Whilst the idea of the administrative centre and the international financial centre formed part of Medvedev's initial proposition, Skolkovo has been included within the expanded borders of the city and is now discussed as an innovation pole of the polycentric city which warrants a joint examination of these projects under the wider umbrella of Big Moscow.
