– The forum is a good opportunity for establishing new contacts and preserving old ones

Rosatom has huge experience of cooperation with other industries. For example, for 40 years already our institute has been cooperating with the space industry: we have been making nuclear power systems for them — 30 of them have been sent to space. We have big experience of cooperation with submarine fleet: our technologies have been used for the production of submarine reactors.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union many contacts were lost.

And this forum is an excellent opportunity for establishing new contacts and preserving the old ones. Of course, we need state support: we can’t unite and do something without financing. So, if the government helps us, we will be able to unite and to set many projects working for the benefit of the state and the business, if the latter shows interest in any of them.
