Moderator: Zarina Umetalieva, head of the Expert Analytical Center «Meikin», TV presenter, media expert.

In the 21st century, at the peak of scientific and technological progress, humanity realized that knowledge and information have become as important a resource as coal, oil, iron, food and other material assets. Just as a century earlier society was transformed from an agricultural society into an industrial one, so today changes are taking place that allow scientists to talk about the formation of a knowledge society or information society.

Modern technologies and the easy availability of information and the enormous speed of its dissemination have created in many people the feeling that school and university education are losing their meaning. More and more people believe that you can always go to YouTube, watch and listen to everything you need at a particular moment, find the best "experts" and "professionals".

Representatives of business, government and public opinion leaders will talk about new meanings and demands for education in the context of digital transformation in the 21st century in brainstorming mode. Their analysis and forecasts will open the curtains of the future and allow us to look beyond the horizon...

We invite everyone interested to take part in this important discussion!
