Alexander Saurin, General Director of the all-season Gorki Gorod resort, participated in the business breakfast, one of the most prestigious events held during the forum. Discussions focused on resort fees, the significant growth in domestic tourism in recent years, and the overall prospects for tourism development.
On November 23, the annual International Forum "Tourism Safety - South" (TSIF-SOUTH-2018) was held at the SIFT venue. The forum, using the Gorki Gorod resort as a case study, addressed issues of technical safety, anti-terrorism security, rescue services, and ski resort classification.

The resort utilizes only the most advanced technologies for avalanche prevention, video surveillance, cable car monitoring, and maintaining security in hotels and on the slopes.
