Federal territory "Sirius", University "Sirius"

Sirius University in Sochi, Russia, aims to develop a master plan for the two science and technology zones within the Sirius Federal District. “Sirius” (pronounced “Sirius”) is a unique region established under the directive of President Vladimir Putin, designed to systematically identify and nurture talent while implementing projects across science, high technology, education, culture, and sports.

The Sirius Federal District is situated on the Imereti Lowland along the Black Sea coast, between the Mzymta and Psou rivers, surrounded by the Caucasus Mountains and nature reserves. It serves as a distinctive platform for advancing groundbreaking scientific and technological initiatives. Within the framework of its socio-economic development strategy, priority is given to attracting researchers, technology companies, entrepreneurs, and professionals in the arts and sports, thereby fostering an enabling environment throughout the federal district. To achieve this goal, it is essential to create a competitive ecosystem that offers high-quality living conditions and stimulates the flourishing of creative and research activities.
