Forward contracts and 220 billion rubles of investment: how does the country help its IT companies?
At the RBC Tech Forum "Technological Breakthroughs in New conditions: first results" the Minister of Digital Development of the Russian Federation Maksut Shadaev said that Russian companies have only 10% of foreign IT solutions to replace, while some analogues from developers from the Russian Federation are still in operation.
"In general, we have an acute need for about 10% of those solutions that were supplied by foreign manufacturers, some of them are already in operation, they have been granted grants," the head of the department said.
According to Shadaev, forward contracts were signed with buyers of domestic solutions, and the total amount of state support amounted to "just over 20 billion rubles, while the volume of their investments is more than 200 billion rubles."
He also expressed the opinion that the current strategy of replacing foreign IT solutions was successful.
