The Krasnoyarsk Territory is a visionary region, where management solutions and models are being formed that are in demand throughout the country," said Marina Mongush, President of ANO Creative Economy.

"In 2021, the Krasnoyarsk Territory became the first region of the country to host the Russian Creative Week regional forum. The key objective of the forum is to bring together industry leaders from different regions, entrepreneurs, and creators to share experiences, synchronize management approaches, and develop strategies for the development of the creative economy. 20,000 people are already employed in these industries in our region.
