Russian World-Class IT-Solutions: Our Response to Global Challenges
Magnit is a fairly unique company [...] in the sense that practically the entire IT business landscape is built on domestic solutions. [...] This is also the legacy of Sergei Nikolayevich Galitsky to a large extent. You have to understand that everything from cash registers to warehouse management, to replenishment and auto-ordering systems, to corporate systems is built on our solutions, pretty much at the heart of everything is 1C. I think that ... it’s the biggest 1C solution in the country because the volume is very high. Generally speaking, 70–80% of the entire IT landscape runs on domestic software. Nevertheless, first of all, two years ago we started a project to migrate to SAP because for our scale of business, which is 370,000 employees ... 27,000 shops, 15 million customers a day, of course, a 1C solution is in a bit of a different class, that is, for a slightly smaller business it is probably workable, but for this scale of business it is less efficient than SAP solutions

Digital Borders: How to Build Protection in a Transparent World?
Using technological advantage for political purposes is a major problem that is now only appearing. I believe the situation with Huawei is a certain wake-up call, when it comes to this problem. How can we protect our ecosystem from global technological advantage being politicized

Digital Borders: How to Build Protection in a Transparent World?
As operators, we see that since our industry is somewhat older, our rules and regulations are stricter than the ones in the Internet space or the ones concerning personal data or the ones that concern many other industries
