Today, the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Tatarstan hosted the first Organising Committee meeting of the Republic’s Annual Open TV Festival of Working Youth Creativity “Our Time – Beznen Zaman” chaired by Deputy Prime Minister of Tatarstan Albert Karimov. The meeting was attended by members of the Organising Committee, Director of the Traffic Safety Establishment Rifkat Minnikhanov (team leader of the two-time Grand Prix Festival winner in 2017-2018), and representatives of four municipal districts of Tatarstan, where the festival’s zonal qualifying rounds will take place.
The meeting discussed organisational issues for the festival in 2019, worked out an action plan, the jury composition and the festival regulations, as well as further ideas for improving this movement. This year, the organisers are striving to remove age limits responding to the wishes of the participants themselves. It is assumed that the participants may now include talented employees of Tatarstan’s enterprises in the age category of 40+.
The start of the festival was announced at the meeting of Tatarstan President Rustam Minnikhanov with the activists of the “Our Time – Beznen Zaman” movement in February 2019. The applications for the 7th Republic’s Annual Open TV Festival of Working Youth Creativity will be accepted this year until September 25, 2019.
