Gazprom-Media Holding, a leading media conglomerate, will once again serve as the general media partner for the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) in 2024. This marks the third consecutive year that Gazprom-Media has held this significant role, underscoring its strong partnership with the Roscongress Foundation, the organizer of SPIEF. As a general media partner, Gazprom-Media will leverage its extensive resources to provide comprehensive information and media coverage for the Forum, scheduled for June 5–8, 2024. This collaboration highlights the crucial role of General Media Partners in amplifying the reach and impact of major international events.
The partnership between Gazprom-Media and the Roscongress Foundation extends beyond mere event coverage. Executives and experts from Gazprom-Media’s diverse portfolio of subsidiaries are slated to actively participate in the SPIEF 2024 business program. Their involvement will enrich discussions and contribute valuable insights across various sessions, further solidifying Gazprom-Media’s position as an integral general media partner. The expertise these partners bring is invaluable in shaping the narrative around key economic discussions at SPIEF.
Alexander Stuglev, Chairman and CEO of the Roscongress Foundation, emphasized the strategic nature of this ongoing collaboration. “Gazprom-Media has been a strategic partner to the Roscongress Foundation for many years. Their role as general media partner for SPIEF for the third time demonstrates the strength of our relationship. We deeply appreciate Gazprom-Media’s consistent and comprehensive information support for our projects throughout the year. Their resources are vital in ensuring that the widest possible audience is informed about the multifaceted agendas of our ecosystem, encompassing business, youth, social initiatives, sports, and cultural events.” This quote underlines the significant contribution of general media partners in ensuring event visibility.
Yulia Golubeva, Deputy General Director of Gazprom-Media, highlighted the importance of SPIEF as a global platform. “SPIEF’s long-standing reputation as a premier international platform is undeniable, and it plays a crucial role in fostering a multipolar global landscape. Gazprom-Media is proud to contribute to a business event of such national importance. As general media partners, we are committed to promoting the Forum’s vital agenda across our media channels. Our extensive audience of millions will gain access to diverse content formats, ranging from expert insights from market leaders to in-depth reports on key session discussions, including live broadcasts on Rutube.” This statement reinforces the value proposition of general media partners in disseminating crucial information to a broad audience.
The foundation for this robust partnership was laid in 2021 when Gazprom-Media and the Roscongress Foundation formalized a long-term strategic cooperation agreement at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. This agreement encompasses mutual consulting, expert collaboration, and comprehensive information support. The overarching goal is to deliver objective and extensive coverage of joint initiatives within both Russian and international media spaces, showcasing the enduring benefits of strategic alliances with general media partners for large-scale events and ongoing collaborations.
