As part of the forum, an exhibition was arranged that showcased companies working on high technology in the fields of digital data transfer and protection, biology and new materials.
High tech projects require venture investments, therefore business incubators and technology transfer centers are constructed in Tomsk and researchers' occupational conditions are improved. Companies jointly with research and development institutes arrange presentations for angel investors.
