"Very cool": skier Yelena Välbe about the pavilions of the RUSSIA EXPO
The International RUSSIA EXPO at VDNH was visited by Soviet and Russian skier, president of the Cross-Country Skiing Federation Yelena Välbe. According to the sportswoman, the scale of the event is impressive and makes one proud.
The athlete believes that here people can plan travel routes around the country, thanks to the visual stands of the regions.
"Before this, I watched the Exposition coverage on TV and thought that what was happening might be slightly exaggerated. But it wasn’t. It’s very cool — I’m proud of the country, there’s much to see", — said Yelena Välbe.
At the exposition the guests were shown the movie «White Snow», which is dedicated to Välbe’s triumphant victory at the World Skiing Championships in 1997.
At that time, the Russian athlete managed to win gold medals in all five races. She believes that this picture is a cautionary tale for the younger generation.
It should be reminded that the International RUSSIA EXPO is held at the VDNH in Moscow. It presents the achievements of all 89 regions of the country, leading federal departments, corporations and public organizations. Meetings with famous persons, masterclasses, lectures and a lot of other events are held for guests.
These platforms could be built around individual digital profiles containing verified records of people's education, the skills they have acquired and their professional experience.
The session was held on 11 November at the National Centre RUSSIA as part of Platform Economy Day.
The industry group's estimates suggest that platform development between 2025 and 2036 could help bring the earnings of more than 7.5 million people into the formal economy.
