The development of the Arctic territories is one of the strategic directions for the development of Russia for many decades ahead.

With all this, it is important to understand that an integral condition for the harmonious development of the Russian part of the Arctic (however, this is relevant for the entire region) is the preservation of a unique natural complex. That is why a program of scientific, technical and industrial and technological development of the Arctic territories is necessary, including all the above aspects.

Rosatom State Corporation today is the leading high -tech Russian company of global scale, which has the necessary competence for the development of a program, both in the field of science and in the field of practical application of scientific knowledge - technology. Rosatom did a large -scale work to identify existing and promising demand for technology and products that may be in demand in the development of the Arctic. The state corporation, together with the Russian special building, is already working on the formation of a program for the development of the Arctic territories in which oil and gas companies, subjects of the Federation, and transport companies are interested.
