PSB has become the general partner of the first Space Week in the history of Russia, the bank's press service reported.

"It is very important to talk about the bright successes that we can all be proud of, it is important to inspire the younger generation of our citizens to new achievements and move forward. Therefore, holding Space Week with large—scale events in all regions of the country is of strategic importance for the Russian space industry and the development of modern technological trends in general," said Peter Fradkov, Chairman of the PSB.

According to Dmitry Bakanov, CEO of Roscosmos State Corporation, "the general partnership with Space Week is not only a recognition of the significance of the event, but also a vivid example of how business and government together open up new horizons for the Russian space industry." "This partnership underlines the strategic importance of cooperation between the financial sector and the space industry for the development of the country," he said.

Space Week will be held from April 6 to April 12. The program includes hundreds of events across the country: from educational campaigns and scientific forums to cultural and sporting events. In 2026, the event is timed to coincide with the 65th anniversary of Yuri Gagarin's flight into space.
