Daniil Yurkevich, Master of the Digital Technologies in the High-tech Fashion Industry (FashionTech), presented to the experts of the session "From Science to Commercialization in the BRICS countries" a virtual podium project, which has been used at the Department of Digital and Additive Technologies of St. Petersburg State University since 2022.

"The main emphasis was placed on the need to train and improve the skills of commercialization of projects in the domestic market. This will help startups successfully enter international markets in the future and strengthen their positions in the BRICS countries."

Students of the University of Industrial Technology and Design independently develop sketches of clothes, collect collections in a digital environment, design the environment, animation, plan a stage for the demonstration of collections and place all the demonstration material on a digital podium. The project was created as part of the university's study of metaverses. As a result of these studies, a concept was created for the preservation of cultural values and cultural heritage of Russia in a virtual environment, which in turn will lead to the recognition of Russian art in the BRICS countries and other countries of the world. The project was highly appreciated and supported by experts who were interested in its development. In particular, Yu Cao, Executive Vice President of Zhejiang Intellectual Property Exchange Center (China), noted the uniqueness of the University's approach to industrial design and highly appreciated its potential.
