More than 50 stands with implemented solutions will be presented at Startup Village

The Expo zone will feature more than 50 projects of small technology companies from Moscow and Russian regions, grouped by industry trends and market demands, each of which is an already implemented case with a real result. New high-tech products and solutions that can be seen, touched and even tried will also be presented in various locations inside and outside the Technopark.

This year’s exhibition will become an end-to-end demonstration space, proving that new solutions offered by Russian startups are actively in demand by the market, and at the same time will act as a working platform for new strategic partnerships.

Among the key exhibits are developments by Skolkovo residents. RTSIM will present computer simulators for training specialists in the oil and gas industry. RTSIM simulators provide an opportunity to practice the technological processes of oil refining in a virtual environment, allowing you to reduce the risks of training on real equipment and improve the skills of personnel on the job. The solution has already been integrated into the educational programs of more than 120 universities, and is used by major industry companies, including Rosneft, Gazpromneft, Tatneft, and NOVATEK.

The project actively uses Skolkovo’s support: reimbursement of expenses for participation in international and federal exhibitions, legal and marketing support. Last year, the company’s revenue amounted to 421 million rubles, showing an increase of more than 3 times, and net profit reached 159 million rubles. The platform’s international user base has grown 10—fold, from 302 to 3,000 professionals and students, and the total number of users has exceeded 18,000 in 19 countries, including Nigeria, Malaysia, Indonesia, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt. At the exhibition, visitors will be able to familiarize themselves with the demo version of the simulators, see examples of training scenarios and discuss the possibilities of implementing a platform for training industry personnel.

Another exhibit will be the Intelligent Building Solutions project— a domestic QMonitoring AI platform for round‑the-clock monitoring and analysis of video images from construction sites. The development makes it possible to use budget funds more efficiently and reduce construction risks at an early stage. The Skolkovo Foundation launched the startup through the Build UP accelerator and provided access to the country’s largest developers and a government customer, turning the AI project into a national infrastructure for monitoring construction projects.

The Federal Treasury, the operator of the state Management information system, is already implementing a Skolkovo participant service for analyzing construction risks. The QMonitoring platform analyzes video streams from more than 500 capital construction projects on National Projects for the whole of Russia around the clock, identifies risk scenarios and ensures transparency of processes, and analytical data serves as the basis for making decisions on financing the next stages. In parallel, work is underway with the country’s largest developers, the solution helps to reduce construction control costs by up to 30% and downtime of equipment and personnel by up to 60%. The company’s revenue increased 3.2 times over the year, and the team entered the top 10 of the Russian Venture Forum 2026.

Drinks Factory will be available in the Mentor’s Lounge. Skolkovo participant Smart Drinks has launched mass production of Russia’s first alternative to alcohol based on neurotransmitters (Alcosynth category), a drink that simulates the effect of light relaxation without ethanol. The formula includes gamma‑aminobutyric acid, 5‑HTP and plant adaptogens. The effect occurs after 15-20 minutes, while the product does not contain sugar or calories and does not cause a hangover.

An innovation that responds to the global trend of «conscious sobriety» fills a vacant niche in the Russian market. In 2025, the company received a patent from the Russian Federation for the technology of integrating Vitamin U into liquid media. The project also raised 57.5 million rubles as part of the first part of investment round A, with the company’s valuation at 418 million rubles. The funds will be used to replenish working capital to work with federal retail chains (X5 Group, Magnit, VkusVill), expand production and marketing of Drinks Factory brands. In 2025, the company’s revenue increased to 172 million rubles (by 75%); The goal for 2026 is to double this figure, and in the long term, to build its own plant in the SEZ with investments of up to 2 billion rubles.

Startup Village is the flagship Skolkovo technology festival, which has been bringing together startups, corporations, investors, scientists, and government representatives since 2013. The organizer is the Skolkovo Foundation, co—organized by the Government of Moscow and VEB.RF. In 2026, the event will be held as part of the Moscow Entrepreneurship Week.

Participation is free. Registration and details are available here: https://startupvillage.ru /.
