“Being a super finalist is already a big victory. There were approximately 500 people per place in the competition, to which 160 thousand people applied. But you became the best and proved your leadership,” said Sergei Kiriyenko, First Deputy Head of the Presidential Administration of Russia and Chairman of the Competition Supervisory Board.
