People know the names of our artists, but they rarely mention scientists. However, let me name a few: Evgeny Burnaev, Alexander Gasnikov, Ivan Oseledets.*
Vladimir Putin,
President of the Russian Federation
Dmitry Medvedev,
Deputy Chairman of the Security Council
of Russia and Chairman of the Skolkovo Foundation Board of Trustees
I have just been shown a number of interesting [Skoltech] solutions. I hope that all of them will be turned into real products. Some of them are still at the design or patenting stage, while others are already being produced, mostly
in small batches.
Of particular importance is the 5G project, which was implemented with the direct involvement of Skolkovo and Skoltech.
I believe that Russia has the potential to effectively implement import substitution. The concept of technological sovereignty requires concrete solutions and specific content. I am confident that we will be able to achieve this.
Viktor Vekselberg,
Chairman of the Skoltech Board of Trustees
Igor Shuvalov, Сhairman of VEB.RF
Within VEB.RF, the Skolkovo Foundation and Skoltech form a unique professional community that develops advanced technology and pioneers a new culture
of technology entrepreneurship.
This mutually enriching relationship between a research university, science, and business should foster Russian technological leadership and lead to breakthroughs.
