Gasan Gasanbalaev, Deputy General Director for Social Development at the FEDC, commented on the award ceremony for the FINAWARD award. "This is a significant event for the filmmakers, the issuer, and the entire system of support for creative industries in the Far East. It is especially valuable that the joint project between the Far East and Arctic Development Corporation and the Tokeon platform received such high praise, on par with such leading banks as Alfa-Bank and T-Bank. This is the best illustration of the effectiveness of the agreement signed at the EEF 2025.
Recognition from the professional community paves the way for replicating the model. Following the Yakut film project, other creative economy projects in the Far Eastern Federal District could be funded, from IT developments to the hospitality industry. "I congratulate the RTI and Tokeon teams and thank the award's expert council for their objectivity!" said Gasan Gasanbalaev.
