The issues of promoting the idea of Eurasian economic integration among young people, best country-specific practices and convergence of national systems of talent identification and support, as well as joint development of the talent economy of the EAEU countries as the basis of the Union’s leadership in the global economy will be discussed at the session ‘Eurasia’s New Generation: Young Talent’ at the Eurasian Economic Forum (24–25 May, Moscow). The operator of the event is the Roscongress Foundation.
The world is currently undergoing a transformation from a knowledge economy to a talent economy. This trend is also relevant for the EAEU member states. The success of Eurasian economic integration and its quality in the future directly depend on today’s work with young people – future entrepreneurs, specialists and experts. As integration deepens and a common labour market is formed, not only national but also joint efforts at the Eurasian level are required to work with young talents. Sharing best practices as well as coordinated development of national talent identification and support systems could be key areas.
