The Children of Asia International Sports Games became a springboard for many famous athletes into the world of professional sports. After victory, young athletes receive their cherished medals, which encourage them to reach more and more new heights. Read the story about their unique features and the history of creation of medals in our article.
Not everyone knows, but the only award partner of Children of Asia International Sports Games since 1996 has been Dialog-Konversiya Association. It is considered to be the largest manufacturer of award and souvenir attributes in Russia and CIS countries.
According to the Deputy Director of Dialog-Konversiya, Konstantin Yurievich Volchinsky, the wide range of production and personalisation technologies of the Association allows it to produce not only exclusive medals for the Games, but also various souvenirs.
-“We have been working with the Children of Asia International Sports Games since 1996 - from the very beginning. And we have been cooperating closely ever since. We have not missed a single event, we produced for each event. Aside from award attributes, we also develop various souvenir products” - he said.
It should be noted that innovative approaches were used for the first time in the work on medals for the Children of Asia across Russia.
-"What we like most is that the Children of Asia International Committee is not afraid to try something new. In various years, we first implemented certain technologies specifically for Children of Asia Games products. For instance, it was during the 2012 Games when we created some of the first medals in Russia with a combination of optical glass and metal. In addition, it was at the Children of Asia Games that some of the first full-colour Jacquard tapes for medals in Russia appeared," said the Deputy Director of Dialog-Conversiya.
As noted in the company, the cooperation with the Children of Asia International Committee is a truly joint work: starting from an idea and ending with its realisation.
-"We are always involved both in the whole concept of awards and souvenir collections and in innovative approaches to realisation. We jointly bring our work to the result, which is always produced at a very high level. Thanks to the customer's engagement, our designers create a truly unique and well-designed product without any interruption from the production specifics", emphasised Konstantin Yurievich Volchinsky.
This year the design of medals is inspired by Yakut national motifs, embodied in smooth lines with the outline of the Siberian Crane's feather. The Siberian Crane is a symbol of lightness, honesty and generosity. The central element of each medal is a serge (hitching post), which takes a special place in Yakut culture.
