Major Russian tech companies are merging their B2B divisions
The Russian Ministry of Digital Development has officially confirmed the merger of two major technology divisions: Yandex B2B Tech and VK Tech. This decision is aimed at optimizing the companies' operations in the field of cloud technologies and corporate services. It is expected that the merger will help create a more powerful infrastructure for Russian business.
Currently, both companies are actively developing cloud platforms that allow Russian firms to store data and use modern tools for their operations. Combining resources will allow the companies to implement new technologies faster and offer clients higher-quality digital solutions. This is an important step toward strengthening the independence of the Russian IT sector.
Experts note that the merger will primarily affect corporate clients. Companies that use Yandex and VK services for business will gain access to a unified ecosystem of services. This will simplify the process of transitioning to domestic software, which is a priority task for many Russian organizations in the current environment.
Details of the deal and the timeline for completing the integration have not yet been officially disclosed. Representatives of the Ministry of Digital Development emphasized that the state supports such initiatives, as they contribute to the development of competitive digital products within the country. In the near future, the companies are expected to present a roadmap for merging their technology platforms.
Thus, the Russian cloud services market is awaiting a major transformation. Combining the expertise of two giants of the IT industry could significantly change the rules of the game and accelerate the digital transformation of business in Russia.
