The Day of
the Kaluga Region is being held at the RUSSIA EXPO on January 12. The region
presented the main cultural and historical sights and its achievements in
various spheres. Much attention is paid to the development of vocational
education in the region. In September 2023, with the support of Russian
President Vladimir Putin, Russia's first Technopark in the field of vocational
education was opened.
"We
build houses, we build roads, kindergartens and schools, we build enterprises,
sports palaces and theaters, and all this - thanks to the support of our
President and the Government of our country, thanks to the national projects.
And, of course, all this is impossible without people who love our Motherland
and our region very much", - said Governor Vladislav Shapsha.
Vladimir
Putin also supported the idea of creating an international cluster of nuclear
education on the basis of the Obninsk Institute of Nuclear Power Engineering of
the National Research Nuclear University MEPhI. At the same time, the
construction of a new Rosatom plant for the production of radiopharmaceuticals
has begun on the basis of the Obninsk Karpov Research and Development Institute
for Physical Chemistry.
"On
the basis of the Technical Academy of Rosatom located in Obninsk, which is the
head center for training specialists of all foreign projects of the company,
the International Nuclear Education Center will be built. We together with the
Director General of the Corporation Alexei Evgenyevich Likhachev went to the
President of Russia with this idea, he supported this idea, and so it will be
done", - said Vladislav Shapsha.
Of great
importance for the region is the development of the Mercator enterprise - the
