the development strategy of the subject? i realized that the development strategy that chukotka has, it requires significant updating, because they must have plans. convenient not for officials, but they should be aimed at precise assistance to people and be based on their visibility of their prioritization. i have enough now i’m flying and talking with people , uh, and people are happy to share plans and questions not only directly related to the territory where i visit

my village directly, but they are ready to talk more widely and uh, such an idea has matured that it is necessary to update it from the point of view view of people's vision program of our development. the priorities are right. uh, now we are doing a program until 2030. it has already been proposed by the inhabitants to call chukotka a hundred, because the thirtieth year is the centennial anniversary of the formation of the chukovsky district. here now collect. uh, we will update it, then we will discuss with people the result of the development of the chukovsky autonomous okrug. thank you very much for the interview. thanks a lot. today in st. petersburg
