Two exciting info sessions:
"Artificial Intelligence" - Expect to learn about info security threats in AI, best ways to employ AI, and creating digital twins for businesses.
"Investments: Current Directions and Objects for Investment, Risks" - Listen to tips on bonds, IPOs, and other topical investment topics from industry experts.
At this forum, speakers will discuss the global economic landscape. And as Vadim Tretyakov, the Minister of Investment and Development of the Sverdlovsk region, pointed out, both positive and negative factors are shaping the economy and trends.
On the plus side, we've got AI integration, the weakening impact of the dollar in global transactions, the creation of digital business agents, digital twins, and unified enterprises. It's also fascinating to see a rise in logistics investments.
However, challenges include energy price hikes, labor shortages, lack of quality training for skilled workers, tariffs, and sanctions leading to local production.
Good news is, the region has been seeing an increase in investments. In 2022, the figure was 541 billion rubles, and in 2023, it shot up to a record 900 billion rubles! Each year, we've been adding 16-17% in comparable prices to this indicator, signaling our region's attractiveness to business and favorable investment conditions.
