From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

US Education Fair Moscow is the first social-oriented and non-commercial exhibition project covering all the segments of US education ― from K-12 to higher. The project takes place in Moscow.[1]

Mission

[edit]

To improve competitiveness of Russian managerial personnel, help find fresh knowledge and ideas in humanities and technological areas, to provide additional impetus to the development of cultural and educational exchange between Russia and the United States, thereby strengthening bonds of collaboration and trust shared by those two countries.[2]

The venue

[edit]

One of the most storied exhibition grounds in Moscow, Sokolniki Exhibition and Convention Centre located in the like-named park, will serve as the event's venue.
