Yes, membership in the association requires financial contributions, which are regulated by our Rules. The monthly membership fee is 2,000 rubles. There is also an initiation fee, the exact amount of which is approved by the Association Council. These fees are the basis for supporting operational activities, organizing closed events, supporting project initiatives, and developing the community's infrastructure. Upon reasonable request, payment deferrals or installment plans may be considered.

That's entirely up to you. You can be a passive observer, with access to materials and a contact list, or an active participant in working groups and projects. The minimum commitment is to attend the General Meeting once a year. Most members spend between 4 and 12 hours a month on networking, events, and projects because they find value in them.

Absolutely. Geographic location is not a barrier. Many of our events are held in a hybrid format, and project work is often conducted remotely. The community is international, and we value diverse geographic perspectives.

There isn't one. Our primary criteria are outstanding achievements and the potential for interdisciplinary dialogue. Our members include world-renowned scientists, technology entrepreneurs, renowned artists, and strategic managers. What unites them is not their position or age, but their depth of thought and desire to go beyond their expertise.

Yes, confidentiality is one of the cornerstones of our trust. All internal discussions, especially in working groups, are governed by a non-disclosure agreement (NDA). We create an environment where half- baked ideas and complex problems can be discussed without fear of leaks.

No, these aren't social gatherings. These are event formats that exclude outsiders: strategic sessions on unresolved industry issues, masterminds addressing participants' personal professional challenges, workshops with leading global experts invited exclusively for our circle. The value lies in the depth and
sincerity of discussion, impossible in an open format.

If that's your primary motivation, you'll likely be uninterested. We're not a platform for quick networking or direct sales. The value of connections here comes from working together on complex problems, mutual respect, and long-term professional dialogue. The most significant collaborations take months to mature, but prove far more lasting and productive.

A rejection isn't a permanent decision. Most often, it means that your current professional profile doesn't fully align with the committee's internal criteria or the community's current priorities. We recommend reapplying later, when your recognition is more convincing.

No. This approach would violate the confidentiality and exclusivity we guarantee our members. However, you can ask us any clarifying questions directly via the contact form. The most honest way to "try it out" is to carefully review the description of the mission, principles, and formats on this website.
If they resonate with you, it's worth applying.
