The Department of Science, Industrial Policy and Entrepreneurship (DNIPiP for short) is located in Moscow at Voznesensky Pereulok 22. The nearest metro stations are Okhotny Ryad and Tverskaya.
The Department is inherently considered an industry body subordinate to the Moscow Government and represents the executive branch of the capital. Since February 2017, Fursin Alexey Anatolevich has been in the position of the head of the Department.
Key tasks of the Department
Considering the activities of the Department on a global scale, we can distinguish its main function - this is the preparation, development, as well as the implementation of plans and the overall political and economic course, which Moscow adheres to. The main field of work is presented in such a field as industry. Increasing the share of the industrial sector and improving the quality of products implies not only the development of zones in which the city's industry is concentrated, but also the determination of what exactly they will specialize in.
The Department of Science, Industrial Policy and Entrepreneurship, in addition to providing various public services, also improves the investment climate in order to attract the attention of Russian and foreign investors to new projects and developments. The key tasks of the Department also include the development of scientific activities associated with innovations, new technologies and entrepreneurship, namely, its material, consulting support.
Key areas of work
It would be impossible to assess the significance of the Department without defining and concretizing the goals of its work and the activity in which they appear. So, for example, the development of scientific high-tech activities is manifested in the construction of various technology parks and industrial parks engaged in the implementation of innovative projects, as well as in the improvement of economic clusters. The Department of Science, Industrial Policy and Entrepreneurship of Moscow is also involved in the approval of plans for research and technological work.
The department actively supports small and medium-sized and influential companies and organizations. The creation of a favorable climate for conducting active and productive entrepreneurial activities is combined with a reduction in administrative barriers and productive work on optimizing the mechanism for providing public services. All entrepreneurs, beginners and experienced, when applying to the Department can expect to receive various preferences, subsidies and benefits.
Department: Innovation and Youth
In addition to sponsoring and providing all kinds of support to serious innovative projects, the Department of Science, Industrial Policy and Entrepreneurship sets as one of the priority tasks the education of the young generation in the spirit of a new, high-tech time. For this, in Moscow and in other cities of Russia, a lot of children's technology parks have been formed, which give young people not only a high-quality and at the same time free education, but also the possibility of prestigious employment in the future.
In Moscow, under the guardianship of the Department, there are more than 10 such industrial parks. The most famous of them are Caliber and BYTIC. Children's Technopark "Caliber" provides educational programs in the field of computer animation and 3D-modeling for students of adolescence. The educational course is designed for 36 academic hours, namely - one three-hour lesson per week.
The children's technology park “BAYTIK” is the second of the most famous technology parks in Russia, which oversees the Department of Science, Industrial Policy and Entrepreneurship of the city of Moscow. Education in it is longer than in Caliber, and takes either 1 or 3 years (depending on the chosen direction). Annually, training is provided to more than 400 students who are already 14 years old, but not 18. The main areas: programming, robotics, video editing, 3D-modeling and some others.
