October 7, 2021

The youth section REW Junior will bring together high school students, world business leaders, and government officials in Moscow on 15 October 2021 as part of Youth Day during Russian Energy Week. The section is being organized by the Content Foundation for the Development of Expert and Analytical Activities, which will host the event as part of the Point Junior discussion and communication platform with the support of the Innopraktika non-state development institution and the Roscongress Foundation. The event will bring together schoolchildren, prominent statesmen, and representatives of major energy, oil and gas, and petrochemical companies to discuss the global energy agenda and the future of the industry in Russia.

During REW Junior, teenagers will take part in an educational eco-quest, where they will gain basic knowledge and skills in environmental safety, as well as a panel discussion that will be attended by representatives of major industrial corporations, where they will discuss career guidance, motivation within the industry, and how to choose a professional path in the energy industry.

Content Foundation Director Elena Sokolova stressed the importance of the event in terms of interaction among fuel and energy corporations and the younger generation: “Today, children are already determining their future profession at school, and companies are extremely interested in establishing communication to attract talented specialists in the future. That is why we decided to create a platform for a dialogue between the younger generation and the biggest industrial corporations in the country.”

In addition, schoolchildren will take part in events held in the format of an open dialogue, where they will meet with Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak, Russian Presidential Aide Maxim Oreshkin, Russian Minister of Economic Development Maxim Reshetnikov, Rosatom State Corporation Director General Alexey Likhachev, and Gazprom Neft CEO Alexander Dyukov.

Russian Energy Week is being organized by the Russian Ministry of Energy, the Roscongress Foundation, and the Moscow Government.

18 November 2024 Russian Energy Week 2025 to be held on 15–17 October

“The eighth Russian Energy Week International Forum will be held on 15–17 October in Moscow. The Energy Strategy of the Russian Federation, which facilitates the creation of benchmarks to advance the energy sector as part of the Russian economy’s transition to an innovative development path, ensures the extension of the time horizon to 2030 in accordance with the new tasks and priorities of the country’s development. Every year at REW, we have the opportunity to witness how accurate these benchmarks are, and to adjust them accordingly. The Forum will feature sessions on the efficient use of natural energy resources and the development of the energy sector’s potential for sustainable economic growth, improving the quality of life of the country’s population and helping to strengthen its international economic position. I am confident that Russia’s partners, including its new ones in the BRICS alliance, as well as the African countries which confirmed their interest in working with Russia at the recently concluded First Ministerial Conference of the Russia–Africa Partnership Forum, will play an active part in organizing and holding the Forum,” said Anton Kobyakov, Adviser to the President of the Russian Federation and Executive Secretary of the REW Organizing Committee.
