Jam Session ‘Good Morning, My Country!’ in the framework of the RCB Morning Call Project

22 April 2020
Джем-сейшн «Доброе утро, страна!» в рамках проекта НКБ «Весенняя перекличка»

Date: April 23, 2020

Time: 10:00–12:00

The Russian Convention Bureau with the support of the Roscongress Foundation will hold a talk show on using regional potential to overcome the crisis and restore the economy efficiently as exemplified by the sector that has suffered most heavily because of the COVID-19 pandemic — the convention and exhibition industry.

Regions represented by speakers rank so high in the Russian Regions Event Potential Rating 2019 for a reason. Of course, it’s the result of a well-balanced policy and reasonable development strategy of the region, as well as some efforts of the local authorities aimed at supporting this area. Heads of Investment Promotion Agencies of the Sverdlovsk Region, the Krasnodar Territory and the Republic of Tatarstan will tell the audience how a synergy of business and government finds its way in the current situation, and which reserves of the past will help to enter a new stage of development in the future.

The regional potential comprehensively described in the Event Passport should become a platform for restoration and economic ‘rehabilitation’ of territories. In the framework of the talk show new Event Passports created for two regions — the Sverdlovsk Region and the Krasnodar Territory — will be presented. Also, speakers will share on which areas will turn into key vectors for revival of the sector.

· A leader is the title that needs not only to be deserved, but to be proved as well. What challenges does a leader face in the context of a complicated economic situation?

· How will the Event Potential Rating change it the end of 2020?

· Pandemic will go away, but events will remain — what areas of today’s activities will help making a hit in the future event market?

These and other issues are to be discussed by participants of the talk show. Also, support measures for the event industry in regions and participants’ cases on ‘surviving’ will be covered.

Participants of the Talk Show:

· Alexander Stuglev, CEO, Roscongress Foundation

· Alexander Porodnov, CEO, ANO ‘Investment Promotion Agency of the Sverdlovsk Region’

· Taliya Minullina, Head of the Tatarstan Investment Development Agency

· Pavel Mayorov, CEO of NPJSC ‘Krasnodar Region Development Corporation’
