Schoolchildren and students will learn about careers in the agro-industrial complex at AGRAVIA 2027

From 20 to January 22, 2027 in Moscow, at Crocus Expo IEC, the AgroCampus and Career platform will operate at the international AGRAVIA and iAGRI exhibitions. Schoolchildren, students and young professionals will be able to learn about modern professions in the agro-industrial complex, take part in workshops and talk with potential employers, the exhibition organizers said.

The program is designed for three days, each dedicated to a separate area: career guidance for schoolchildren, preparing students for work in the industry, and career development in the agro-industrial complex.

The first day, January 20, will be devoted to introducing schoolchildren to modern agriculture. Participants will learn about in-demand professions and the use of biotechnology and digital solutions in the agro-industrial complex. The program includes interactive lectures, workshops, industry quizzes and professional tours of the exhibition.

The finals and award ceremonies for the participants in the Potato Boom! and Vegetable Boom! contests will also take place.

On the second day, January 21, the main focus will be on students and training personnel for the agro-industrial complex. Representatives of educational institutions and agribusiness will discuss which competencies are in demand by employers, how requirements for specialists are changing and what cooperation between universities and industry enterprises should look like.

Separate topics will include technological entrepreneurship, new professions and practice-oriented training. Students will take part in workshops on biotechnology, digital solutions and veterinary medicine, as well as tours dedicated to various career paths in agriculture.

The third day, January 22, will be devoted to employment and career development in the agro-industrial complex. Students and young professionals will be able to meet representatives of agricultural companies, learn about current vacancies, internships, candidate requirements and salary levels.

The program will include career sessions, discussion of the labor market situation and issues of training management personnel for rural areas. In addition, a business game is planned, during which participants will be able to try themselves as job applicants and HR specialists, going through the main stages of employee selection and hiring.

Throughout all three days, practical classes, meetings with industry experts and tours of the exhibition displays will be held.

The AGRAVIA exhibition covers technologies for agricultural production and product processing, while iAGRI is dedicated to innovation, digitalization, automation and robotization in the agro-industrial complex.
