The details of the transaction are not known, but it is obvious that the share of the arrested owner of "T-platforms" in this organization has been reduced to a minimum, and possibly to zero.

RUSNANO and the company" H2 Clean Energy " at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum signed an agreement on the joint development of projects in the field of hydrogen energy.

The State Corporation "Roscosmos" supported the scientific project of OmSTU to create new samples of electrothermal engines for nanosatellites weighing 4 kg or more. The scientists plan to develop and manufacture new samples of fuel automation elements of the corrective propulsion system and new samples of micro-motors based on the NTC "Cryogenic Technology".

Flight tests of Russian ion engines are planned to be conducted in 2025-2030, according to the Keldysh Research Center (part of Roscosmos).

GlobalFoundries has signed a contract with the Pentagon to supply several batches of chips for the US Army. Their purpose is unknown, and the first shipment is scheduled for 2023. All chips will be 45-nanometer, although by 2023 the main chip suppliers are going to master the 3-nanometer process.

A team of scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has developed a new type of Kevlar-based molecules that can self-assemble into long strands. Their thickness is only one nanometer, while the length and area can vary depending on the tasks set. The first experiments showed that these thinnest threads are incredibly strong, and therefore have a wide range of potential applications.

Sergei Sobyanin launched the construction of the Moscow State University's Vorobyovy Gory innovation cluster, the Moscow Mayor's Office reported. Previously, investments in this project were estimated at 20 billion rubles.

At Petrozavodsk State University (PetrSU), with the support of the Fund for Infrastructure and Educational Programs (FIOP), the RUSNANO Group has completed the development of a professional development program for specialists engaged in the design and production of the element base of radiophotonics with nanoscale components. In February 2021, the training of a pilot group of employees of JSC OKB-Planeta (Veliky Novgorod), which acted as the customer and industrial partner of the educational project, will begin. The new program became the seventh joint project RUN and the University.
