Moscow [Russia], November 15 (ANI): The IV Young Scientists Congress is scheduled to take place from November 27 to 29 at the Sirius Federal Territory in Russia. This key event of the Decade of Science and Technology will bring together researchers, and experts, according to a report by TV BRICS, which is the official media partner of the event.
The upcoming IV Young Scientists Congress is poised to be a significant event, bringing together researchers, experts, business leaders, and government representatives to discuss the issues in science and technology.

It is pertinent to note that the event will also host the 9th BRICS Young Scientists Forum and the BRICS Young Innovator Prize.
The IV Congress is set to be a groundbreaking event, with the use of cutting-edge technologies to enhance the experience of its attendees.

Additionally, navigation through the exhibition areas and stands will be made easy through QR codes, providing information in multiple languages, including Chinese, Portuguese, and Arabic.
Anton Kobyakov, Advisor to the Russian President and head of the interdepartmental working group on the preparation and holding of the event, emphasised the need for new organisational tools to include the expanded Congress agenda, which now incorporates BRICS events.
"Expanding the Congress agenda to include BRICS events requires the introduction and testing of new organisational tools. Successful practices of the event will be scaled to other events for the convenience of our foreign guests," said Kobyakov, as per TV BRICS.
To ensure an easy experience for international attendees, over 250 volunteers proficient in languages including Hindi, Bengali, Farsi, English, Arabic, Vietnamese, Spanish, Chinese, Portuguese, Thai, French and several others, will be stationed at the venue to provide assistance.

One of the key elements will be an exhibition of scientific achievements of Russia's regions, where the results of the implementation of regional plans for the initiatives of the Decade of Science and Technology will be presented, TV BRICS reported.
