The annual “Open Innovations” forum – the Russia’s largest event on the topic of technological entrepreneurship and innovation development issues - will be held in Moscow for the fourth time from October 28 to November 1.

This year the event will for the first time include a five-day international professional congress and a popular exhibition in the “Technologies Show” format for the public. A meeting of the organizing committee that approved the concept of the event and the exhibition was held on July 15 under the leadership of Deputy Prime Minister of Russia Arkady Dvorkovich.

This year the “Open Innovations” forum is held on the topic “Man at the Crossroads of Trends of the Technological Revolution”. Each of the five days of the forum will be dedicated to one of the five spheres of human life that changed under the influence of the technological revolution: productivity, habitat, education, health and entertainment industry.

The updated “Open Innovations” is an open collar forum, relying on bright interactive formats of presentation and discussion of information inherent to the world’s technological congresses: public interviews, debates, presentations, lectures, master classes, workshops, pitches. A plenary hall as a space for presentations of key speakers will be working during the five days of the forum.

Organizers put a particular emphasis on the youth program where the leaders of the technological world will deliver their ideas and skills to the best students and schoolchildren of Moscow and the regions of Russia, which is necessary for successful development in the new technological reality. The congress will be visited by 3-4 thousand participants daily, according to their professional interests.
