“We need to take the preparations as seriously as possible. I know that the proposed key theme of the event is science and innovation as drivers of economic growth of the Union State. We have something to offer to our partners (the success of TIBO 2023 confirms this) and there is also something we can learn from Russian scientists,” the head of state emphasized.
Aleksandr Lukashenko noted that the upcoming forum is also an opportunity to put forward new business ideas, and a place to showcase innovative solutions and sign major contracts. “It is necessary to communicate our concepts, plans and the things we are really good at to the general public. Maybe it is already time to invite partners from other countries to participate?” he asked.
