Plenary session. Future Market Unicorns

20.10.2023
14:00 - 15:30
Plenary hall
After the “perfect storm,” there comes a period of rethinking and restarting vital processes. Modern entrepreneurs live in the future, but today is a critical time to place a bet that will pay off in a few years. Russia has a long way to go before it can achieve the result, but we can define the concentrations of resources, investments and efforts, and areas in which the appearance of Russian “unicorns” is expected.

The discussion focuses on tomorrow’s businesses and products. Products that are made in Russia and will be in demand on the global market. This is the foundation of Russia’s export potential for the near future.

What determines the success of an entrepreneurial initiative and which factors influence the likelihood of the emergence of Russian unicorn companies in the future? How to become a disruptive exporter? What strategies are capable of adapting to new geopolitical realities in a short span of time and doing the impossible — finding a niche in the foreign markets?
