In honor of City Day, a new recreation area for residents of the capital was opened at the Technopolis Moscow SEZ

Ahead of City Day, a pharmaceutical square opened at the Alabushevo site of the special economic zone (SEZ) “Technopolis Moscow”. The new location is available to employees of the enterprises and residents of the capital. This was announced by Maxim Liksutov, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry.

“On the instructions of Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, we are creating modern social infrastructure and comfortable recreation areas on the territory of the SEZ. A new square has opened at one of the sites ahead of City Day.” “Thanks to such projects, industrial areas are becoming centres of attraction for Muscovites and visitors to the capital,” said Maxim Liksutov.

The key part of the new space is a garden that replicates the shape of a Petri dish. This symbol alludes to the residents of the Technopolis Moscow SEZ, who produce modern medicines. A decorative pond has been created nearby, where you can relax during lunch or after work. The square also features the “Ring” art object with built‑in LED screens.

For landscaping the area, pines, spruces, rowan trees, and red maples were chosen, as well as shrubs — lilacs, hydrangeas, barberries, junipers, and sage. The visual design for the square was developed by Russian architect Anton Kochurkin, who is a co‑author of the concept for the largest art park in Europe, Nikola‑Lenivets.

The special economic zone “Technopolis Moscow” will celebrate its 20th anniversary in 2026. Over the past two decades, it has transformed from a launchpad for innovative projects into a key hub for domestic industry and a magnet for companies that define Russia’s technological sovereignty. Today, production of more than 240 high‑tech enterprises representing strategic areas such as microelectronics, instrument engineering, biomedicine, IT, and robotics is localized across 10 sites of the Technopolis Moscow SEZ, with a total area of 430 hectares.

Moscow is actively developing industrial infrastructure for high‑tech enterprises. Thanks to urban solutions, companies are increasing their production output and launching innovative production facilities. This contributes to the implementation of the national project “Effective and Competitive Economy.”
