We are inviting all of you to join us in Technopark “Skolkovo” for two days contests! Here you can learn more about the festival and find information about how to get to the event location.

Mind the fact that registration is mandatory and every participant must have a personal laptop.

*If you are a participant of the Moscow Pre-Finals ACM ICPC Workshop 2018 you don't have to participate in the qualifying contest.
