Current news and vivid stories – on Artem Korolev's social networks

We have prepared another digest of news from Artem Korolev's social networks. We tell you what plans the founder and co-chairman of CASE-IN, director of the Reliable Change Foundation, implemented last week. 

In the first publication of the week, Artyom opened it the nuances of preparing for the final of the CASE-IN championship, which will be held on May 20-22, 2026 in Moscow. "The final CASE-IN from the outside is a vivid defense, clever speeches and a sea of emotions. And two weeks before that, this is the headquarters where we turn chaos into a system."- he noted. 

The main stages of pre-final preparation: 

- final venues: from the entrance group to 12 classrooms with a single technical solution;

- selection of experts: only the top;

- working with teams: from the dress code to the final assignment;

- purchases: thousands of badges, cups and medals.

On the eve of the three-day final, the founder of CASE-IN recalled a story from 2013, how he, along with colleagues from the Ministry of Energy, prepared for the first final of the CASE-IN and developed a case on the Korkin section. 

"The author of the case was my great friend and one of the first people who believed and supported the champion at the time.t – Ivan Kurta, at that time a postgraduate student at St. Petersburg Mining University, and now a Candidate of Technical Sciences, associate professor and head of the Directorate of Additional Education and Industry Partnership at St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, – said Artem Korolev. – We developed a task and sent it to the participants. And then one of the participants turns to our organizing committee and says, "Why do you have part of the text in a foreign language?" I open the case, and Vanya decided at the last moment to give some slides in English and, surprisingly, also in German."

Then the director of the foundation announced A competition on the occasion of the launch of the Youth Global Forecast of Energy Development, whose participants build scientifically based models of how the fuel and energy complex will develop until 2035. The results will be announced at the Russian Energy Week Youth Day, and the winner will receive a book from Artyom's archive. 

Artyom Korolev moderated the round table "Youth of the Caucasus: Energy of the new Economy" at the III Caucasian Investment Forum in Mineralnye Vody at the end of April 2026. shared with your audience: "We found out that education should be linked to the economy. 42% of young people and 67% of experts say that a balance of theory and practice is needed, with an emphasis on the real needs of the region. At the same time, 34% of young people admit that they have to finish their studies after university. You also wondered what prevents student ideas from becoming a business? The main barrier is the lack of start–up capital (78% of young people, 50% of experts). In second place is the difficulty of finding partners and clients (45% and 67%). Bureaucracy and risk aversion are also at the top."
