The implementation of the project “Coworking for young scientists“ FutuRoom by Elina Bichkanova will allow organizing interaction between research teams and scientists on the basis of the KBSU infrastructure.

“The coworking space FutuRoom will primarily be used by students and postgraduates who work on projects and scientific developments.
