12 December 2017
Alexander Povalko,
RVC CEO
«The technology competitions are a great model. These are competitions concerning global unresolved engineering problems. We had a big argument. We wanted to make a kind of import substitution, slightly simpler than the foreign analogues, but, as a result, we are making the best project in the world. We very much want the potential themes to be supplied to us by the community in the future. We will support this project.».
Alexander Povalko,
RVC CEO
Kirill Kaem
Senior Vice President for Innovation, Skolkovo Foundation
«The competitors will be able to get an expert evaluation of their projects, to use the services of the Skolkovo Technological Park and Skoltekh laboratories as well as to ensure the support of the Skolkovo community. Success is not only a victory. Success is an attracted investment in the technologies that you will create.»

«Motivation - without it, all the rest does not make sense. The second pillar is competence. Thirdly, what you are doing must be in demand.»

«This will not be just an individual technology competition. We are planning to tie our policy of working with universities and technology centres to this system. The competitions have a great potential for deployment, especially in the logic of the NTI matrix. I very much hope that other competitions will also be held according to our model, so that the victory would be awarded not for tons of the prepared paper, but for the result demonstrated.».
