Mikhail Mishustin’s opening
remarks: Good
afternoon, colleagues. We have now
taken a close look at samples of production goods, manufactured by various
division of Russian research, science and technological centres. We are, of course, witnessing obvious progress here. The President
has named technological leadership as a national goal. Of course, it would be
impossible to achieve national development goals, unless we ensure independence
in the field of electronic machine-building and engineering, as well as the main spheres linked with samples, displayed here today. We have also
seen devices that can already accomplish the most complicated objectives,
including in the field of artificial intelligence, big data analysis and other
vitally important spheres. This is an essential foundation for intelligent
management systems, test simulation platforms, for making forecasts and facilitating independent decision-making processes. The introduction of these
technologies makes it possible to spend less time and money on creating any
high-tech products. It is
important to continue creating favourable conditions for state-of-the-art
engineering solutions and to actively use our scientific and educational
potential and resources for catching up with rivals and for competing
successfully in new promising spheres that are only emerging so far. Young
scientists discussed these issues today, while unveiling various aspects of their work.
Today, we will discuss strategic issues related to expanding the capacity for high-performance computations for AI and a super-computer infrastructure.
Our meeting is taking place at the All-Russia Scientific Research Institute of Experimental Physics. It has some unique, advanced equipment that makes it possible to generate most daring ideas and put them into practice.
This and other Russian organisations devise up-to-date elements of photonics and microelectronics, as well as components.
The key condition of our further advances is having our own competences for the production of equipment and element basis, as well as in the area of materials and chemistry.
Russia is implementing a comprehensive electronic engineering programme. Earlier today, we listened to a number of relevant reports. This programme embraces all industries involved in producing this output. It is planned to create equipment, materials, chemicals, electronics design tools, with account taken of requirements signaled by domestic businesses, of course.
We should also prioritise efforts to boost competitiveness of Russian lithography. Today, we have seen how the work to create Russian lithographs is progressing.
I also would like to mention the photonics development programme that is due to run until the end of 2030. We discussed achievements made by this sector, when we were meeting with you here in Sarov last year. Currently, we are organising the output of Russian matrix-assisted photo-receiving devices. Plants are being modernised for batch production. Today, we also inquired where we stand in this regard.
Russian specialists are pursuing the ambitious goal of increasing the share of Russian photonics on the domestic market from 35 to 90 percent, and the localisation of these complicated, science-intensive products – from 15 to 70 percent. This is a highly difficult task.
Today,
we will discuss steps necessary for carrying out this task.
