A meeting of the Organizing Committee for the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) 2025 was held in Moscow, chaired by Maxim Oreshkin, deputy chief of staff of the Russian Presidential Administration and chair of the SPIEF Organizing Committee.
“The forum encompasses key areas including technology, education, logistics, trade, investment, and finance. The participation of international organizations such as BRICS, SCO, and EAEU is particularly significant. Their presence facilitates effective partnerships, deepens economic cooperation, and helps formulate joint strategies to overcome global challenges and achieve sustainable development,” Oreshkin emphasized.
Anton Kobyakov, presidential advisor and executive secretary of the forum’s Organizing Committee, highlighted the ongoing promotion of SPIEF-2025, with outreach sessions already planned in India, the UAE, Malaysia, Thailand, and Africa. “The forum remains one of the leading international platforms for discussing sustainable development, digitalization, and global cooperation,” Kobyakov stated.
