The architecture of the business program of the Future Technologies Forum-2025 has been published

The official website of the Future Technologies Forum published the architecture of the business program. The event will be held in Moscow on February 20-21, 2025. This year's Future Technologies Forum will be dedicated to the theme "New Materials and Chemistry". Discussions will focus on the development of the new materials industry and the application of its achievements in various industries and economies.

"Ensuring technological independence and the formation of new markets in the direction of new materials and chemistry is one of the tasks in achieving technological leadership, one of the national development goals of the Russian Federation until 2030 and in the future until 2036. A corresponding national project has been developed, and all key players - representatives of science, business, and the state - are involved in solving the problem. The Future Technologies Forum, dedicated to new materials and chemistry, will be a key platform for discussing the necessary measures to achieve the national development goals, as well as for demonstrating breakthrough achievements in this area," said Anton Kobyakov, Advisor to the President of the Russian Federation, Executive Secretary of the Organizing Committee for the preparation and holding of the Future Technologies Forum.

The Forum program will be divided into four thematic blocks: "Chemistry and High-Purity Substances", "Modern Materials and Technologies", "New Horizons" and "Ecosystem".

During the expert discussions of the "Chemistry and High-Purity Substances" block they will discuss production and import substitution of basic chemical products, as well as the development of high-tech chemistry - development of new generation materials and their application in microelectronics, catalytic systems, production of environmentally safe fertilizers and other high-tech industries. Particular attention will be paid to the creation of chemical production chains, which will enable the production of new materials that will ensure import-independence of the country. Discussions will also touch upon "green chemistry" - optimization of chemical processes to protect the environment.

The track "Modern Materials and Technologies" will be devoted to the application of new materials in the development of nature-like technologies, nuclear energy, transportation engineering, and biomedicine. Discussions will be held on the use of frost-resistant and durable materials in the development of Arctic territories, on the role of new materials in the industrial implementation of additive technologies.

Discussions in the direction "New Horizons" will touch upon the development of the latest materials for advanced industries - high-performance polymers for regenerative medicine, nuclear, oil and gas, space industries, nanomaterials for energy, "smart" materials capable of changing their properties depending on the conditions, quantum and metamaterials with unique properties that do not exist in nature. They will also discuss digital materials science and new methods of materials research with the help of "megasciences" complexes.

The Ecosystem block will cover the topics of regulation and standardization, application of information technologies, creation of infrastructure and training of scientific and engineering personnel for the industry of new materials.

The business program will also include an open dialog "State - Enterprises", dedicated to the establishment of new production chains in the field of new materials and chemistry, and a discussion panel "Scientific Achievements Inspired by Science Fiction".

Participants of the Future Technologies Forum from among Russian high-tech companies will present the latest achievements in the field of chemistry and new materials at the exhibition, which will run at the venue throughout the days of the event.

Ahead of the Forum, a thematic scientific conference will be held: leading Russian and foreign scientists will discuss promising research in the field of new materials and key trends in this area.
