The date of foundation of Pyatigorsk State University is considered to be June 27, 1939, when the Pedagogical School officially became a higher educational institution. Since then, the university has undergone various changes and transformations - an increase in the number of years of study, several renamings - and officially became known as Pyatigorsk State University in 2016. Since 2005, the head of the university is Professor Gorbunov Alexander Pavlovich. By 2009, 10 faculties were formed at the university. Further, on their basis, institutes and higher schools were created, having one of the faculties in their composition. In addition, PSU is actively developing the system of pre-university, postgraduate and additional education. It has a branch in Novorossiysk. Currently, the university has 34 departments. Now Pyatigorsk State University has more than 5,500 students and 3,000 students from different regions of Russia and foreign countries. All the peoples of the Caucasus are also represented in PSU.

Pyatigorsk State University held entrepreneurship training sessions for students. Two days of intensive work, new ideas, and vibrant emotions followed.

Participants explored the topic, simulated the creation of their own project, and learned about opportunities for further development. Everyone was able to choose their own path: some joined the team of an existing project, others designed or launched their own startup, and still others received the necessary resources to realize their idea.

Experts carefully selected the materials, evaluated the programs, and compiled cutting-edge cases and trends in tech entrepreneurship. Participants gained the knowledge that aspiring startuppers truly need.

These two days included the training program "Technograd: Startup Creation"—a life-simulating game that allowed everyone to discover their potential and abilities.

The training sessions are part of the University Technological Entrepreneurship Platform, part of the federal project "Technologies" and part of the national project "Efficient and Competitive Economy."
