Open Dialogue Experts at NC ‘Russia’ Discuss Success Formula in the Economy of the Future
Moscow, Russia – 08/10/2025 – (SeaPRwire) – An expert session of the Open Dialogue “Future of the World. New Platform for Global Growth” took place on October 7 at the National Center “Russia”. World-class experts participated in the discussion on “New Economy: Competition for Positive Development.”
The session participants were welcomed by the moderator, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Presidential Administration of the Russian Federation and Deputy Chairman of the National Center “Russia” Organizing Committee, Maxim Oreshkin.
“In the primary, secondary, and tertiary sectors of the economy, competition is being won by those who used to be called developing economies. Now these are the economies of the global majority. The key marginality of many markets is concentrated not in the production process itself, but in creating image, perception of ideas associated with certain products. I am confident that in production itself, in creating goods and services, in the new economy, the economy of the global majority is winning the competition step by step. The same will happen in the experience economy,” stated Maxim Oreshkin.
Experts discussed values and meanings as a factor of competitiveness. Using food production as an example, Sergey Ivanov, Executive Director and Board Member of EFKO Group, explained how through the presence of additional meanings, a product can become not just a commodity but a lifestyle and source of impressions.
“Branding is the experience economy. Only there, impressions are tied to the product and add emotional benefits to its rational benefits,” explained Sergey Ivanov.
According to him, the future of the primary sector lies in transitioning from price competition to competition for trust, emotions, and cultural significance of the product. The speaker also emphasized the importance of ethical considerations in the experience economy.
“At some stage of the experience economy’s development, there arose a temptation to separate emotional benefits from rational ones. To turn them from accompanying properties into a separate commodity. A modern corporation in its relationships with consumers most resembles a huge hulk who has seriously entered into a duel with a kindergarten child. Because modern marketing can impose and sell anything. Today’s experience economy is not just an emotion market. It’s a laboratory where human beings are being reassembled. If we don’t agree on rules and ethics, then the experience economy will with high probability destroy society from within,” noted Sergey Ivanov.
Continuing the theme, James Law, founder of James Law Cybertecture International (China), discussed how design, public spaces, and aesthetics create economic and social value, and how the level of impressions and user experience are becoming new performance indicators in architecture and urban planning.
“It can be confidently stated that in the new economy, cities based on impressions act as catalysts for well-being, competitiveness, and positive development,” emphasized James Law.
Dmitry Vasiliev, Development Director and co-founder of Karfidov Lab, touched on the value of creativity in industry. He stated that in the new economy, companies that integrate creativity into the value creation chain—from idea to end user—win.
“Creativity is becoming a real driver of industrial development: innovative design and non-standard engineering solutions enhance the competitiveness of production facilities. Therefore, modern industry must create not only functional products but also impressions that form trust and demand. Successful projects are born at the intersection of engineering competencies and creative approach—in the synergy of science, technology, and creativity,” Dmitry Vasiliev is convinced.
Nitaya Kanokmongkol (Thailand), Executive Director of the Fine Arts Department of Thailand, stated that impressions increase demand for art, forming an “economy of beauty.”
“Beauty is becoming a real economic value. Aesthetic impressions in museums and galleries stimulate cultural tourism, education, and creative industries. We try to balance between identity and globalization, preserving the authenticity of Thai culture and making national art attractive to international audiences, because new experience in content and meaning management can be formed even without using technology,” noted Nitaya Kanokmongkol.
Brian Gleeson (Ireland), General Manager of Radisson Collection Paradise Resort & Spa, continued the theme of “impression capital” in tourism and hospitality. He explained that implementing local culture and responsible practices can not only increase brand value but also stimulate the development of other industries, and what can help unlock the untapped potential of international tourism that Russia possesses.
“The bet on tourism led Ireland to become one of the world’s largest technology centers. We prioritized developing our country’s brand because it illustrates what we are. This is what I wanted to do in Russia as well. People from abroad must understand how hospitable the people are here, what incredible quality of service there is in everything related to the impressions industry. Five-million-population Ireland receives about 6 billion euros from international tourism. But our country will never compare to Russia. Your country’s marketing potential is enormous. Here you can use geographical features, UNESCO sites, cultural traditions, history, and much more,” concluded Brian Gleeson.
Felipe Buitrago (Colombia), Deputy Minister of the Orange (Creative) Economy, discussed how cultural and meaningful narratives form countries’ competitiveness and their “soft power.” He noted that the experience economy and “orange economy” should become strategic assets for states.
“The state should not just subsidize culture but also form an infrastructure of meanings, financing solutions and innovations. At the same time, we cannot forget about maintaining a balance between international competitiveness and preserving unique local cultural codes in the new economy,” noted Felipe Buitrago.
Producer, screenwriter, and director Mehret Mandefro from Ethiopia touched on the theme of local language and culture as an alternative to existing templates.
“In the conditions of the new economy, local cultures and storytelling traditions can compete with dominant Hollywood formats due to their authenticity. Moreover, local identity and cultural uniqueness act as competitive advantages in positioning projects on global platforms such as Netflix and Disney+, which contributes to forming large-scale content ecosystems—effective solutions for new economies,” concluded Mehret Mandefro.
Additionally, she emphasized that a global shift is occurring in the world of cinematography. Stories that are repeated have devalued and are uninteresting to anyone. The future belongs to authentic stories.
“Stories that have already been told don’t sell anymore—they’re often called plastic stories. Now we’re experiencing such a shift, a revolutionary change. New creative forms are emerging that use local language—it’s a whole cosmos. I believe there’s really great potential there; we can open up a whole new world in storytelling,” said Mehret Mandefro.
The International Symposium “Creating the Future” brings together participants from more than 85 countries worldwide, including China, USA, Italy, Latin American countries, the Middle East, Africa, and Southeast Asia. Among the guests are scientists, engineers, futurists, art, culture, and media figures, united by the desire to comprehend and shape tomorrow’s appearance.
The recording of the broadcast of the expert session “New Economy: Competition for Positive Development” of the Open Dialogue is available on the Russia.ru website and in the official social networks of the National Center “Russia.”

Beyond the Goodbye: Final Moment Unveils Enhanced “Legacy Milestones” to Bridge the Gap Between Generations
Carrolton, GA, 23rd April 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Following a landmark launch that redefined digital remembrance, Final Moment is doubling down on its mission to humanize technology. The company today announced the rollout of “Legacy Milestones,” a series of enhanced features designed to turn digital archives into living, breathing connections for families navigating life’s most important chapters. While the initial launch proved that the world was ready for a digital memorial platform, this next phase focuses on the “active” side of memory. Final Moment is no longer just a place to store the past; it is becoming a vehicle for future presence.

The Power of Being There, Even When You’re Not
The heart of the update lies in the expanded Milestone Messaging system. Users can now curate “Life Packages”—batches of videos, letters, and advice specifically triggered by their loved ones’ future life events, such as a child’s graduation, a wedding day, or even the birth of a grandchild.
We realized very quickly that our users weren’t just looking for a digital filing cabinet; they were looking for a way to still provide comfort and wisdom from the sidelines,” said Michael Avery, Founder and CEO of Final Moment. “With Legacy Milestones, we’re making it possible for a father to walk his daughter down the aisle through a video message recorded years prior, or for a grandmother to share a secret recipe on a specific holiday. It’s about being present for the moments that matter most.”
New Innovations in the Second Chapter
To support this deepened emotional connection, Final Moment has introduced several key updates:
-
- The “Wisdom Well”: A dedicated space for users to record “Life Lessons” or ethical wills, categorized by topic (finances, love, resilience), ensuring their values are inherited alongside their assets.
- Enhanced Interactive Timelines: A more intuitive interface that allows families to collaborate on a loved one’s memorial, adding their own stories and photos to create a multi-perspective history.
- Verified Legacy Handover: A streamlined security protocol that ensures designated “Legacy Guardians” can access content seamlessly when the time comes, providing peace of mind without the technical headache.
A Human Approach to a Growing Industry
Co-founder Damien Hinman emphasizes that while the tech is sophisticated, the goal is simplicity. “We’ve seen a massive shift in how people view their digital footprint,” Hinman noted. “People don’t want to be remembered by a cold social media profile. They want a curated, warm, and intentional legacy. We are providing the tools to make that transition from ‘data’ to ‘heritage’.”
Scaling for the Future
The success of the initial launch has paved the way for Final Moment to integrate more deeply with the funeral and estate planning sectors. By offering a bridge between traditional end-of-life services and the digital age, Final Moment is quickly becoming the gold standard for how modern families manage the emotional weight of loss. “Our goal is to ensure no story is ever lost to time,” Avery added. “This update is another step toward making sure that when we say ‘goodbye,’ it doesn’t mean our story has to end.”
About Final Moment
Final Moment is a technology-driven company dedicated to transforming remembrance and legacy preservation. Founded by Michael Avery with Damien Hinman as cofounder, the company combines secure digital storage with emotional storytelling tools that empower individuals to build online memorials, share lasting messages, and connect with loved ones beyond life.

Long Lake Camp for the Arts Celebrates Decades of Fostering Creative Excellence in New York
-
A legacy of artistic achievement continues as Long Lake Camp remains a leading destination for immersive performing arts education for youth.
Dobbs Ferry, NY, 23rd April 2026, ZEXPRWIRE — For more than five decades, Long Lake Camp for the Arts has stood as a cornerstone of creative education in New York, shaping generations of young performers, artists, and storytellers. As one of the nation’s most respected overnight performing arts programs, the camp proudly celebrates its enduring legacy of fostering artistic growth, confidence, and lifelong passion for the arts.
Founded in 1969, Long Lake Camp for the Arts was built on the belief that young people thrive when given the freedom to express themselves creatively while receiving professional guidance. Set against the scenic backdrop of the Adirondack Mountains, the camp provides an immersive environment where campers ages 8 to 16 engage in theater, music, dance, and fine arts in a supportive, community-driven setting.
Over the years, Long Lake has earned national recognition for its role in nurturing talent that has gone on to achieve success across major creative industries. Alumni include Academy Award winners, Broadway performers, Grammy recipients, and accomplished directors and producers. These individuals began their artistic journeys on Long Lake’s stages, rehearsal spaces, and studios—spaces that continue to inspire young artists today.
“Long Lake Camp has always been about more than performance—it’s about helping young people discover who they are through creative expression,” said a representative of the camp. “Our goal is to provide a space where every camper feels supported, encouraged, and inspired to grow both artistically and personally.”
Unlike traditional programs that follow rigid schedules, Long Lake Camp offers a flexible, camper-driven structure. Participants design their own daily experiences, choosing from a wide range of disciplines and activities that align with their interests. This personalized approach allows campers to build skills at their own pace while gaining exposure to multiple art forms.
Campers receive daily instruction and mentorship from experienced artists and educators while gaining access to professional-grade theaters, studios, and creative workspaces. They participate in fully staged productions, concerts, and showcases, all while enjoying a balance of artistic training and traditional camp experiences such as swimming, kayaking, and community events.
This combination of structure and creative freedom has positioned Long Lake as a leader among overnight performing arts programs in New York. The camp’s philosophy emphasizes collaboration, exploration, and confidence-building, helping campers develop not only technical abilities but also strong communication and interpersonal skills.
Families consistently recognize the lasting impact of the Long Lake experience. Many campers return year after year, building lasting friendships and deepening their artistic abilities. Parents often note significant growth in confidence, independence, and self-expression after just one session.
As Long Lake Camp for the Arts reflects on decades of excellence, it remains committed to evolving alongside the needs of today’s young artists. By integrating contemporary training methods with its longstanding traditions, the camp continues to provide a meaningful and enriching experience for each new generation.

Long Lake Camp for the Arts Redefines the Performing Arts Summer Camp Experience for 2026
-
A new era of creative immersion begins in the Adirondacks, where young artists ages 8–16 design their own path in theater, music, dance, and fine arts.
Dobbs Ferry, NY, 23rd April 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Long Lake Camp for the Arts announces an exciting and expanded vision for its 2026 summer season, continuing its decades-long tradition of artistic excellence while introducing enhanced programming designed to meet the evolving needs of today’s young performers and creators.
Nestled on a private 200-acre lakefront campus in the heart of New York’s Adirondack Mountains, Long Lake Camp has long stood apart from traditional summer programs. Rather than prescribing a rigid curriculum, the camp empowers each child to customize their experience across theater, musical performance, dance, visual arts, and music composition. For 2026, that core philosophy remains—now supported by expanded masterclasses, interdisciplinary workshops, and new performance opportunities.
Campers ages 8 to 16 choose how they want to spend their summer: starring in musicals, developing dramatic monologues, building portfolios in painting and sculpture, composing original music, or blending multiple disciplines into a uniquely personalized schedule. Professional directors, teaching artists, and working performers provide daily instruction through one-on-one coaching, ensemble rehearsals, studio intensives, and detailed performance critiques.
“Every child who comes to Long Lake deserves the opportunity to discover their creative voice in a setting that is both professionally rigorous and emotionally supportive. Our goal is to give young artists the tools, mentorship, and confidence they need to thrive—not just on stage, but in life,” said a spokesperson for Long Lake Camp for the Arts.
The result is a pre-professional training environment that remains developmentally supportive and age-appropriate. At Long Lake, artistic rigor coexists with encouragement. There are no mandatory auditions to participate in productions, ensuring that every camper performs at a level aligned with their confidence and goals.
Long Lake’s legacy of excellence is reflected in the accomplishments of its alumni. Academy Award winner Adrien Brody, known for his performance in The Pianist, began honing his craft at Long Lake. Grammy Award-winning performer Cristin Milioti, recognized for her work in Palm Springs and on Broadway, is also among its former campers. Internationally acclaimed actress Chiara Mastroianni, recipient of France’s César Award, once stood on the same Adirondack stage current campers call their own.
Yet Long Lake measures success not solely by accolades, but by personal transformation. Families consistently report that campers return home with heightened confidence, stronger communication skills, and a deeper sense of self-expression. The camp’s structure intentionally balances disciplined artistic training with classic summer recreation. Outside rehearsal hours, campers swim, kayak, participate in talent nights, gather around campfires, and build lifelong friendships in a technology-light, community-centered environment.
The 2026 season will also introduce expanded wellness and performance psychology workshops, helping young artists develop resilience, stage presence, and collaborative skills—tools that serve them well beyond the performing arts.
With professional theaters, rehearsal studios, costume and set design facilities, music rooms, and fine arts spaces all located on its scenic lakefront property, Long Lake provides an infrastructure rarely found in youth programs. Every production is camper-driven, guided by expert mentorship yet fueled by individual creativity.
Due to consistently high enrollment and strong return rates, spaces for the 2026 season are expected to fill quickly. Families are encouraged to inquire early to secure preferred session dates and housing options.
