 “The expansion in geography of the international cooperation of the HSE Graduate School of Business fully corresponds to the changes in the priority directions of foreign economic activity of Russian business. I would say that our increased attention is centered on BRICS+. We must train professionals ready to work in the markets that are completely new for Russia. It is crucial to form an adequate idea of how to run business in Russia and with Russia in these countries. The first students of the Indonesian Binus University are ready to engage in our exchange programme,” Ivan Prostakov, the Deputy Director of the HSE Graduate School of Business in International Relations, noted.
