The sessions under the first pillar -

Securing the Future

- will examine major

shifts underway in the global economy and their impact on the political

economies and societies at large. The increasing role of emerging economic

powers in developing regional markets will be discussed in the 'region-omics'

series.

The sessions under

Realizing

Russia

's Potential

pillar will be of particular

interest to the participants who are concerned with Russian political and

economic affairs. The Forum 2012 will provide a unique opportunity to engage

with the new Government of the

Russian Federation

as the country takes steps

to reinforce its reform agenda in the post-election period. This pillar will include

a number of briefings by the members of the newly-formed Russian

government.

Leadership in Focus

- a series of one-on-one conversations with leaders from

government, finance, technology, media and the arts - is a new format of

sessions introduced in 2012. These sessions will feature Henry Kissinger,

Yevgeny Primakov, Gerard Lopez, Lloyd Blankfein, Arkady Volozh, and other

leaders, and will examine the forces - and people - reshaping our world, and will

seek to identify the skills that are needed to succeed in a rapidly shifting

environment.

Sessions of the

Responding to Impact Technologies

pillar will explore how

policymakers and business leaders are responding to the ongoing and

accelerating technical advances world wide, and will include presentations of

Russian Breakthrough Technologies.

This year SPIEF will provide a SPIEF

mobile app

experience during the Forum.

Available for download from the Apple App

Store and Google Play,
