The CASE-IN Championship announced the theme of the new season

Moscow summed up the results of the XI "CASE-IN" season, which traditionally ended with the Autumn Cup. 5,200 people took part in the final competition of the outgoing year. Only 60 engineering solutions were presented to the experts in the final. The success story of CASE-IN has been updated with new names – 15 teams of winners and prize-winners of the Autumn Cup have deservedly become an integral part of a large professional community.

"Every year we develop our project for participants and partners. We will continue to do this from season to season, because we know that CASE-IN participants are the largest professional community. Tens of thousands of young people, marked with a quality mark - by winning or participating in the championship. Our participants are the most motivated and focused on results and work in their specialty. Today, your CASE-IN colleagues are scattered all over Russia, studying, teaching, working, managing, and you, dear finalists, are joining their ranks," said Artem Korolev, founder of the championship and CEO of the Reliable Change Charitable Foundation.

Participation in competitions has already become a kind of career springboard for the most active and talented contestants. One in three students goes to university, one in four students finds a job, and one in two young professionals is promoted in their company. 

Every season, there are more and more people who want to test their strength and improve their professional skills and competencies.  In the XI season, almost 13,500 people took advantage of this opportunity.

The XII season of "CASE-IN" promises to be no less vivid, exciting and numerous. The main theme of the 2024 competition has already been announced - "Lean Manufacturing". The relevance of choosing future topics for the creation of engineering cases is dictated in response to modern production needs and priority areas of economic development.  Russian President Vladimir Putin, speaking at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, stressed that one of the next areas of supply-side economics is to increase the efficiency of the real sector and the service sector, increase labor productivity in the country by eliminating bottlenecks, eliminating losses, and implementing optimal solutions. "All this is described by the term "lean manufacturing". The implementation of the principles of careful, efficient production should gain momentum. And not only in the basic sectors of the economy, but also in other sectors," the President stressed.

The practice of holding international championships will also be continued in the new season. The first competitions among young specialists from the CIS countries started this year and received positive feedback from participants and experts.  It is also planned to extend the positive experience to students and launch national championships.

For reference: The International Engineering CASE-IN Championship is an international competition system for solving engineering cases among schoolchildren, students and young specialists in the fuel and energy and mineral resource industries. 

The organizers of the Championship are the Reliable Change Foundation, the Non-profit Partnership Youth Forum of Mining Leaders, ANO Russia – Land of Opportunities and AstraLogica LLC. 

The national partners of the Championship are the Ministry of Energy of the Russian Federation, the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation, the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation, the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection of the Russian Federation, ANO Russia – the Land of Opportunities, as well as the Federal Agency for Youth Affairs (Rosmolodezh) and the Federal State Budgetary Institution Center for Assistance to Young Professionals.
