We are gathering 300 professionals, among them are developers, designers, media professionals and strategists who are ready to solve an ambitious task. We are going to create a unique chatbot in the MAX messenger, which will become the main digital assistant for the youth of the entire region of Russia.

Forget about boring lectures – hackathons, UX/UI workshops, and design labs led by federal experts are waiting for you.
