“St.Petersburg – the Sea Capital of Russia” Project Coordinator
"Project "St. Petersburg - the Sea Capital of Russia" has its roots in February 2007, and during these five years project has grown considerably - both in scale and importance of raised topics and in number of participants. Every year the number of delegates from the Russian regions is becoming more and more, and in the process of preparation of the resolution that is the result of the conference, we hear the voice of the regions louder and louder. And it’s rightly so! No one but the residents of the region can talk about their problems and how they see their decision better. And on our part we must be prepared to listen to them and to create conditions for fruitful collaboration.
That is why the Project "St. Petersburg - the Sea Capital of Russia" is really ALL-RUSSIAN. Regional coordinators will allow us to be well-informed about the most pressing issues of the region and will help to ensure that the decisions taken in the resolution would be implemented. After all, this is the main goal of the Project".

“St.Petersburg – the Sea Capital of Russia” Project Manager
"In 2007, the Project was conceived to develop the sea port of St. Petersburg, as for the development of our city fleet is paramount. St. Petersburg has played a key role in the development of Russia as a naval power and it shall continue to be the sea capital of our country. But the development of a transport hub in isolation from the development of the transport system of Russia is impossible. Therefore, the Project immediately went beyond the regional themes.
Since 2008, within the framework of the Project five annual conferences with international participation on the most topical issues of port infrastructure development and shipbuilding industry in Russia, environmental safety of sea activities, formation of personnel potential of the Russian fleet, and development of water tourism have been held.
Here in St. Petersburg on the discussion platform of the Project heads of the regional executive and legislative authorities, representatives of regional companies and trade associations of more than 30 subjects of Russia are involved in the preparation of proposals for solving the existing problems in the transport sector and to make adjustments to the work of governments at federal, regional and local levels. Creation of the Project offices in the regions where the economy and welfare of people directly depend on the efficient use of water resources will specifically develop regional initiatives in the field of sea and river transport, shipbuilding, and the effective development of coastal areas and tourism development".
