Russian leaders in software development come to Germany
The unique opportunity to meet with major leaders of Russian software 
development market will appear in late October 2003. The Russian IT 
"best of the best" come to Germany in the framework of a "road show" 
organized by Consortium Fort-Ross and RUSSOFT Association together 
with BITKOM. 12 Russian software development companies will 
participate in a 10-days long program which includes presentations 
and B2B meetings in three major German IT centers - Hamburg, Munich 
and Berlin.
The goal of the road show is to demonstrate the benefits of the 
"technological partnership" with Russian software development 
companies. Many well-known corporations in Europe have been already 
enjoying benefits of placing their software development to Russia and 
of using the brainpower of Russian mathematicians and software 
engineers. During the road show presentations German attendees will 
be provided with concrete examples of such co-operation and will 
learn how the partnership with Russian software companies had helped 
their colleagues to develop better software, to solve IT problems and 
to reach their market goals.
Some examples provided by the road show participants:
Reksoft company from St Petersburg has a very good experience of 
working with Alcatel. The challenge was to carry out the comparative 
analysis of the functionality, architecture, scalability and the 
technical support quality of the tools for UMTS network planning 
available on the market. The analysis was intended to help Alcatel to 
find the most appropriate network planning tool. The possible 
alternatives were to buy, make or outsource the necessary software 
tool. The project team had no access to the source code of the 
existing systems at the customer's side. The independent and in-depth 
analysis, prepared by Reksoft, ensured that Alcatel had the right 
strategy in selecting the network planning tools and helped the 
customer to optimize the costs to implement the strategy.
Another road show participant, IBA company from Minsk, Byelorussia, 
has very broad competence of working with German business and 
government authorities. IBA programmers/analysts provided production 
maintenance, software development and enhancement activity for legal 
proceedings information system MAJA in support of Ministry of Justice 
located in one of the German Lands. This system runs on an AS/400 
platform. IBA specialists provided new release development; 
maintenance, enhancement, system performance analysis and performance 
improvement for current release.
The organizer of the road show, National Software Development 
Association (RUSSOFT) and Consortium Fort-Ross, see their own role as 
promoters of Russian software industry abroad which helps software 
companies from Russia gaining more customers. RUSSOFT and Fort-Ross 
forge a bridge between German customers and Russian developers. They 
have deep knowledge of internal functionality of the participating 
companies and is able to recommend the most suitable partners for 
potential customers. Fort-Ross is a marketing arm of the RUSSOFT 
which has the partnership agreement with BITKOM Association. The road 
show in October is a part of joint RUSSOFT-BITKOM activities 
formulated into the agreement. It is also a first European "Russian 
IT Season" that RUSSOFT and Fort Ross are arranging since 2002 after 
a very successful implementation of the first two IT seasons in the 
United States (please, look at the web-site http://www.it-seasons.ru).
