Employees of the SEZ “Avangard” presented their project with honors and talked about the methods of investment attractiveness of the Omsk region

Employees of the Avangard SEZ were trained under the program “The ESG Agenda: mechanisms for increasing the investment attractiveness of territories with preferential treatment”.

The operators of the program are the Institute of Knowledge Economics with the support of the Association of Clusters, Technoparks and SEZ of Russia.

Recall that the training took place in a distance format. Leading practitioners from government agencies, specialists from large consulting companies specializing in the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals, as well as representatives of sites that have implemented the ESG model shared practical tools to increase the investment attractiveness of territories with preferential treatment through the introduction of sustainable development principles.

So, this year 10 specialists from 7 regions of Russia have been trained. Yesterday, at the face-to-face defense, the employees of the SEZ “Avangard” presented their project with honors and talked about the methods of investment attractiveness of the Omsk region. Also, as part of the educational program, SEZ specialists visited the territory of the capital’s technopark “Slava” with an introductory tour.

“Today, the use of ESG principles is a global trend that is supported by the Russian business community. The principles of ESG include caring for the environment, responsible attitude towards employees and customers, transparent work of the company and participation in charitable initiatives. For the specialists of the SEZ “Avangard”, this training was useful. The acquired knowledge and competencies will allow the SEZ to attract new investments and develop industrial production, taking into account the new knowledge and competencies acquired,” the director of the special economic zone shared Victor Sobolev.
