"Dialogues about the Future with Valery Fedorov" to be held at the National Centre RUSSIA

On 18 September at 19:00, the National Centre RUSSIA will host the special event "Dialogues about the Future with Valery Fedorov". The theme of the upcoming discussion is "The Future of Innovation".

The event will also explore the successful "route" of innovation using the creation of a quantum computer as an example: how the quantum revolution began, where the idea came from, how it was implemented, and what the realisation of this technological breakthrough means for Russia and the world. At the heart of the conversation lies the study "Almost in a Whisper", dedicated to the phenomenon of visionaries in the IT industry. The questions to be raised at the meeting include: why do Russian IT leaders rarely talk about the future, and is it possible to learn to dream out loud?

A separate part of the discussion will focus specifically on the story of creating a quantum computer: how the quantum revolution began, where the idea originated, how it was carried out, and what the implementation of this technological breakthrough changes for Russia and the world.

The moderator of the event is Valery Fedorov, Director General of VCIOM and Dean of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Mass Communications of the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation.

Speakers:

— Gleb Kuznetsov, political scientist;

— Ruslan Yunusov, co-founder of the Russian Quantum Centre, adviser to the Director General of Rosatom State Corporation.
