At the session, potential investors will have an opportunity to learn about promising projects, including those in the field of urban environment. Another activity planned is a visit to the Irkutsk Polymer Plant.

In Irkutsk, the forum starts on October 1, focusing on efficient business management in times of change. More than 100 speakers – corporate representatives, academia, and professional community members – are expected to contribute. The first event on the program is a plenary session titled “From theory to practice: Application of modern technologies,” where the government and business representatives will discuss integration of AI, machine learning, robotics engineering, and other digital solutions into production processes.

The second day of the BRIF, October 2, will be dedicated to efficiency. Talks will be delivered in six sections: Operations Efficiency Enhancement, Impactful HR Solutions, Digital Tools for Efficiency, and others. Special attention is expected to be drawn to the Efficient HR Solutions section that will be held in the form of a battle discussion, where top managers will look into efficient interaction with HR experts.

The Safety Day will be held on October 3: practicing professionals will share experience in risk management, business continuity, and new opportunities. Eight sections spanning topics from safety to assets insurance protection are scheduled.

The BRIF’24 will close off on October 4 with strategic sessions focusing on efficiency, safety, and continuity. In addition, the activities of the BRIF Youth Day will be held, gathering more than 300 young professionals, including engineers and managers. Participants will share ideas and know-how and use broad networking opportunities. It will also be the time to announce the results of the PRO North Youth contest and present a new volume of the comic book Big Little Lena based on stories created by schoolchildren in the Ust-Kutsky and Kirensky districts.
