Putin promised benefits to businesses buying Russian IT solutions


From 2023, Russian businesses that buy and implement domestic IT solutions will be able to claim tax benefits. This was stated by Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“Starting from January 1, 2023, when buying and implementing domestic solutions, including in the field of artificial intelligence, businesses can take advantage of tax incentives and allocate additional funds for technological upgrades,” the president said at the Journey into the World of Artificial Intelligence conference.

He stressed that the introduction of innovations should not be costly for businesses. The politician did not provide details on the amount and conditions for granting tax incentives.

In August, the State Duma submitted bill, according to which objects of foreign copyright (including foreign software) that are not represented in Russia can be “compulsorily licensed” by Russian courts. The initiative was criticized manufacturers of domestic software as not solving the problem of using foreign IT solutions in the country.

About the "compulsory legalization" of foreign software - in the material "Kommersant" "Software requires rigidity".
