Holding tournaments to celebrate honoured sportspeople who have played a significant role in the development of their sport is an important way of strengthening traditions.

Padel continues to gain popularity among the business community. This new sport is similar to tennis but is accessible for absolutely everyone, regardless of age, gender, or athletic ability.

The atmosphere of padel promotes informal business communication and networking.

The Padel Cup, organized by Match TV and the Russian Padel Federation, will be held in a 2x2 team tournament format, with the participation of eight pairs.

Access to the event for participants and guests is by invitation only.

Hockey at SPIEF is always a thrilling game, a storm of emotions and breathtaking suspense.

For the second year in a row, the Roscongress Cup tournament will be held as part of the Forum. Traditionally, teams of politicians and businesspeople, reinforced by hockey legends and other sporting stars, will take to the ice. The Champion team, picked from the sports and business community supported by the Roscongress Foundation, for successful people from different areas of life, will be a serious adversary for them. It should be noted that ahead of the SPIEF tournament, the Champion team successfully debuted in the Media Hockey League.

The idea behind this award is that sporting heroes honour business leaders for their support of the industry at SPIEF, the main business event of the year. Former athletes Alexander Karelin, Vladimir Salnikov, Elena Vyalbe, and Svetlana Zhurova took part in the debut ceremony at SPIEF 2023.

The second ceremony promises to be no less high-profile. It will be in the style of ‘thea-jazz’, jazz concerts with elements of theatre, invented in the 1920s by singer Leonid Utesov. The aesthetics of this trend, which continued through the 1930s, accompanied the birth of the Soviet national sporting system. It was then that the foundation was laid for the triumphant appearance of Soviet athletes in the international arena after the Great Patriotic War (World War II). It was also during the era of ‘thea-jazz’ that the nation’s industrial giants, which played a key role in boosting Soviet sport, emerged.

This year’s traditional running event at SPIEF will be held under the motto ‘Towards the Friendship Games’ and will kick off a series of runs supporting the global project of Russian sports.
Early in the morning on the first day of SPIEF’s main programme, Forum participants and city residents will run 5 km, starting from St. Isaac’s Cathedral. Leaders of business and top politicians, including representatives of foreign delegations, will join in.
Umar Kremlev, President of the International Boxing Association and the visionary behind the World Friendship Games project, will participate in the opening ceremony of the run and then join the run through the historic centre of St. Petersburg.
The run, the largest event in this year’s SPIEF Sport Games, is organized by the Roscongress Foundation and the League of Heroes, with support from the Ministry of Sport of the Russian Federation.
Winners and medallists will be determined among both SPIEF participants and city residents. The results of the corporate team competition will also be announced. The largest teams will be from Avito and Kismet, each with over 50 participants registered.

With the support of the high-tech fuel brand G-Drive, the Russian Special Olympics team will also take part in the race.

For the second consecutive year, participants can choose to run in an excursion format and learn interesting stories about notable landmarks along the race route.

Access to the event for participants is by prior registration only.
