Oriented on making people closer

And this time we will start with the multifunctional word "So..."

So, we are close to the last round of our educational contest "Export Activities".

Although, test pilots, submariners, sappers and other representatives of risky professions do not like this word - "last". Apparently, out of a sense of reasonable superstition, no matter how paradoxical the last may sound... that is, an extreme phrase.

In the course of the intellectual competition everything changed - questions, nominees, winners... What remained unchanged was the quiz, which during the year slowly but persistently moved towards its final.

So, today, August 3, starting from 00 o'clock and till 24 o'clock of the same day, in other words - within 24 hours those who have registered will have an opportunity to answer 30 questions, each of which has two answer options. One of them will be correct.

Furthermore: those who have not registered through the link yet, can still do so, and then submit their answers until the deadline.

It is delightful that and this time new names appeared among the participants, what is more, from different regions of the country.

Also admirable is the persistence of those who, not for the first time, are on the path of intellectual battle with rivals and with themselves, testing their knowledge and ability to find the right answer in the whole pile of literature stored in the materials of our "To Help Exporters” rubric.

Among the usual managers, business analysts, and exporters, as well as teachers, students, and directors, there are even real prospectors... of our rich subsurface resources. Internet and TV journalists joined this group a little earlier. All in all, it's a diverse and tough bunch.

To whom will the crowned Nika - the ancient Greek goddess of victory - smile? By the way, She is befitting the Roman goddess of victory named Victoria! Her name is still closer to us. And why? Guess in three tries, but we warn you that there are no prizes or gifts for this.

Instead, the leaders of the fourth round of the quiz will receive them. And the winner, who will be chosen by a sturdy but fair jury based on the results of the whole game, will become the owner of the precious Grand Prix.

It will be awarded on Saturday of next week.

We would like to remind you that the Export Activity contest is a collaborative project of the ORIENT website and the USAID Central Asia Trade Program within the framework of the Export Ecosystem Development Initiative. So, believe it or not, this concludes our cognitive contest, simply put - the finish of the epistemological process.

Good luck to everyone in the last... that is, in the final round!
