Out of forty

There are 40 mega-regions which produce most of world's wealth, generate majority of patents and attract the best scientists. Others regions have been unsuccessfully trying to copy these mega-regions. The problems are huge difference in culture tradition and history, making it impossible to simply copy them. This paper describes a model of practical education, which will help "out of forty regions" to develop faster. The main idea is to build trans-disciplinary teams of students and seniors with rich experience in different topics. These teams will try to resolve problems, develop new products or services. IPAK and Inova4t successfully realized a pilot project in which students from together with senior scientists and businessmen developed software package to support people with speech imperatives. In future we plan to realize several similar projects, with the aim to generate commercial products. Such approach could be used for faster development of "out of forty" regions.
