The remote entry stage was set as a competition of short films on business innovations, history of scientific research and discovery, various aspects of science, and video essays on popular science topics.

During the two days, the film crews will be tasked to create films about the youth innovation centers of the Penza region: “NanoElectroLab,” “INVIS,” “Act,” “TechnoArt,” “A Step Towards Future,” “From Idea To Model.”
