Maksim Akimov

Maxim Akimov is a Russian politician who has managed to make a brilliant career in a short time. The former history teacher fell into the circle of power of the city of Kaluga in the mid-90s. Then the official settled in the apparatus of the Russian government, and in 2018 he went up again.

The early biography of Maxim Akimov is not replete with events, details of childhood and adolescence, the official is reluctant to share information about his parents with the press. Only scanty "personal" information is known.

Maxim Alekseevich is from the city of Maloyaroslavets, which is located 60 km from Kaluga. After school, the young man decided to connect his life with the upbringing of the younger generation by entering the Faculty of History at the Pedagogical University.

Back in his student years, he got a job in a secondary school, for a couple of years he combined the position of a history teacher with teaching English and geography. Akimov also managed in his youth to pay back his debt to his homeland, having served in the Soviet army.

In the midst of perestroika, in 1994, Maksim Alekseevich radically changed his profession - he took the helm of the auditing firm "Fineart-audit". The young man was not even 30 years old when he found himself in the corridors of power. The field of activity was supplemented with one more post: Akimov was elected the head of the commission in charge of the securities market in the Kaluga region.

He presided not for long, a year later he again took off on the career ladder. Maxim took the chair of the deputy director of the regional Department of Economics and Industry, and soon became the first deputy head of the State Property Committee of the region.

Then, a talented politician, well versed in financial matters, was appointed head of the Ministry of Economic Development of the region, from there Akimov moved to the city council and replaced the head of Kaluga. In the summer of 2004, the mayor Valery Ivanov vacated the vacant position, which was occupied by Maxim Alekseevich in late autumn, having confidently won the vote.

The track record of Maxim Akimov also includes the position of Deputy Governor of the Kaluga Region. But the man never made it to the chair of the head of the region: in the spring of 2012 he was taken by Moscow as an assistant to the head of the government apparatus of the Russian Federation. After another 12 months, Dmitry Medvedev entrusted the post of first deputy to the Kaluga politician.

The range of issues that have come under the supervision of Akimov is extensive. He dealt with problems of an economic and financial nature; aspects of state property, energy, transport and communications, and industry fell under the supervision of Maxim Alekseevich. Later, he additionally supervised issues of science and high technologies, agriculture, timber industry and fishing, investment policy.

In the summer of 2016, Maxim Alekseevich was expected to be promoted: he tried on the role of a state adviser for strategic development. And in the fall, an ambitious representative of the government apparatus applied for a ministerial seat. Alexey Ulyukaev vacated the post of Minister of Economic Development, and Akimov announced his candidacy along with Andrei Belousov and Ksenia Yudaeva. However, the government gave the post to Maxim Oreshkin.

In 2017, Maxim Alekseevich was going to change his post to the governorship of the Nizhny Novgorod region. In September, the politician was on the shortlist of candidates for the vacant seat of the head of the region. And a month earlier, by decree of Dmitry Medvedev, he headed the subcommittee under the government for overseeing the digital economy innovation program.

Head of state Vladimir Putin announced the country's transition to a digital economy at the end of 2016. According to the president's assumptions, in the next 10 years, the IT industry will occupy the main place in the export industries of Russia, and therefore a special program was required, which was presented by the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications.

According to the document, in the near future it is necessary to create a system of digital democracy so that the whole country is covered by cellular communication with wireless data transmission. Every sphere of Russians' life will go digital: medicine, the judicial system, banking and even education. By mid-summer, the program was approved.

In February 2018, Maxim Akimov told reporters in more detail what awaits Russians in a dozen years. The politician said that soon plastic cards will become a relic of the past. The payment system will be built on the use of new technologies, including instant messengers. Today there are heated discussions between the representatives of banks and the Fintech association on the question of how this will appear.

The changes will also affect education, the acquisition of knowledge will become individualized, schools and higher educational institutions will have to use new educational technologies.

On May 7, Maxim Akimov was promoted to a new position. Dmitry Medvedev, speaking in the State Duma to members of United Russia, announced candidates for key positions in the government. Maxim Alekseevich was offered the chair of Deputy Prime Minister for Transport, Communications and Digital Economy. In this post, the politician replaced Arkady Dvorkovich.

The personal life of Maxim Akimov is hidden from prying eyes. Only general details are known about the official's family. The civil servant got a wife in his early youth, together with his wife he is raising two children. The politician does not maintain an account on Instagram, but his photos from various forums and business meetings appear on the social network.

In January 2020, Vladimir Putin outlined further ways for the development of civil society in Russia in his annual message to the Federal Assembly. Proposals were put forward to revise some constitutional provisions, to increase the powers of the State Duma, the Federation Council, a purely advisory body - the State Council, as well as a number of rules for the bureaucracy.

After the President's speech, Dmitry Medvedev announced the resignation of the government and the convening of a new Cabinet of Ministers. Prior to the formation of the Cabinet of Ministers, former civil servants remained in their places temporarily acting. The news also affected Maxim Akimov.

Under the new conditions, the politician continued to perform his duties in the previous regime. After 2 days, he presented a mobile application of the national project "Safe and High-Quality Roads" and held a meeting of the committee specializing in this issue. Later, the presidium of the government commission on digital development was invited to the meeting.
