With an explosion of color, music and youthful energy, the 45th WorldSkills Competition has begun in spectacular style in Russia.
It was clear from the moment the teams entered the Kazan Arena to a roar of delight from the packed stands, that the Opening Ceremony for WorldSkills Kazan 2019 would be an occasion to remember.
Among those watching were the Prime Minister of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev and Simon Bartley, President of WorldSkills and many other distinguished guests.
“Russia hosts a global-level skills competition for the first time, and we are very proud of that”, said Mr Medvedev.
“The WorldSkills Competition has become far more than just a youth contest. In fact, it has grown into a competition for the future, forming a diverse multicultural and international platform where participants can work, compete, and communicate.”
Mr Bartley told the competitors: “We have great expectations for the next days; our anticipation heightened by that marvelous opening ceremony and the sight of all those young people carrying the flags of so many nations, but also the hopes of their generation.”
“What they show, and what we say, loud and clear, is that Skills Change Lives, that they can transform societies and economies, and bring prosperity and stability across all the World’s continents,” he continued.
