GC “Beshtau” opened a named auditorium in the Knowledge Center “Mashuk”: education as a fulcrum of the future
The Mashuk Knowledge Center held a grand opening of a specialized auditorium, created with the support of the Beshtau Group of Companies. This is not just a learning space – it is a point of intersection of technologies, meanings and a common belief that education is a key resource for the country’s development.
The auditorium was named after the company and decorated with the participation of the Beshtau team. The space includes a demonstration fund and a work place equipped with modern equipment of our own production: monoblocks and personal computers produced in Russia with a high share of localization. Particular attention is drawn to the decorative map of Russia, assembled from the keys of the Beshtau keyboards – as a symbol of engineering precision and digital unity of the country.
“Beshtau” invests a lot in education, and we believe that this is an investment in the future. When we saw how the Mashuk Knowledge Center works with future teachers, mentors, organizers, we realized that we simply have to be close. Moreover, both geographically and culturally, Mashuk and Beshtau have always looked at each other. And now, it seems, we are simply continuing this thousand-year line – already at the level of ideas and deeds,” — noted the founder of the Beshtau Group of Companies, Vladimir Kuznetsov.
The partnership between the companies is not limited to one audience. Previously, Beshtau held mentoring programs for future engineers at the center, organized tours of the production facility, and its employees gave lectures and master classes. Now this collaboration has a permanent physical and symbolic address – an auditorium where technology meets meaning.
Our immediate plans include holding project intensives, workshops and joint educational programs for students, mentors and representatives of the IT industry.
“Today we increasingly talk about the need for comprehensive interaction between education and business to solve practical problems, eliminate the shortage of personnel and develop the country’s economy. The opening of the Beshtau audience at the Mashuk Knowledge Center is a striking example of such synergy. Now our participants will be able to learn more about the achievements of the Russian technology industry. Particularly noteworthy is the map of Russia, assembled from elements of the manufacturer’s products, which symbolizes our request for technological sovereignty. Together with our partners, we will continue to work on common educational projects that will help domestic developments gain popularity and enter the market. I am sure that our colleagues from Beshtau, being ideological allies, will support our ideas,” noted Anton Serikov, General Director of the Mashuk Knowledge Center and Deputy General Director of the Russian Knowledge Society.
