St. Petersburg International Economic Forum is a global event. The meeting of managers, state managers. According to official data, representatives of 145 countries, about 19 thousand people participated in the work of SPIEF. The event was so ambitious that every participant could find answers to the questions with which he came to the forum, at any level: at the micro level, at the level of interaction between the business community and the state, and at the level of interaction between states. Including in geopolitical directions. This is the development of the EurAsEC and the European Union, as well as the relationship between these supranational structures.
More than 142 sessions were held at the Petersburg Forum. The UN Secretary General was present at the opening of the forum, President of Russia Vladimir Putin, President of the People's Republic of China Xi Jinping attended the plenary session of the forum.
According to the speaker, there were acquaintances between the heads of state administration, the heads of enterprises, transnational companies, and strategic development agencies at the forum.
According to Alexander Korshunov, the forum participants were very open and always ready to share their experience and knowledge. This openness added emotional and festive background to the event in terms of an abundance of ideas and breakthrough projects.
Laws of countries that aspire to this should be ready to all these new technologies. All these areas should be regulated by law. As an example, Alexander Korshunov cited the tests of an unmanned vehicle in Russia. When the device was tested at the test site, there were no questions, but as soon as it came to driving through the streets of the settlement, dissatisfied people appealed to the prosecutor’s office and the project was suspended because the movement of unmanned vehicles was not regulated by the current legislation of the Russian Federation.
The second message that our delegation drew from this forum: at many sessions, representatives of government agencies, State Duma deputies, representatives of strategic research centers said that it was not enough to create perfect legislation, it is necessary to create an atmosphere for the business community. So that an entrepreneur feels that the state treats him as a partner.
At the site where the governors of the Russian Federation talked about how they achieved high level of development in their region, there were representatives of the best twenty from the subjects of the Russian Federation. Each governor shared his experience in the development of the business community and what activities were carried out at the level of government, so that investors would come to the region and the business community carried out their activities freely and openly.
