At the recent Plenary Session on the Digital Industry of Tomorrow: Moving from Data Acquisition and Storage to Real Production Benefits, representatives of government authorities, IT companies and manufacturing industries discussed the key challenges and priorities of digital transformation. The speakers were in agreement that digitalisation is not a goal in itself, but a tool for achieving technological leadership, increasing productivity and sustainable growth of the national industry.

Vladimir Dozhdev, Head of the Digital Technologies Department of the Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade, spoke at the plenary session and emphasised the importance of choosing local IT solutions.

“When we are shaping any IT landscape today, we have to choose Russian solutions that are compatible with each other. Often we work with enterprises that have already developed their own architectures. And in this regard, of course, we must look closely at the issue of data continuity throughout the entire lifecycle, work on standards, protocols and data transfer formats,” said Vladimir Dozhdev.

The session was attended by Igor Skobelev, CEO of CIFRUM (Rosatom State Corporation), Pavel Grinevich, Technical Director of Zyfra Group, Alexandr Romanov, Director of the Department of Digital Transformation of Machine Building of LANIT Group, Pavel Rastopshin, CEO of Ultimatech, and other executives and experts of leading industry enterprises.
