On Septermber 22st Open University Skolkovo hosted yet another SkolkovoDay event for a group of MBA students from Italy, China, South Africa, Dominican Republic and Turkey as a part of a one-week international prgoram organized by MIRBIS business school.

Event's program included visiting the premises of OC Technopark where Skolkovo experts - Julia Tolkishevskaya, alalyst at the International Cooperation Deparment and Maria Vereschak, specialist of Technopark Consulting Center - gave an insight on what Skolkovo Innovation Center is about and what the next steps of developement and construction are. As expected the main question the participants had was about becoming a Skolkovo resident, the procedures and benifits. After the presentations made by Skolkovo experts there was a pitch session where international guests talked about the projects/ideas they came up with while working in small groups of 3-5 people after meeting In Russia for the first time. As Julia Tolkishevskaya noted all projects discussed can fit in the competence of IT Cluster at Skolkovo.

After the hot discussions of the projects and a short Q&A session Daria Avdulova, event manager at Open University Skolkovo, invited guests for a sightseeing tour across the territory of Skolkovo Innovation Center wich ended at the Hypercube's rooftop. Unfortunately the weather did not alow to spend a lot of time overlooking the already built construction sites and the tour quickly relocated to Hypercube's cafe where all guests appreciated a cup of hot coffee (note from the author: it was a pleasure to recieve a compliment for good coffee quility at the end ot the day).

SkolkovoDay are one-day programs in Skolkovo for youth delegations (scientific, business activity aspects), that visit Russia.
