Technopolis Moscow SEZ became a member of the National Competence Center for Advanced Technologies

Technopolis Moscow Special Economic Zone (SEZ) has joined the National Competence Center for Advanced Technologies. It is an open platform for the development of new generation medicines. The relevant memorandum was signed within the framework of the II Moscow Investment and Industrial Forum. This was announced by Gennady Degtev, General Director of the Technopolis Moscow SEZ.

"The joining of the Moscow SEZ to the National Competence Center is an important step in the development of pharmaceuticals. This will create a unique ecosystem where scientific developments will be quickly transformed into real products. The center's participants will have access to modern production sites, laboratories and the infrastructure of the special economic zone for scaling and implementing advanced technologies," said Gennady Degtev.

The Center unites four key areas: science, infrastructure, regulatory expertise, and manufacturing.

As part of the cooperation, Technopolis Moscow SEZ will provide the center's participants with access to specialized production facilities and laboratories. It will develop and produce high-tech medicines, biomedical cellular products, biotechnological preparations, mRNA preparations, radiopharmaceuticals and innovative new generation medicines.

The Center will combine the efforts of Sechenov University, the Eurasian Academy of Good Practices, the Moscow Center for Innovative Technologies in Healthcare and the State Institute of Medicines and Good Practices. This will ensure a full cycle of creating new drugs, from development to market launch.

Technopolis Moscow Special Economic Zone celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2026. Over two decades, the project has transformed from a launching pad for innovative projects into a key hub for the domestic industry and a center of attraction for companies that determine Russia's technological sovereignty. Today, the production of more than 250 high-tech enterprises representing such strategic areas as microelectronics, instrumentation, biomedicine, IT and robotics is localized at 10 sites of the Technopolis Moscow SEZ with a total area of 430 hectares. The Department of Investment and Industrial Policy is responsible for the development of the special economic zone.

Sergei Sobyanin declared October 2026 the month of Moscow industry. The program includes more than 25 events for businesses, students, young professionals, residents and tourists. The Moscow Investment and Industrial Forum is taking place in the capital.
