Nowadays, the Internet and modern IT technologies have made a great contribution to the development of society, and a modern digital economy has emerged. One of the impressive achievements of recent years has been the widespread introduction of marketplaces, which are optimized online platforms for the provision of products and services. Combining IT technologies with biotechnologies in medicine, agriculture, green energy and other branches of modern economy and medicine can form a new branch in the digital economy - bioeconomy. Standardization of a “product” or “service” is a fundamental criterion in the formation of marketplaces. The lack of unified global standards of pre-analytical level of research has prevented the formation of niche marketplaces for R&D and production solutions. However, the biobanking trend that has been developing over the last 20 years has helped to solve the problem by forming a set of uniform rules and recommendations for all researchers and institutions (the concept of network standardized biobanks - “Virtual Biobank”). In addition to the samples themselves, biobanks are a source of a large amount of biomedical data. Their qualitative difference from other databases lies in the uniform standards for their acquisition (biobanking standards). This ensures their uniformity regardless of the center where they were obtained (validated data). Therefore, biobanks are also “BIODATA Banks” (or Digital Biobanks). Consequently, these bases are indispensable for the development of technologies based on BIG DATA analysis, artificial intelligence and bioinformatics. To realize this direction, the SmartBio team has formulated the concept of a Marketplace of R&D, BIODATA and production solutions. Based on the concept, we will create a unified platform that unites all clinical bases and coordinates their work through a project module. In addition to project solutions, the module will integrate unified standards for collection, processing and storage of biomaterial, which will ensure standardization of both biosamples and the data obtained from them. The platform will allow storing any format of data and providing their routing to high-performance computing clusters for the development of algorithms based on BIG DATA analysis, artificial intelligence and bioinformatics. Analysis of ongoing research will allow the creation of both new drugs and the search for bioequivalents of existing ones, while the project module will enable rapid search for a manufacturing base to create a series of products. The integration of regulatory bodies will ensure transparency and safety of all ongoing research and development.

Microorganisms, as the most abundant and diverse organic living entities in soil, play a crucial role in maintaining soil health. They include bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes, which drive the cycling of elements such as carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur. These processes are closely related to plant primary productivity and soil health. This project utilizes digital spectral micro-light information technology to collect signal spectra of the metabolic activity and products of rhizosphere microorganisms in the soil of plants and to establish a data model. This allows for the assessment of the activity of soil microorganisms and the rhizosphere environment, and the inference of soil health.

The rapid growth of the BRICS economies necessitates the prompt and project implementation to define a strategy for the distributed energy systems development. This involves selecting the optimal strategy to upgrade energy assets and energy consumption control, considering the technical and economic conditions of specific regions. Successful implementation of this kind of project requires qualified specialists with expertise in both energy and IT. The specified task encounters the following problems: 1. Shortage in engineers. There is a shortage of professionals who can develop optimal strategies for distributed energy systems. This role requires a combination of energy systems knowledge and programming skills to solve optimization modeling problems and execute all phases of the project. 2. No structured knowledge profile No widely known universal competency profile containing the theoretical knowledge and practical skills needed to educate a specialist who can find the optimal strategy of distributed energy systems development. 3. Insufficient updating of educational programs Educational institutions offer only part of the knowledge and skills required to address the mentioned tasks. Furthermore, it is uncommon for energy specialists to gain IT-related expertise, and for IT professionals to develop energy sector skills. 4. Companies are facing rising costs related to building and maintaining their talent pool. Due to gaps in education, tech companies frequently have to provide extra training for new hires. Solution: Educational standard for distributed energy and optimization modeling specialists who can find energy system’s development strategy using IT technologies. The standard will be based on the existing competency profile "Distributed Energy Systems and Optimization Modeling Engineer". The competency profile should include: 1. Adaptation to local conditions Adapt the profile for each BRICS country considering the specificities of national energy systems, equipment, and electricity markets. Material will be conducted in local languages 2. Seamless integration between energy and IT specialists: It is proposed to create educational trajectories that allow specialists in energy and IT fields to transition to opposite areas, taking into account the business needs of partner companies. 3. Practical orientation The trajectory will involve modeling real commercial projects implemented in Russia and the EU. This will provide students with a better understanding of business processes and accelerate their adaptation in the workplace. 4. Modularity A flexible structure of educational material will allow for the creation of individualized educational trajectories that meet the needs of both companies and students.

The Indian armed forces wanted to deploy advanced and autonomous surveillance solutions for their challenging surveillance missions on borders. The forces wanted to detect threats and identify risk-prone areas from remote locations for border surveillance, anti-terror operations, as well as conduct reconnaissance missions and track illegal activities without putting the lives of soldiers at risk. These missions are always carried out on high altitude range, on extreme terrains and in harsh weather. There is often risk of soldiers’ lives, aborting missions due to unforeseen circumstances and limitation/lack of resources. ideaForge has responded to the ask, and developed all terrain dominator drone, SWITCH. Designed and developed by ideaForge, SWITCH UAV is India's first-ever fixed-wing VTOL UAV. It is packed with software and hardware innovations to deliver a robust military-grade UAV. Since a runway is not required, it has excellent agility and can travel across a range of terrains smoothly. SWITCH features advanced flight time, higher safety, and simple operation with additional fail-safe redundancies. It has been tested and certified to meet the internationally renowned JSS 55555 and Mil Standard 461E for EMI EMC military quality standards. With three repeat orders from the Indian Army, including the largest mini-VTOL UAV contract in the world, in 2023 SWITCH UAV has won the national technology award by Department of Science and Technology, Government of India. Inspired by birds, the way they glide and fly high up in the air, ideaForge crafted a rugged structure that can withstand extreme terrains and harsh weather. Usually, fixed-wing drones require a runway, and this raises challenges for operations lacking a runway in space-constrained regions. Departing from the limitations of fixed-wing drones, the team sought to craft runway-independent hybrids, combining the endurance of fixed wings with the agility of quadcopters. This innovation allows for remarkable endurance and operational flexibility, even in space-constrained environments.
