After a brief icebreaker and introductions, all guests were invited to a short official opening ceremony.<\/p>\n

Aiganym Malisheva<\/strong>, the Executive Director of the Kazakhstani charitable Science and Education Foundation, said.
\n\u201cThe Foundation, the sole founder of which is Galimzhan Yessenov<\/a><\/strong>, has been engaged in charity work in the field of education for 13<\/strong> years already. 6<\/strong> of our programs support talented youth in Kazakhstan. All of them contribute to our shared mission\u2014the development of the country\u2019s intellectual potential. To date, more than 2,300<\/strong> young Kazakhstanis have used our grants for scientific research, as well as personal and professional development. This year, about 300 more individuals will join this number. From the bottom of my heart, I sincerely wish you many more victories to come. May your pursuit become a lifelong journey, just as it was for the geologist, scientist, statesman, and academician Shakhmardan Yessenov, after whom our Foundation is named\u201d.<\/p>\n

The official ceremony was followed by the presentations from the winners of the Foundation\u2019s programs.

A Kazakhstani specializing in robotics, who won a grant from the Yessenov Launch Pad Program in 2022, underwent training in computer vision at Tokai University in Japan. The participants of the meeting also watched a short video by Sayat Akhmedzhanov<\/strong>, a two-time recipient of the Yessenov Scholarship, in 2019 and 2022 respectively, who is currently pursuing a Master\u2019s degree at Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, focusing on space engineering and technologies.<\/p>\n

Liliya Tleukenova<\/strong><\/a>, the General Manager of the Career and Advising Center<\/a><\/strong> at Nazarbayev University, stated.
\n\u201cWe have been collaborating with the Foundation for more than 10 years. In the beginning, its grant recipients were mostly our students. Currently, I am pleased to note that the country\u2019s intellectual potential is growing year by year, and the geography of universities and the Foundation\u2019s grant recipients continues to expand. I look forward to seeing you as great scientists in the near future, and to welcoming the Foundation for a similar meeting at Nazarbayev University next year\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Following the presentations and a group photo for memories, the attendees moved to the training room, where they were welcomed by trainer and psychologist Yelena Amreyeva<\/strong>, who noted.
\n\u201cIt is always a pleasure to meet the winners and learn what has changed in their lives. It was especially valuable to hear from many of them that they realized how many like-minded young people with similar values and aspirations are around them. The experience turned out to be lively, enjoyable, and productive!\u201d<\/p>\n

After an intensive lecture on the basics of project management delivered by Yelena, the Foundation\u2019s beneficiaries completed a practical team assignment in a game format. The Foundation\u2019s representatives, Grigoriy Lee<\/strong> and Roman Raifeld,<\/strong> presented commemorative gifts to the participants.
