On 21 September 2024, Moscow Chess Club hosted the third “Federation Cup – 2024” All-Russia Corporate Chess Tournament. Orion took part in the contest. Our team included Partner and chess master Evgeny Zelensky, Kamilla Goncharova, Knowledge Management Director, and Associate Ivan Ilyin. 

The competition was held as an individual and team championship, with time control – blitz (5 minutes +3 seconds for each move), in two categories: A (no restrictions on participant ratings) and B (with rating restrictions).

Orion was the strongest of the 20 teams in Tournament B. Evgeny Zelensky also became the winner in individual score.

Overall, the Cup brought together 28 teams from five Russian cities. Orion turned out to be the only law firm among the tournament participants.
