The International BRICS Future Forum “Cloud City” will be held at the Zaryadye Concert Hall in Moscow on September 18-19, 2024. The event will bring together government leaders, business representatives, scientific communities and influencers from over 30 countries. The forum's experts will form the agenda of the cities of the future development, expand the geography of international partnerships and present innovative technologies and solutions for megacities.
The annual forum will gather over 300 global experts from BRICS countries, the Middle East, Asia, Latin America, Africa, and the CIS. The forum will also feature the unveiling of the Urban Innovation Environment Index 2024 and a ceremony for the World Innovation Award.
Moscow will once again serve as a venue for sharing international expertise prior to the BRICS summit in Kazan this October.

Experts will discuss projects that will determine the future of urban infrastructure development, such as the smart city concept, fintech, retail and ecology.
Among the invited speakers of the business program are city leaders of the BRICS countries, global influencers and founders of key technology companies and startups. The forum participants will have access to an exhibition at the Zaryadye Concert Hall dedicated to the cities of the future: visitors will get acquainted with innovative technologies and modern approaches to urbanism. For the first time the forum will feature an art space showcasing the latest ecological innovations from Moscow-based companies.
