Greetings to the 10th St Petersburg International Labour Forum

The message reads, in part:

"Over the past years, your forum has become an influential and powerful platform in Russia for discussing key aspects shaping the labour market regulation and human capital development agenda.

I am pleased to note that your discussions are founded on serious research, analysis, and prognostic data. This fundamental approach is exceptionally valuable today, as it consolidates the efforts of the state, business, research and academic communities around common goals and objectives. Your top priorities include improving educational and professional standards, deepening the integration between the demands of the labour market and the training system for qualified and competitive professionals. And of course, it is particularly important to focus on the broad implementation of HR technologies and digital solutions, increasing productivity, and regulating migration.

I am confident that the forum will offer a creative and constructive environment for the participants to exchange positive experience and best practices."
