The Innosocium Foundation, the social platform of the Roscongress Foundation, will hold sessions as part of the business programme of the Eastern Economic Forum (EEF) 2024, the BRICS Creative Innovation Forum, and a discussion about public initiatives that combine effective solutions to social problems with a creative approach. The EEF is being organized by the Roscongress Foundation.

“It is obvious that success in creative entrepreneurship is often based on a deep understanding of culture and traditions. This trend is supported by our multifaceted cooperation with BRICS countries. The events of the Innosocium Foundation, the social platform of the Roscongress Foundation, are a popular discussion platform where we can assess the effectiveness of current initiatives in the rapidly developing creative economy,” Adviser to the President of the Russian Federation and Executive Secretary of the EEF Organizing Committee Anton Kobyakov said.

All the main focuses of the programme of the BRICS Creative Innovation Forum, which is being held during the year of Russia’s chairship of this organization, have been prepared with an emphasis on the comprehensive intensification of interaction with partner countries in culture and art.

The main themes of the BRICS Creative Innovation Forum will include a discussion about advanced technologies and innovations in creative entrepreneurship and their importance for the creative economy of the future. The discussion participants will consider how to create conditions for the introduction of technologies and the growth of the creative economy, while preserving Russia’s national cultural identity. The key event will be the plenary session ‘New Russian Cultural Code: The Art of Preserving, Rethinking, and Transforming’. The sessions will feature discussions about the most popular topics in the creative industries: the digitalization of languages, ethnocultural heritage and media, changes in creative spaces and their residents, the self-sufficiency of creative business, the creative economy of the regions, animation in the context of technology, changes in the musical landscape, the development of the gaming industry in the Far East, and the digital reality of cultural projects.

The following sessions are planned as part of the EEF business programme: ‘Industrial Partnerships in the Creative Economy: Can Technology Exist Without Creativity?’ and ‘Distributing Content in the Asia-Pacific Market: Adapting Strategies and Forming New Partnerships’. The participants will discuss modern scientific achievements and the adaptation of traditional ones to education, production, services, work, and communication, as well as the promotion of Russian cinematography projects in other countries.

Another key topic at the EEF 2024 will be cooperation between the Innosocium Foundation and the Presidential Grants Fund. The discussion platform ‘Sustainable Partnership. What Can Businesses and Non-Profits Do Today for a Better Tomorrow?’ will feature presentations by the heads of leading non-profit organizations that are successfully implementing social projects using grants from the Russian president. The discussion will focus on various public initiatives and proposals for implementing a sustainable business development strategy, the experience of philanthropists and businesses in protecting families, and the establishment of business ties between small businesses and non-profits.

 

The programme partner is VKontakte, the main social network of the event and a streaming service.

The Eastern Economic Forum will take place on 3–6 September 2024 on the campus of Far Eastern Federal University in Vladivostok.
