Receiving ₽23 billion for construction and development
Until 2028, ₽23 billion federal funds will be allocated for the construction and development of an innovative scientific and technological center on Russky Island. This was announced on November 20, 2025 by the Minister of Vocational Education and Employment of the Primorsky Territory Sergei Dubovitsky at a meeting of the Legislative Assembly Committee on Social Policy and Protection of Citizens' Rights.
According to RBC, the funds will be used to build four scientific and educational complexes. These are four blocks where residents will be housed - innovative technology companies with their research centers. Areas of activity include IT, marine engineering, biotechnology and biomedicine.
Sergei Dubovitsky noted that in fact a cluster is being created that is close in functionality to the domestic analogue of Silicon Valley. The concentration of scientific, educational and technology companies in one place should create a synergistic effect. The proximity of research centers to educational institutions accelerates the transfer of technology from science to industry.
The comparison with Silicon Valley indicates that the project is ambitious. The American technology cluster has been forming for decades around Stanford University. INTC "Russian" is integrated with the second stage of the campus of the Far Eastern Federal University. The university provides a talent base for technology companies.
The first building of the pilot site has already been commissioned. 16 residents entered it, of which 12 companies were not from Primorsky Krai. The geography of the participants testifies to the interregional attractiveness of the project. Companies from other regions are ready to move or open divisions in the Far East.
Among the residents there are developers of blood glucose monitoring systems and diabetic test strips. They use their own technology based on the enzymes GOD and GDH-FAD. Medical technologies are one of the priority areas of the center. The development of domestic medical devices reduces dependence on imports.[1]

According to him, the new center will unite high-tech business, engineers and researchers from different countries. A cluster of high-tech companies will be created in Primorye, and Vladivostok will become a center of attraction for scientists and young specialists.
Chekunkov described the complex as a single center for the scientific and technological development of the Far East and a conveyor of innovative developments from laboratory research to pilot batches. The center's areas of work correspond to global technological trends and include biotechnology, the study of the resources of the World Ocean and information technology.
Elena Kharisova, Director General of the Development Fund of the Russian Research and Development Center, reported to the President on the readiness of the facility and plans to accommodate the first residents by the end of 2025. Until the end of the year, 16 companies with a portfolio of 30 innovative projects will start working at the center.[2]
Start of IT park construction
On Russky Vo Island Vladivostok , the construction of an information technology park began within the framework of the Russky Innovation Scientific and Technological Center (INTC). The complex will consist of three modern buildings with a height of three to four floors, united by a multi-light atrium. The project is being implemented on behalf of the president Russia Vladimir Putin at the base. Far Eastern Federal University This became known on July 16, 2025.
According to the initiators of the project, special attention is paid to engineering solutions in the project, taking into account the high seismicity of the region, complex terrain and increased requirements for noise and vibration isolation. The building is designed so that laboratories and workspaces are protected from external interference, which creates optimal conditions for working on high-precision technologies.
The atrium will become the centerpiece of the complex and will be used as a congress and exhibition space for technological events. The multi-light space is designed to organize presentations of new technologies and other specialized events.
The developer of the project is the Development Fund of the Russian Research and Development Center, 53 Central Design Institute JSC has been appointed general designer. The selection of professional participants ensures the high quality of the implementation of the architectural and construction project.
The IT park will become a platform for the development of microelectronics, artificial intelligence and other advanced technological areas. The creation of the center is aimed at ensuring the technological sovereignty of Russia in key sectors of the digital economy.
On the basis of the Far Eastern Federal University, a comprehensive ecosystem is being formed for the development and introduction of knowledge-intensive products. The university base provides access to scientific personnel and research infrastructure for the work of park residents.[3]
