Experts from the BRICS countries are developing technologies of the future and strengthening interstate cooperation.

Participants of the BRICS League of Young Professionals from 9 countries are developing innovative approaches to life cycle management of engineering and industrial projects. The opportunity to assert themselves at a high level and learn from the experience of their foreign colleagues was provided by the International Engineering CASE-IN Championship.   

The BRICS League of Young Professionals is organized by the Reliable Change Foundation and the International Union of Instrument Makers and Information and Telecommunication Technology Specialists. The competition is supported by the Executive Committee of the Electric Power Council of the Commonwealth of Independent States, the Federal Agency for the Commonwealth of Independent States, Compatriots Living Abroad, and International Humanitarian Cooperation (Rossotrudnichestvo), the Russian Energy Agency of the Ministry of Energy of the Russian Federation, and the Alexander Gorchakov Public Diplomacy Fund. 

The project brought together more than 120 ambitious specialists under the age of 40 from the best companies in Brazil, India, China, South Africa, Morocco, Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia and Russia, said Artyom Korolev, founder of CASE-IN: "I am sure that by solving the tasks outlined at the highest level, they will not only be able to strengthen their professional competencies, but also They will also contribute to the development of key economic sectors and the technological progress of their countries. The final of the championship on May 18-23 in Moscow will bring together the best teams: it will traditionally serve as a platform for strengthening interstate cooperation and the internal personnel reserve, exchanging experience and innovative solutions for the development of friendly states, as well as implementing corporate initiatives of companies at the international level."

In the course of fulfilling the League's assignment, which corresponds to the main theme of the XIV CASE-IN championship "Technologies of the Future", youth teams develop innovative approaches to managing the lifecycle of engineering and industrial projects in the BRICS countries, combining the principles of circular economy, technological sovereignty and environmental responsibility. The organizers asked the contestants to choose a project in the industrial or energy sector (a new nuclear power plant, a metallurgical plant, a renewable energy park with energy storage, etc.), create a strategic roadmap and a business model with the possibility of further integration into the BRICS space, and propose interstate tools (for example, the structure of a typical "green" contract or a scheme for the operation of centers competencies) that will enable the implementation of the proposed process.

The authors of the best ideas will travel to the capital of Russia for the decisive competition of the season. The finalists will personally tell the industry community about their projects, as well as participate in educational and interactive events, and visit Moscow's industrial facilities and attractions. The reward for the winners and prize-winners of the League will be the prospects for career advancement and the implementation of their developments in real production.
