In particular, this contribution manifested itself in the following: 1) provision of a number of professors and lecturers over the last dozen of years; 2) academic education provided to the students, mainly of economy, out of whom a number turned out to become individual researchers and scientists; 3) longtime support given to the School founders in their attempts to obtain academic rights for the School.
