Interregional Mediathon for schoolchildren and students started in Pskov

On November 11, the interregional Mediathon opened at the site of the children's technopark "Kvantorium Pskov". The competition is attended by 20 teams of young media specialists aged 12 to 18 years from eight cities: Pskov, Veliky Onions, Izborsk, St. Petersburg, Gatchina, Nizhny Novgorod, Kirovsk and Murmansk.

Within three days, participants will have to solve real business problems from the partners of the event. The list of cases included the creation of a sticker pack for the Max messenger, the shooting of VK Klip, the redesign of groups in VKontakte, as well as the generation of product cards for marketplaces using artificial intelligence. The results of each stage will be recorded in an open tournament table.

The head of the Pskov regional branch of Business Russia Dmitry Melnikov addressed the participants with a welcoming speech. He noted that young people’s views on media promotion are often fresher and more relevant than those of adult entrepreneurs, and this exchange of experience is beneficial for both parties. Marathon organizer Zoya Pavlova wished the children inspiration, reminding that “the most important victory is the victory over yourself yesterday.”.

We have a great cooperation with Quantorium Pskov, we have several areas. Last year we supported a large number of their projects, this year a significant number, and this is not the end. As for the media sphere in Quantorium, this is a very interesting direction. Those young people who are interested in media promotion are more qualified than the same entrepreneurs who, due to the specifics of their work, are forced to do everything in a row. A look from the outside, young people, who are already many customers of these manufacturers, is very useful for entrepreneurs, even more than for our young and talented guys who came to Pskov from other cities to compete and win in this interesting event. I hope that they will make new friends, have a good time, learn more about our beloved city, and, of course, I have no doubt, it will be useful for entrepreneurs.

The winners with the highest score will receive diplomas and prizes from sponsors. The final of the marathon and summing up the results will be held on November 13.
