A three-day strategic session “Production Specialization of Tomsk Region 2035” was held in the Tomsk Region.

“Our Tomsk region differs from others by universities and high-tech enterprises. What tools will allow us to strengthen these positions? Certainly, the President’s national projects, and mainly the “Science” national project, where we seeking to take the status of a world-class scientific and educational complex, ”the head of the region emphasized.

“There are three main conclusions that we have made at, commented Andrey Antonov, Deputy Governor of the Tomsk Region for Economics. - First of all, we need to draw up a package of products that are significant on a national and global scale and deploy the appropriate infrastructure for their production.

Secondly, we have a common understanding that entering the market is possible only through cooperation. And finally, we are united in the fact that today we need communities, not industries. ” According to him, the next step will be the preparation of projects for scaling up entrepreneurial cooperation and the adoption of federal decisions.
