On January 30, the first meeting of the Congress College business community, acting under the aegis of the Euro-Asian Jewish Congress, saw the opening of “Hyde Park” - an internal space for the discussion of any burning questions.

Among those who took part in the first community meeting in the new format were Director of the Planet of Hospitality, EAJC Vice President Merabl Elashvili, Deputy Director General of the government-owned corporation Rosnano, ex-Minister of Economics of Russia Yakov Urinson, Chairman of the Russian Federation Consumers' Union Petr Schelisch, and President of the Le Monti house of commerce Leon Gandelman. 

As the Congress College Chairman, EAJC Vice President Yuri Raskin noted, “We are trying to diversify the form of events held by our business community so that its participants have different ways of self-presentation and self-actualization. Our Hyde Park combines all of the beauty of “freedom of speech” with the possibility to implement particular commercial interests. Our first experience shows that we are faithfully following the Congress College slogan – 'We know, we are able, we find solutions!”
