23 June 2015, Tuesday
On June 23, at a session of the Economic Council under Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Tatarstan dedicated to scientific-technical and innovative policy of the republic, Interim President of the Republic of Tatarstan Rustam Minnikhanov said that in current foreign political situation support of Russian technologies and science is important for national security.
“It is important to provide technological advance that will enable producing modern competitive products and services. However, these resources are not always used efficiently. Low innovative activity of enterprises and their passivity in using results of intellectual activity are being observed. Almost one third of all received patents belong to OAO “Tatneft” Oil Company. Only half of received patents are really used, which means that each specific invention is not prepared for industrial application and its incompliance with manufacturing requirements. In the long run, it leads to inefficient use of money, sometimes budget funds,” Rustam Minnikhanov stated.
“Research and technological development requires significant investments. In these terms enterprises should use all support tools on both federal and regional level. This includes federal grant programmes, support programmes for institutes of development, such as Skolkovo and Rosnano. Tatarstan Ministry of economic should intensify explanatory work at organisations. It is important to coordinate technological and innovative work in the republic,” Minnikhanov said.
According to Rustam Minnikhanov, special attention should be paid to development of new programmes of additional education for children. He reminded that during St.Petersburg economic forum Tatarstan signed an agreement with the Association of strategic investments and Russian Ministry of Education and Science and became a pilot region to implement the project “New model of additional education of children”.
“Our task is to create a comprehensive support and maintenance system for innovative projects at all stages, from the idea to commercial results. I am sure that the increase of efficiency of research and technological development will help solving issues of import substitution and formation of innovative economy,” Minnikhanov summarized.
