About the event
Sanctions-related discontinuation of software services and hardware deliveries pushes businesses in Russia to review the risks and develop a mitigation strategy.
Several major software and hardware vendors already restricted both activities and access to their products. Existing clients will continue to be served "within the framework of contractual obligations", but only to the extent that sanctions and export controls permit.
Join us on April, 26 for an interactive panel on IT plan B for Russia, deeper understanding of available options and face-to-face talk to your peers.
