Cross-cutting technology end-to-end technology

Definition and listing of end-to-end technologies

Within the framework of the National Technology Initiative (NTI), end-to-end technologies were identified as key scientific and technical areas that have the most significant impact on the development of markets. In fact, cross-cutting technologies include those technologies that simultaneously cover several trends or industries.

The program "Digital Economy of the Russian Federation," approved by Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev in 2017 and by 2019 is no longer valid, provided a list of the main end-to-end digital technologies:

• big data;
• neurotechnology and artificial intelligence;
• distributed registry systems;
• quantum technologies;
• new production technologies;
• industrial internet;
• robotics and sensory components;
• wireless communication technologies;
• virtual and augmented reality technologies.

It is envisaged to change the list of such technologies as new technologies emerge and develop.

The new national program "Digital Economy of the Russian Federation," approved at the end of 2018, does not provide a list of end-to-end technologies, but within the framework of the federal project "Digital Technologies," roadmaps were developed on technologies of artificial intelligence, robotics, big data, distributed registry systems, quantum technologies, new production technologies, industrial Internet, wireless communications, virtual and augmented realities.

The required amount of budget financing for the implementation of 9 roadmaps was initially estimated at 547.12 billion rubles (without implementation in industries )/647.32 billion rubles (with implementation in industries). After the adoption of the ANO "Digital Economy" of 4 road maps in May 2019, the chairman of ^[1] supervisory board of this organization, Andrei Belousov, reported that about 220 billion^[2] were allocated to the federal budget for work within the framework of road maps on digital end-to-end technologies^[3].

Financing

The road maps describe various support tools, including grants, subsidizing the interest rate on the loan, allocating funding according to the model of state support for programs of activities of leading research centers (PERSONS), the development and implementation of industrial solutions, etc.

To allocate funding, it is assumed to appoint a number of support operators depending on the type of technological tasks. They should be: Ministry of Industry and Trade, Ministry of Communications and Digital Development, RVC, Skolkovo Foundation, Russian Information Technology Development Fund, Innovation Assistance Fund, Russian Venture Company (RVC).

Customers can receive support, including industry and regional, development companies and small business developers, etc.

Competitive selection of projects that can receive funding, and the conditions of support operators should be announced in October-November, specified TAdviser in. Ministry of Digital Development On October 10, this has already been done [[Russian Venture Company (RVC)|RVC, announcing a competition for the provision of grants for state support of programs of activities of leading research centers^[4].

2023: The government has included 10 end-to-end technologies in the concept of technological development of Russia

In early April 2023, it became known that the Russian government had formed a list of important areas of the country's technological development until 2030. The list includes ten end-to-end technologies and eight areas related to improving the industrial segment.

The Kommersant newspaper notes that the list had to be revised due to the current geopolitical situation. Due to the departure of a number of foreign companies from Russia, difficulties arose with the supply of complex imported equipment. Industry participants say that in such a situation, domestic companies and enterprises are forced to engage in "catching up" import substitution - the development of telecom equipment to replace the solutions of Ericsson and Nokia, industrial software (instead of SAP, Oracle, etc.), products for the aviation sector - after the refusal of supplies and services Boeing and Airbus, as well as systems for the energy sector - instead of the main supplier Siemens Energy.

The final list of end-to-end technologies includes artificial intelligence; modern and promising mobile communication networks; quantum computing; quantum communications; new industrial software; New system-wide software energy storage systems; hydrogen power; promising space systems and services; technologies of new materials and substances. "Road maps" have already been formed for these categories.

It is said that a total of 12 end-to-end technologies are included in the updated list: at the same time, Genetics and Intellectual Energy Systems are developing within the framework of state programs. Eight more areas are being considered by the government for further development of agreements with companies that are supposed to be involved in projects for their implementation. At the same time, the development of some areas, in particular, neurotechnologies, had to be abandoned.

In many ways, the evolution of the list is also better explained by the isolation of Russian science and the inaccessibility of advanced equipment, which forced the authorities to divide the previous ambitious goals into unenforceable in the near future (they left the list) and executable partially at the base available in the Russian Federation (they were regrouped according to this principle), - said in the publication of the newspaper "Kommersant."[5]

2022: Ministry of Digital Industry prescribes responsibility for electronics manufacturers in end-to-end projects

On February 9, 2022, it became known about the revision by the Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media of the Russian Federation of the mechanism of end-to-end projects in electronics. The agency introduced the concept of a "key supplier" (a company whose goods are introduced by an anchor customer), and also prescribed the forms of its responsibility within the framework of the provided subsidy from the federal budget to Russian companies for the financial support of part of the costs associated with the introduction of domestic products of the radio-electronic industry.

As Kommersant writes with reference to the corresponding draft resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation, developed by the Ministry of Digital Science, for significant violations by the electronics supplier within the framework of end-to-end projects, it will be entrusted with subsidiary responsibility to the Ministry of Industry and Trade, and this company will also be included in the register of unscrupulous suppliers.

The ministry explained to the newspaper that the anchor company's contract with the supplier could be terminated, for example, due to evasion of the contract, repeated violations of its terms, as well as on other grounds on which suppliers are recognized as unscrupulous.

The new document also establishes the minimum term of the contract between the recipient of the subsidy and the key supplier - at least the term for the implementation of the end-to-end project.

Earlier, Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin approved the rules according to which subsidies - up to 4 billion rubles a year - will be provided for projects to introduce Russian products, which are planned to be implemented until 2025. At the same time, the company itself must invest at least 100 million rubles in the project for the entire period. In addition, the organization must undertake that the share of Russian electronics in the total volume of the project following its implementation will be at least 70%.^[6]

2021

Market participants asked the Ministry of Digital Industry to finalize the system for supporting end-to-end projects in the field of electronics

The Association of Developers and Manufacturers of Electronics (ARPE) asked the Government of the Russian Federation to finalize the support system for "end-to-end projects" for the implementation of domestic radio electronics in Russian companies. This became known on November 3, 2021.

As Kommersant writes with reference to the corresponding letter, sent, among other things, to the Ministry of Digital Industry and the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the ARPE proposes that the expert council for the selection of projects should include at least 30% of representatives of developers of Russian microprocessors. According to the executive director of the association, Ivan Pokrovsky, during the selection, it is necessary to reject projects for the introduction of products on platforms with foreign chips. Customers on their own initiative will not switch to domestic platforms, he said.

Deputy Marketing Director of the ICST (developing Elbrus processors) Konstantin Trushkin, in a conversation with the newspaper, expressed the opinion that it makes sense for the state to pay extra to customers for "non-standard" Russian platforms - for example, Elbrus or Baikal, which are difficult to implement, and not for x86 (Intel) or Power ( IBM ),

If you introduce Russian equipment on the processors of Western vendors, then what will the state pay extra for?, - said Trushkin.

According to him, by the beginning of October 2021, development centers are not part of the expert council and have little influence on the approval of "end-to-end projects," and there are cases when "end-to-end projects" are approved, where you can not use Russian processors at all.

The developers of Russian processors claim that they are ready to supply any volume of them, if it is planned in advance. Already from 2023, it is possible to meet all the needs of anchor customers, and in 2022 the already ordered Elbrus chips are enough for pilot implementations, Konstantin Trushkin added.^[7]

The Ministry of Digital Industry presented a unified scheme for managing "end-to-end projects"

The Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media of the Russian Federation plans to introduce uniform rules for the creation and management of "end-to-end projects" for the implementation of domestic electronic products and software. This became known on October 19, 2021.

As Kommersant writes with reference to the corresponding draft order of the Government of the Russian Federation developed by the Ministry of Digital Science, the document describes the circle of participants in the process, the procedure for selecting and considering the "end-to-end projects" themselves, as well as the rules for their implementation and subsequent control.

As stated in the explanatory note, the project should contribute to the development of the radio-electronic industry and "the related industry of creating and implementing software."

According to the scheme, 11 specially created competence centers (Central Committee) are engaged in the primary selection of projects in the proposed design, which will include consumers, integrators, scientific centers and manufacturers. Their work will be carried out according to already approved methodological recommendations describing the requirements for projects (volume from 500 million rubles) and anchor customers (Russian legal entity, significant market participant, etc.).

The publication writes that the projects selected in the competence centers are transferred above - to the public expert council on the use of radio electronics in the sectors of the economy. The Council may reject the project, return it to the Central Committee for revision or submit it to the Presidium of the Digital Development Commission for approval.

Approved projects are already going down to the Ministry of Industry and Trade - the department distributes subsidies to anchor customers for the implementation of projects and monitors their implementation. The Ministry of Digital Industry, in turn, plans to finalize measures to stimulate demand for electronics with the participation of the public council.^[8][9]"

3.2 billion rubles will be allocated to five NTI competence centers

On July 15, 2021, at a meeting of the working group on the development and implementation of the National Technological Initiative (NTI), chaired by First Deputy Prime Minister Andrei Belousov, it was decided to expand the list of end-to-end technologies.

According to ANO Platform NTI, in the fall of 2021, the selection of companies that will become centers of competence for new areas will begin: molecular and bionic engineering to create new smart prostheses, the development of functional materials with specified properties (for example, coatings with self-cleaning properties), the development of hydrogen technologies and advanced methods of ensuring information security.

It is planned to allocate 650 million rubles for each direction within five years within the framework of the national project "Science and Universities." The funds will be directed to support the activities of new centers: remuneration, purchase of equipment and software for the upcoming work. Centers will use them even after the end of grant support.

Competitive selection will be carried out by the NTI Foundation. The base for competence centers will be selected, including based on the specifics of the project.^[10]

The government approved a roadmap in the field of Internet technologies

At the end of July 2021, the government commission on digital development, chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko, approved the roadmap for the development of new communication Internet technologies (NKIT).

The document was developed by Rostelecom as part of the implementation of the federal project "Digital Technologies" of the national program "Digital Economy" and is aimed at developing Russian technologies and services in this area. The Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media of the Russian Federation is responsible for coordinating the implementation of the roadmap, the press service of the telecom operator reports.

It is noted that the roadmap is intended to create conditions for the development and development of popular domestic communication, leisure and game services, as well as technologies, solutions and products that ensure their development: search and recommendation technologies, technologies for intelligent generation and adaptation of content, technologies for recognizing generated content, as well as products and solutions based on them.

To develop communication Internet technologies and solutions based on them, a set of measures is provided until 2024, related to financial and non-financial support for NKIT projects and products at each stage of their life cycle. This should ensure a seamless transition of companies from conducting research and development work to launching the product on the market, Rostelecom noted.

Modern information and communication technologies are firmly established in our life. In order to accelerate the development of a new industry - NKIT, it is necessary to unite the efforts of all national companies and the state, - said Mikhail Oseevsky, President of Rostelecom.

He also added that the NKIT roadmap created by Rostelecom will help support domestic developers of Internet communications.^[11]

The roadmap for the development of digital design and PLM systems has been approved. 17.7 billion rubles will be needed for implementation

The Presidium of the Legal Commission on Digital Development, the use of IT to improve the quality of life and business conditions approved the roadmap for the development of the high-tech field "New Production Technologies." This was announced on July 28 by Rosatom, which developed this roadmap together with Rostec. Both state corporations are responsible for its implementation.

The document was approved within the framework of the federal project "Digital Technologies" of the national program "Digital Economy," and the Ministry of Digital Science will oversee the development of the direction "New Production Technologies."

Rosatom said that a total of 8.7 billion rubles from the federal budget and 9 billion rubles from extrabudgetary sources are planned to be spent on the implementation of the New Production Technologies plan until 2024. In 2021, the amount of financing will amount to 1.1 billion rubles.

The roadmap is aimed at developing software solutions for industry: digital design technologies, mathematical modeling, product lifecycle management and smart manufacturing.

The implementation of the roadmap will take place in five areas: support for projects for the development and implementation of industrial software, testing of Russian and foreign software, development of the development methodology and implementation of best practices at enterprises and organizations, preparation of proposals regarding changes in the regulatory framework and development of personnel potential.

For interaction between customers and developers, as well as replication of the best solutions, a single industrial platform will be created, Rosatom said.

Earlier, we created a CAD/CAE consortium to build up the potential of domestic software in the field of mathematical modeling, and within the framework of the signed roadmap, a national digital industrial platform will be created, which will ensure close interaction of developers with a large number of industrial enterprises and, thus, fundamentally change the dynamics of the development of digital services. At the exit, thanks to the platform, the state will receive unified data for industry management, expand the showcase of industrial solutions by an order of magnitude and create an opportunity to replicate best practices, Rosatom says.

Among the KPIs that need to be achieved following the implementation of the measures of the roadmap, the index of technological independence of Russia in the field of industrial software should increase from the indicator of 2021 by 15% to 60% in 2024. And, according to the document, the number of jobs with Russian industrial software should reach 1.35 million by 2024.

The maximum amount of subsidies per one end-to-end project per year will be no more than 4 billion rubles

On July 19, 2021, it became known about the initiative of the Ministry of Industry and Trade to finance and implement end-to-end projects in the field of the electronic industry. According to the plans of the department, one such project will be able to count on subsidies in the amount of no more than 4 billion rubles a year. At the same time, the maximum monetary support will not exceed 50% of the total cost.

Vedomosti writes about this with reference to the draft government decree developed by the Ministry of Industry and Trade. The document says that the implementation period of one project should not be more than 5 years.

What will be the total amount of financing for such projects, the Ministry of Industry and Trade does not say. It is only known that recipients of subsidies will be able to spend it, for example, on the development of an electronic component base, or on its implementation, taking into account import substitution programs operating in Russia.

To receive state support, organizations will need to pass a competitive selection. Its procedure and conditions for holding can be found on the resources of the department a little later.

The adoption of a new decree should stimulate the use of domestic radio electronics in final products.

At the moment, a high degree of dependence on foreign electronic equipment remains both Russian manufacturers of cars, aircraft, locomotives, ships and equipment, and Russian medicine, science, and education, the explanatory note to the project says.

According to the representative of the ministry, the coordination of the project with the interested federal executive authorities has already passed the document by July 19, 2021.

According to Vedomosti, by July 19, 2021, 12 end-to-end projects were formed in the domestic sphere of computing technologies. They are called because the products created within their framework are designed by default for certain customers. The developers take into account their wishes and requirements, and the projects themselves cover several industries.^[12]

Russia is preparing to implement 12 end-to-end IT projects for 182 billion rubles

By the end of June 2021, Russia is preparing to implement 12 end-to-end IT projects with an estimated amount of financing exceeding 182 billion rubles. This was announced by the head of the Center for Competencies of Cross-Cutting Projects in the direction of "Computing Technology," President of the Big Data Association Anna Serebryanikova.

According to her, within the framework of end-to-end projects, the efforts of Russian developers and manufacturers of the electronic component base, computer equipment, software solutions will be combined to obtain the highest quality product that fully meets the needs of consumers and customers.

According to Serebryanikova, the end-to-end projects being prepared for implementation are the transfer of the information infrastructure of Russian corporations, stationary and mobile workplaces to the base of domestic processors, and the creation of a new generation of domestic AWS, the creation of domestic software and hardware systems for corporate cloud and information platforms.

He stressed that the format of end-to-end projects is not the most effective tool for achieving the goals of import substitution in the field of computing.

As part of end-to-end projects, hardware developers are in close contact with software developers, which subsequently avoids problems associated with the incompatibility of the equipment and software itself, said Anna Serebryanikova.

Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Vasily Shpak added that end-to-end projects are an opportunity to comprehensively develop electronics at all its limits.

The anchor customers of the upcoming IT projects will be the largest telecommunications, technology, transport companies and corporations, including MTS, Rostec and Russian Railways.^[13]

2020

The commission approved road maps for the development of the Internet of things and blockchain

On December 10, 2020, it became known that the government commission for digital development approved the road maps for the development of things and blockchain developed by Rostec in the Russian Internet of Things and Blockchain. The state corporation estimated the implementation of projects at 22.4 billion and 10.1 billion rubles, respectively, including 17.4 billion and 5.6 billion rubles of financing from extrabudgetary sources.

According to Kommersant, in accordance with the roadmap for the Internet of Things, the volume of sales of Russian manufacturers in the domestic market by 2024 should amount to 207.3 billion rubles, on the external market - 2.5 billion rubles, and the number of specialists in this market should be 4.2 million by 2024. The implementation of the blockchain roadmap according to the Rostec plan should help achieve the volume of sales of solutions of Russian companies based on technology in foreign markets up to 17.3 billion rubles by 2024, and in the domestic market - up to 83.7 billion rubles.

According to an informed source of the publication, the head of the legal commission for digital development, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko, at the meeting noted the low level of elaboration of road maps, their inconsistency with other areas of the Digital Economy national program and the lack of financial and economic justification. When finalizing the documents, the comments of a number of departments were not taken into account, including the FSB, the Ministry of Economy, the Federal Tax Service, Rospatent, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Industry and Trade and others, the source said.

The Ministry of Economic Development criticized the projects for reporting on financing exclusively at the expense of the budget and development institutions, but not Rostec itself. At the same time, funds are requested that are not included in the federal project "Digital Technologies," noted in the Analytical Center under the Government.

The Russian Association of Crypto Industry and Blockchain (RAKIB) also led comments on the blockchain roadmap. Rostec indicates that by 2022 the number of master specialists in this area will be 100 people, but even if their training has already begun in 2020, by 2022 they will not appear, since specialists have been training for five years, RAKIB points out.^[14]

Rostec, Rosatom and Russian Railways will receive money from the state budget for 5G and quantum technologies instead of development institutions

In early November 2020, it became known that Rostec, Rosatom and Russian Railways will receive money from the state budget for 5G networks and quantum technologies instead of development institutions. This is stated in the new version of the passport of the federal project "Digital Technologies" of the national program "Digital Economy" of the Russian Federation.

According to Izvestia, the development of digital technologies involves two financing models:

• funds are allocated directly through state corporations, since they are responsible for the development of technologies;
• support of projects by development institutions on a competitive basis. At the same time, development institutions will independently decide which projects and technologies to support and which not.

Budget funds for quantum computing, quantum communications and 5G will be allocated to state corporations, as they are responsible for these technologies under agreements with the government, Rostec reported. The rest of the technologies will also receive funding through development institutions, the state corporation added.

According to Artem Inyutin, co-founder and managing partner of TMT Investments, the distribution of funds to state corporations instead of development institutions is fraught with risks in terms of commercial benefit and success. Development institutions through investments in startups will make everything several times cheaper and more efficient than state corporations. In information technology, state corporations will not be able to create commercially successful cases that will be in demand.

When state corporations and their contractors leave fixed assets, the criteria for assessing efficiency become blurred and the decision-making process is opaque, says Arseny Dabbach, founder of the Dsight platform. At the same time, the risks remain standard - corruption, ineffective use of funds and delay in deadlines. In this case, the authorities considered that the main beneficiaries of the implementations would be companies that have a good understanding of the topic and to which the country's leadership has confidence, he added.^[15]

3 contests have been announced to support the development and implementation of Russian IT products. Amount of support - 7.1 billion rubles

On September 22, the Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media of the Russian Federation (Ministry of Digital Media) announced the launch of tenders for grants for the development and implementation of Russian digital solutions. The operators of the support measures are the Skolkovo Foundation, the Russian Information Technology Development Fund ( RFRIT) and the Innovation Promotion Fund. In 2020, companies will be able to apply for grants totaling 7.1 billion rubles.

Grant support is carried out by the Ministry of Digital Development within the framework of the federal project "Digital Technologies" of the national program "Digital Economy." Projects participating in competitions must correspond to the priority areas of support approved by the presidium of the government commission on digital development, the use of information technologies and the conditions for doing business. Applications for all grants are accepted electronically.

The programs are designed so that a variety of projects can apply for grant support. We offer up to 20 million for startups and up to 300 million for large initiatives aimed at digitalizing business. At the same time, both IT product developers and companies implementing digital solutions can receive a grant. We invite everyone - from small development teams to big business - to participate in competitions, - said the deputy head of the Ministry of Digital Industry Maxim Parshin.

The Innovation Assistance Fund (FSI) program is focused on IT startups. Grants can be received by startup projects with developments based on artificial intelligence technologies, the Internet of Things, blockchain, new production technologies and other areas.

Young and already successful companies, as well as individuals, can apply for the grant. The size of the grant is up to 20 million rubles. With a grant of up to 3 million rubles, co-financing is not required.

The program of the Russian Information Technology Development Fund (RFRIT) is also addressed to IT developers. Grants of up to 300 million rubles can be received by projects at more mature stages. They are intended, among other things, for projects aimed at developing software, including remote services for remote work, platforms for online education or healthcare. The grant can cover up to 80% of the project cost.

The Skolkovo Foundation offers grants of up to 80 million rubles to companies for the pilot implementation of domestic digital products, services and platform solutions. Solutions based on AI, virtual and augmented reality, robotics and sensorics, new production and distributed registry technologies, as well as remote service projects can receive support.

The program is designed to help companies from different industries - industry, agriculture, medicine and others - optimize business processes. The grant can cover up to 80% of the project cost. It can be spent on developer services, equipment purchases, licenses and other costs.

Grants from the Russian Information Technology Development Fund (RFRIT) can be received by companies for the digital transformation of production and management processes. The maximum amount of grants is up to 300 million rubles. A prerequisite for obtaining them is that digital solutions must be domestic and correspond to priority support areas. The grant involves financing up to 80% of the cost of the project, it can be directed to salaries for employees, the purchase of software, equipment and other expenses.

Bortnik Fund will distribute 300 million rubles to IT startups

On September 4, 2020, the Fund for Assistance to the Development of Small Forms of Enterprises in the Scientific and Technical Sphere (FSR) announced the start of the competition "Start - Digital Technologies," held through the federal project "Digital Technologies" of the national program "Digital Economy." According to the results of the competition, the organization expects to distribute 270-300 million rubles among 80-100 winners, respectively. As a result of a similar competition, last year it allocated 234.2 million rubles to projects.

The fund plans to complete the acceptance of applications for the competition in 2020 on October 5. As part of the competition, it selects projects in the following areas:

• artificial intelligence;
• new Internet communication technologies;
• new production technologies;
• robotics and sensorics;
• internet of things;
• virtual and augmented reality technologies;
• distributed registry technologies.

Priority is given to projects with prospects for registering intellectual property abroad in accordance with the patent cooperation agreement. The amount of one grant allocated within the framework of the competition ranges from 2 to 10 million rubles. To receive grants from 3 million rubles and above, projects also need to have extra-budgetary funding in the amount of at least 50% of the grant amount.

The competition is focused on creating new and supporting existing small innovative enterprises. Enterprises should strive to develop and master the production of new goods, products, technologies or services using the results of their own scientific, technical and technological research. The results of these studies should be at the initial stage of development and have significant commercialization potential.

The competition is being implemented to increase the number of organizations implementing technological innovations, create end-to-end digital technologies based on domestic developments, introduce digital technologies and platform solutions.

The government allocates 46.3 billion rubles for the creation of analogues Zoom and Microsoft Teams

At the end of August 2020, the presidium of the government commission on digital development, headed by Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko, approved a list of end-to-end technologies for allocating state support in the amount of 46.3 billion rubles. Among them:

• multi-platform operating system with support for various processors;
• AI-based recognition systems, a platform for online education and healthcare;
• domestic analogues of services video conference Zoom and. Microsoft Teams

As told "" in To the businessman, competitions for ANO "Digital Economy" grants will be announced in early September 2020, and the support for the projects will be provided by the fund "" and the Skolkovo Russian Fund for the Development of Information Technologies (). RFRIT

46.3 billion rubles are not only grants, but also direct financing of projects, financing of venture capital funds, direct investment funds, state-owned companies, a representative of RFRIT Aleksei Boyko explained to the publication. The fund in 2020 will provide grants for 2 billion rubles, he said. Support is carried out on the principle of co-financing: the recipient must contribute at least 20% of his own funds.

Deputy General Director of Softline for work with national projects Andrei Sholokhov said that in most cases it is not possible to create analogues of Western software. He also clarified that most often grants are received by projects in the description of which "artificial intelligence" and "Internet of things" were indicated, even if these technologies were not needed.

As a result, as Sholokhov says, all the risks fall on commercial companies that will be technology owners. Such logic may be justified, for example, for cloud technologies, but they were not included in the list of "end-to-end," while those included in the list, on the contrary, are too risky for commercial investment, he added.^[16]

The first detailed road map within the framework of the Digital Technologies project has been approved

On August 5, 2020, the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications reported that the Presidium of the Government Commission on Digital Development approved the first roadmap within the framework of the federal project "Digital Technologies" (download). The Ministry of Communications is responsible for the implementation of this project. And the map was developed by the state corporation Rosatom.

This map is one of seven that should be developed by large state-owned companies in accordance with the agreement of intent for the development of certain high-tech areas, which they signed with the government in July 2019. Rosatom, in particular, oversees the direction of quantum computing.

Given the high potential of quantum computing, we count on the productive work of the state corporation Rosatom and, for our part, will provide maximum support in the implementation of the map, - quotes the Ministry of Communications Maxim Parshin, Deputy Minister of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media.

To finance the roadmap for the period until 2024, federal budget allocations in the amount of 13.253 billion rubles and extrabudgetary funds in the amount of 10.408 billion rubles are provided, of which 1.5 billion are the own funds of a high-tech company.

The approved map focuses on solving research and engineering problems in the field of quantum computing and on the formation of an ecosystem for the development of this direction. The ecosystem includes the creation of an infrastructure base, educational programs, consortia with industrial partners.

TAdviser reviewed the roadmap. The document spells out targets, priority products and technologies and an action plan for implementation. The target indicators are planned by year in such areas as the volume of production and sales in the domestic and foreign markets of products based "including domestic quantum computing technologies," the amount of research and development costs, the provision of personnel with the necessary level of qualification, quantitative characteristics of the created results of intellectual activity and scientific research.

The main technological indicators are also spelled out there, for example, the number of particles in a quantum simulator and the number of experiments/works performed on the cloud platform for quantum computing, which is planned to be created.

Priority products and services include a service for providing access to a cloud platform for quantum computing, quantum computing based on superconductors and other promising ways to implement qubits, a quantum processor based on neutral atoms, a quantum processor based on ions in traps, and a quantum processor based on photon chips.

At the same time, in the section of priority products and services, only certain items indicate the exact indicators that need to be achieved by 2023. Most of them "require clarification," follows from the roadmap. For example, the volume of sales of Russian companies in the domestic market to provide access to the cloud platform for quantum computing is indicated. The roadmap set a value of 50 million rubles in 2023 and 150 million rubles in 2024.

According to the document, by December 2023, it is necessary to develop a full stack of software for the service to provide access to the cloud platform for quantum computing and bring it to the market in the same year. And by December 2024, the development of a quantum processor with dozens of qubits without error correction codes should be completed, the launch of which is scheduled for 2025-2030.

In 2019, the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications reported that the government commission on digital development already then approved seven road maps for the development of end-to-end technologies of the digital economy within the framework of the federal project "Digital Technologies." The documents approved then described the current level of development of each of the technologies, the effects of their development and targets, necessary measures, funding, implementation dates. Among them was then a roadmap for quantum computing.

At the time of the announcement of another approval of the roadmap for the development of quantum computing in August 2020, the department explained to TAdviser that the roadmap for the development of the "end-to-end" digital technology "Quantum Technologies," approved in August 2019, is for the most part an upper-level document with a text description defining the priorities for the development of technology as a whole. It highlighted 3 subtechnologies: quantum computing, quantum sensors and quantum communications.

Based on the above-mentioned roadmap, Rosatom has developed a private detailed roadmap with a set of measures, as well as technical characteristics and targets, broken down by year, up to 2024. This is the first approved roadmap in accordance with agreements of intent for the development of certain high-tech areas concluded in July 2019 between the Russian government and state-owned companies.

And a source close to the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications says that the new approved roadmap, like other road maps being developed, can be called an expanded continuation of the previous document describing the development of this direction in a more general way. That previous map remains relevant, but the new version has more clearly placed KPIs, which implies more responsibility for the state-owned company in charge of this area, explains the interlocutor of TAdviser.

According to the source, road maps in other areas within the framework of the federal project "Digital Technologies" as of early August are still in development.

Rosatom structure and MiG Corporation received Skolkovo grants for the development of end-to-end technologies

Skolkovo has identified two more winners of the pilot project competition to transform priority sectors of the economy and social sphere based on the introduction of domestic products, services and platform solutions created on the basis of end-to-end digital technologies. They were such companies as Atomenergomash and the Russian Aircraft Corporation MiG (RSK MiG). Skolkovo reported this on May 7, 2020.

Atomenergomash won the competition with the project "Creation of a system for monitoring production equipment of the engineering division of Rosatom State Corporation," "RSK MiG" - with the project "Introduction of an automated control system for design and technological preparation of production (ASUKTPP) based on the Russian software complex at the production sites of RSK MiG."

The winners of the competition will receive grants that cover up to 50% of the costs of implementing these projects. The specific amounts of grants allocated to the winners in Skolkovo TAdviser refused to report.

The winners of the Atomenergomash and MiG competition, the interdepartmental competition commission for the selection of projects for the implementation and implementation of end-to-end digital technologies, chaired by the ex-head of the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications Konstantin Noskov, recognized December 23, 2019. However, the victory was awarded to the companies, subject to the approval of this decision at the presidium of the board of directors of the Skolkovo Foundation. Initially, it was planned to be held in January 2020. However, the presidium took place only on April 10, 2020 in an online format, - explained TAdviser in Skolkovo.

The first three winners of the Skolkovo competition, in accordance with the decision adopted on December 23, 2019 by the interdepartmental commission, were the following companies and projects:

• "Abinsk Electrometallurgical Plant," "System of management and end-to-end control of production assets during the production of metallurgical products";
• Rusagro-Invest, Equipping the Fleet of Combine Harvesters with Autonomous Control Systems Based on Artificial Intelligence;
• Chelyabinsk Pipe Rolling Plant, Occupational Health and Safety Management Platform at the Enterprise.

Special Presidential Envoy Dmitry Peskov announced a failure in the development of digital technologies

The Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications has failed the development of digital technologies, said the president's special representative Dmitry Peskov, speaking at an online conference on the restart of the National Technology Initiative (NTI).

According to him, in Russia there is still no model for managing the development of digital technologies, those responsible for this process have not been identified, road maps have not been approved, and even financing has not been determined for some of them. Digital NTI technologies work, national programs "Digital Economy" - no, Dmitry Peskov is sure.

I hope that the new government will be able to gather and build an effective mechanism for the implementation of national goals in the field of end-to-end digital technologies. So far, this mechanism has failed. So far, all the work on the development of end-to-end digital technologies is being carried by the NTI competence center, formed over the past 3-4 years, - said Dmitry Peskov.

Responsible for the implementation of the federal project "Digital Technologies" during the leadership of the Ministry of Communications and Mass Media Konstantin Noskov was his deputy Yevgeny Kislyakov. After Maksut Shadayev became the head of the ministry, Deputy Minister Maxim Parshin began to lead the project.

Ministry of Economic Development proposes to introduce a special legal regime for innovators in the field of fintech and drones

In the new version of the bill "On experimental legal regimes in the field of digital innovation," developed by the Ministry of Economic Development, the emphasis is made on fintech and unmanned vehicles. This was stated on February 17 by Anton Lebedev, Director of the Department of Legal Foundations of the Digital Economy of the Ministry of Economic Development, during a round table in the Chamber of Commerce and Industry dedicated to the draft law.

According to Anton Lebedev, the bill will affect all areas of digital innovation, but regulatory exemptions will be provided for them so far only for areas such as fintech and unmanned vehicles.

Regulatory exemptions, according to the text of the draft law available on the regulation.gov.ru, in the document is understood as non-application to the draft of a number of regulatory legal acts that introduce the obligation to undergo certain procedures. In particular - licensing, accreditation and certification.

Particular attention to fintech and unmanned vehicles is due to the fact that these areas have specific proposals for eliminating regulatory barriers that impede the development of their projects. But we are ready to consider similar proposals from other areas of digital innovation in order to consider the possibility of regulatory exemptions for them, "Anton Lebedev told TAdviser.

Alexey Frolov, Vice President for Development of the Association of Laboratories for the Development of Artificial Intelligence (ALRIA), and Alexandra Orekhovich, Director for Legal Initiatives of the Internet Initiatives Development Fund (IIDF), expressed their readiness to submit relevant proposals to the Ministry of Economic Development within the framework of the round table.

Anton Lebedev drew the attention of the round table participants to the fact that the program specially developed for the experimental legal regime pays great attention to the possible risks of the draft law. Namely, to reduce them.

The program of the experimental legal regime contains basic security elements of the risk management system, - said Anton Lebedev.

In addition, according to him, both the program and the bill itself imply mandatory informing about the introduction of an experimental legal regime. It also provides for monitoring its implementation and indicates the grounds for its suspension and termination.

Anton Lebedev also spoke about the responsibility alleged by the bill for certain violations within the framework of the experimental legal regime.

We proceed from the fact that business is most frightened not by civil liability, but by administrative and criminal liability. Therefore, from the point of view of civil liability, some additional compensatory mechanisms can be provided. Due to this, the bill provides for compensation within the framework of the experimental legal regime even for the damage caused as a result of the legitimate actions of its subjects - various kinds of organizations. According to the general legislative model enshrined in the civil code, harm caused by legitimate actions is compensated only in cases established by law. Our position is that the experimental legal regime is exactly the case that will be established by law, - said Anton Lebedev.

Public legal responsibility, according to him, will be provided for by the bill only for those violations, the ban on which in the experimental legal regime will be preserved.

In addition, Anton Lebedev explained what insurance mechanism the bill would imply.

In our opinion, the decision on whether to introduce the requirement of compulsory insurance should be applied individually when establishing specific regimes, - said Anton Lebedev.

He also drew attention to the fact that not only technologies, but also as such regulation will be tested within the framework of the experimental legal regime.

It is important to look, and the regulation itself insures some risks? Since we should not have such regulation that would not meet any risks. If in some case it turns out that the regime is proceeding calmly, that the canceled requirements did not lead to any consequences, then maybe these requirements should not be applied throughout the country? The question is subtle, since this can not always be shown by an experiment, since it is limited by the circle of participants and the size of the territory. But the draft law made an approach to this topic, - said Anton Lebedev.

Initially, the bill was submitted by the Ministry of Economic Development to the government, as Lebedev recalled, in August 2019. As a result of its consideration, the government sent a number of comments to the department, according to which it revised the bill. However, work on the draft law continues - worldism makes two separate documents out of it. The first will be devoted to an experimental legal regime for digital innovations - to introduce an appropriate organizational and legal mechanism. The second involves amendments to individual laws.

We are now separating the bill. Since it is possible to discuss amendments to certain laws endlessly and the mechanism itself, in this case, will not work, - said Anton Lebedev.

In addition, according to him, the ministry is waiting for feedback from business regarding the revised bill - both in the appropriate form of a special section of the department's website dedicated to the bill and in personal messages.

The more high-quality feedback we receive - proposals, the easier it will be for us to conduct a dialogue with another part of the state apparatus, - said Anton Lebedev.

He also emphasized that in his message to the Federal Assembly on January 15, 2020, the president pointed out the mandatory launch of an experimental legal regime for digital innovation in 2020.

We proceed from getting additional support on this bill. Therefore, we hope that, despite all the subtle questions and complexity of the topic, we will, nevertheless, move at a rhythmic pace in the direction of completing work on it, - said Anton Lebedev.

At the same time, according to him, the entry into force of the bill providing for the introduction of an experimental legal regime will take much less time than usual - six months instead of two or three years, which, according to the law, are allocated to launch an experimental regime. The document will be re-submitted to the government in February 2020.

Research Institute "Voskhod" will build a state platform for the industrial Internet of Things

Challenges and Risks to Remember While Developing AI, Big Data Technology, and IoT

On January 16, 2020, the Center for Training Leaders of Digital Transformation, formed on the basis of the Higher School of Public Administration of the RANEPA, announced that together with the Higher School of Economics, it had compiled a report on the main ethical problems and risks caused in Russia by digital technologies, as well as possible ways to solve them. ^[17]

In the report, experts presented the main problems of data ethics, artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IW).

Working with Data

As noted in the report, the majority of data market participants are business representatives who benefit from collecting as much user data as possible. By collecting, processing and selling data, companies extract super-profits. The capitalization of IT giants is billions of dollars.

It is beneficial for them to continue mass collection of data from their main resource and source of income, since it is easier for users to agree than to understand in detail what data they give, the report says.

Its authors also draw attention to the lack of information from users about the treatment of their information. According to experts, users almost never know:

• what data is collected about them;

• who and how reliably they are stored;

• how many companies, people and government agencies of which countries have access or the ability to access this data;

• what are their social connections with which other people are traced;

• how to delete your data in the databases of companies, withdraw your consent.

Privacy inflation - over time, users give more data for the same amount of services and comfort - and monopolization of the digital services market can have serious consequences, the report notes.

The state is the owner of a large number of data from citizens and organizations and in the future can collect even more of them, the authors of the report are sure. At the same time, in their opinion, the state is removed from the legislative restriction of business when circulating data, preferring to use the collected data on citizens for its own purposes.

Incorrect work with state data, according to experts, may be fraught with the following risks:

• inadvertent creation of algorithms and decision-making systems that discriminate against certain groups of the population due to insufficiently careful data selection for algorithm training;

• conflict of interests of society and individual groups of citizens and public rejection of initiatives, including due to lack of information support and preliminary work with public opinion;

• making incorrect decisions at the state level with far-reaching consequences in the form of financial, reputational and other losses for the state;

• inadvertent violation of laws by civil servants due to unethical use of data, which entailed significant damage.

The authors of the report also state a number of other negative consequences arising from State actions in relation to data:

• complexity and slowdown of development of artificial intelligence technologies as a result of regulated access to data;

• data leaks.

The authors of the report see the solution of data ethics problems in Russia in the national concept or strategy for the development of the data market, which complies with the principles, including ethical ones, of state regulation of the market and takes into account the degree of state participation.

Artificial intelligence

According to experts, it is difficult to bring ethics to the technology of artificial intelligence itself, since moral choice does not have borders clearly indicated by the norms of the law.

Therefore, in the field of artificial intelligence, the problem of the ethics of its "behavior," the so-called machine ethics, comes to the fore in a situation where the decision concerns people, and the ethical problems associated with it, the report says.

Among the identified problems, the authors of the report identify the following:

• responsibility for ethical/unethical behavior of artificial intelligence, for making erroneous decisions, damage due to failures, etc.;

The authors of the report consider various options to solve this problem: from the personal responsibility of robots to the complete release of someone from responsibility for the actions of artificial intelligence.

• bias of artificial intelligence systems in general and advisor programs in particular;

In order for the AI system to be fair, bias and biases must be excluded in the source data from which AI is trained. In practice, even with careful data preparation, this is not always possible, the authors of the report draw attention.

• transparency of solutions of artificial intelligence and privacy of user data in its application;

Experts consider the creation of standards for the development of ethically oriented intelligent systems to be one of the approaches to solving the problems of privacy, transparency and bias of artificial intelligence.

• reliability of artificial intelligence.

Standardization is designed to increase the reliability of artificial intelligence systems and set a minimum level, being below which, the system cannot be considered reliable. At the same time, this bar should not exceed the capabilities of today's technologies so that developers are not limited in the process of creating new breakthrough solutions and do not withdraw some of the technologies from the legal market, the authors of the report say.

Internet of Things

The authors of the report indicate a violation of privacy and a drop in confidence in the Internet as a whole as key problems of the Internet of Things. In addition to Internet of Things devices for personal use, which cause the largest number of ethical issues, experts pay attention to problems related to the Internet of Things in industry, trade and transport. These are problems such as the privacy and safety of personal data.

In many cases, data used for analytics is generated automatically - for example, by tracking online activity, rather than being provided consciously by people. There is a problem of covert data collection that "can be used against you." The user has to trust the Internet of Things devices connected to the network, without knowing whether the devices collect and transmit their data or not. The risk of losing the most sensitive data increases, - the authors of the report note

In addition, they draw attention to the difficulty of determining the owners of data obtained by the Internet of Things using sensors and devices, as well as the boundaries between personal information and public information. The principle of informed consent to the collection and processing of personal data obtained when using devices and services of the Internet of Things, according to the authors of the report, is ineffective in protecting user rights, as well as consent to the processing of other data.

The creation of legal mechanisms usually lags behind actual business practice. The way out is collectively developed and agreed by all stakeholders ethical standards, experts say.

Digital Ethical Solutions

The authors of the report also identify a number of common areas for solving ethical problems related to digital technologies. These are areas such as:

• provision of the required regulation;

The regulator must find a balance between supporting technological innovations and the need to protect society from possible risks associated with their implementation, experts say

At the same time, they note that in the case of new technologies, it is problematic to predict in advance all the risks that may arise when using them, and to determine as accurately as possible the likelihood of their occurrence. As a result, in their view, it is not possible to establish reasonable legal requirements and limitations for technology-related activities, so the issue of adequate regulation of such activities remains open.

• creation of ethical codes and guidelines for both certain technologies and different areas of activity;

• ensuring the availability of digital services for citizens and the creation of "analog interfaces";

A serious challenge for the state is to ensure citizens both the full availability of digital services and the creation of "analog interfaces" - options for alternative, non-digital, access to the service. In this case, the very process of providing the service remains completely digital, but the categories of citizens who do not have access to digital services receive them in the usual, non-digital, form, the authors of the report explain.

• inclusion of ethics in technology education.

According to experts, it is necessary to introduce the applied ethics of technologies into the curricula of certain digital technologies of schools, universities or additional professional education. Students, according to the authors of the report, should learn about the ethical risks and consequences of the use of technology.

From 2020, it will be possible to obtain a preferential loan for the introduction of domestic digital technologies at 1-5%

In the federal budget for 2020, 3.66 billion rubles were allocated for concessional lending to projects providing for the introduction of domestic products, services and platform solutions based on end-to-end digital technologies. These may include projects implemented either in the industries indicated in the road maps in the areas of development of end-to-end digital technologies, or in those determined by the relevant presidential decree as priority. This was stated by TAdviser on December 17, 2019 in the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications.

Roadmaps for the development of end-to-end digital technologies involve industries such as the extractive industry; exploration; manufacturing industries; agriculture, forestry, hunting, fishing and fish farming; electric power industry; transport, storage and logistics; construction; trade; hospitality; information technology and communications; finance; insurance; social sphere; health care; education; public administration; defence and security; space activities.

Preferential lending, according to the government decree on the approval of the rules for the provision of projects using end-to-end technologies of subsidies from the federal budget, is provided by banks for up to six years at a minimum rate of 1% to 5% per annum. At the same time, the Ministry of Communications compensates the authorized bank for 100% of the rate of the central bank of the Russian Federation - the difference between the preferential interest and the current interest rate of the Central Bank for the period of obtaining a loan - through the provision of a subsidy. This decree was adopted by the government on December 5, 2019.

As TAdviser was told in the Ministry of Communications, the draft order of the ministry, approving the stages of competitive selection of banks to support projects with preferential lending, is under final approval. The decision on the selection of a bank to support projects will be made by the commission, which will be approved by the internal order of the ministry.

The key criteria for the selection of banks will be a timely application for participation, as well as documents confirming compliance with general and special criteria, - indicated TAdviser in the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications.

In addition, the commission will be guided by the following criteria outlined in the relevant government decree:

• taxes, fees, insurance premiums, penalties, fines, interest paid in full;

• fully returned subsidies, budget investments and the absence of other overdue debts to the federal budget;

• absence of the process of reorganization, liquidation, bankruptcy and suspension of activities;

• the status of a Russian legal entity and the absence of foreign capital in the authorized fund;

• absence of receiving funds from the federal budget on the basis of other regulatory legal acts for purposes similar to preferential lending;

• capital availability in the amount of at least 20 billion rubles;

• availability of a credit rating not lower than "BBB- (RU)" on the national rating scale for Russia analytical credit rating agency and/or credit rating not lower than "ruBBB-" on the national rating scale for Russia rating agency "Expert RA";

• the period of activity taking into account the reorganization is at least 5 years.

The process of choosing banks to participate in the selection, as expected in the Ministry of Communications, will consist of three stages:

• placement of a selection notice by the ministry on the official website;

• acceptance and registration of applications by the Ministry;
• determination by the commission of the ministry on the basis of the relevant assessment of the banks of participation in the selection for a subsidy.

Systemically significant Russian credit organizations, determined in accordance with the established procedure, are recognized as authorized banks without selection, - noted in the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications.

The collection of applications for participation in the selection of banks for concessional lending to projects of the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications will begin in 2020. As the ministry assured TAdviser, during the development of this support mechanism, the predominant number of Russian banks expressed interest in submitting applications for participation in the selection, including key banks from the list of systemically important credit institutions.

The order of the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications, which determines the procedure for submitting and collecting applications for participation in the selection of banks for concessional lending to projects, was posted by the ministry on the official website of legal information disclosure on December 16.

RFRIT launched the acceptance of applications for grants for regional projects for the development of "end-to-end" technologies

On November 8, 2019, it became known that the Russian Fund for the Development of Information Technologies (RFRIT) launched the acceptance of applications for grants as part of the implementation of the federal project "Digital Technologies." Read more here.

RFRIT will determine the winners of the competitive selection by the end of 2020. This was announced by TAdviser on December 19, 2019.

The Government of the Russian Federation sent for revision two of the seven road maps

Two end-to-end digital roadmaps out of seven were sent for revision after two days of review by the government and companies. On December 7, 2019, Deputy Prime Minister Maxim Akimov told reporters about this on the sidelines of the Global Technological Leadership forum.

According to him, a lot of intellectual work was done in the road maps sent for deep revision, but the organizational mechanisms and the degree of study on support measures were insufficient. We are talking about quantum sensors and quantum metrology, as well as distributed registry technologies, he noted.

A RBC source who was present at the stress tests told the publication that the road maps written by the companies were severely criticized by both Maxim Akimov and presidential aide Andrei Belousov, who also came to the forum. The authors of the road maps did not expect such a close examination. The work of Rostec was especially criticized. There were also claims against Rostelecom and Sberbank, which were given two weeks to finalize the roadmap for artificial intelligence. The cards of Russian Railways and Rosatom were approved almost without complaints, the source told RBC.

Maxim Akimov said that the five approved maps included "very strong theses, strong decisions, rich material."

For example, a very large block associated with supporting the development of applications and business solutions for fifth-generation communication networks. Before that, there was only mainly a telecommunications, technological agenda. Now there is a large block related to the support and development of specific services, including industry ones, "he said.

Experts asked map developers on 5G communication technologies and artificial intelligence to finalize the document, despite their approval.^[18]

Financial support for 5G and the Internet of Things cut four times

On November 7, 2019, it became known that the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications published the final version of the roadmap "Wireless Communication Technologies." The document was prepared by the "daughter" of the state corporation "Rostec" "National Center for Informatization" (NCI) as part of the activities of the federal project "Digital Technologies" of the national program "Digital Economy of Russia."

Full texts of approved roadmaps, indicators, amounts and methods of financing

The Government Commission for Digital Development, chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Maxim Akimov, approved seven roadmaps for the development of end-to-end technologies in the digital economy, the Ministry of Digital Development told TAdviser on October 14, 2019. The documents describe the current level of development of each of the technologies, the effects of their development and targets, necessary measures, funding, implementation dates.

The total required amount of financing for the development of technologies until 2024 is about 851.7 billion rubles from budgetary and extrabudgetary sources. This amount consists of an assessment of the necessary funding for each area, taking into account the existing limits, explained TAdviser in the Ministry of Digital Development. The maximum amount required for the development of technologies according to the authors of road maps exceeds 1.115 trillion rubles.

The most money will require the development of artificial intelligence technologies - 391.7 billion rubles. This area also includes the five most expensive sub-technologies - recommendation systems and decision support systems (137.6 billion rubles), computer vision (84.7 billion), natural language processing (63.5 billion), speech recognition and synthesis (63.5 billion) and promising methods and technologies in AI (42.3 billion).

The target indicators of roadmaps are planned to be achieved by solving technological problems, launching products on their basis and introducing them into key industries.

Neurotechnology and Artificial Intelligence

Full text of the roadmap of Neurotechnology and artificial intelligence

The direction of neurotechnologies and artificial intelligence includes the following subtechnologies:

The card development operator is Sberbank.

The necessary amount of funding for the development of this area until 2024 is 391.7 billion rubles, of which 56.7 billion falls on budget funds and 334.9 billion - on extrabudgetary funds.

According to the minutes of the meeting of the Supervisory Board of ANO "Digital Economy" in May, it was recommended to exclude neuortechnology (neuroprosthetics, neurointerfaces, neurostimulation and neurosensing) from the list of priority sub-technologies and continue their development within the framework of the national technological initiative.

When achieving the target results of the roadmap, AI in Russia should become a developed industry that ensures increased competitiveness and productivity of the national economy, an increase in the quality of life of the population and an increase in the overall level of digitalization.

The development of AI technologies will ensure Russia's technological leadership both in the IT sector and in other industries, will contribute to the achievement of import substitution goals and export development, the roadmap says.

Virtual and augmented reality technologies

The VR/AR direction includes the following sub-technologies:

Map development operator - Far Eastern Federal University (FEFU).

The necessary amount of funding for the development of this area until 2024 is 66.3 billion rubles, of which 28.2 billion falls on budget funds and 38.1 billion - on extrabudgetary funds.

In the future, Russia for 4-5 years has the potential to become a visible player in the international VR/AR market and occupy more than 15% of the world market. At least three Russian companies by 2024 will be able to occupy more than 30% of one of the priority markets. As a maximum, Russian technologies will set industry standards in the world, especially in the areas of industry, medicine and education, the compilers of the roadmap are sure.

The widespread adoption of VR/AR technologies contributes to the development of the country's economy, a significant increase in productivity and efficiency at industrial enterprises within the framework of Industry 4.0, the formation of new approaches to the learning process and improving the level of education, a qualitative increase in the level of health care and the availability of medical care through the remote presence of a doctor. At the same time, VR/AR technologies create the latest methods of communication and consumer services, form mass media for the modern generation.

Quantum technologies

Full text of the roadmap Quantum technologies

The direction of quantum technologies includes the following sub-technologies:

Map development operator - MISiS

The necessary amount of funding for the development of this area until 2024 is 32.7 billion rubles, of which 26.4 billion falls on budget funds and 6.3 billion - on extrabudgetary funds.

Support for all three main sub-technologies is critical for the development of the Russian Federation, the developers of the roadmap note. From the point of view of the country's strategic interests, quantum computing technology is one of the key. Both for future markets and for state security, the effects of applying this sub-technology will be very large. Also in this area there is a risk of restricting access to products of foreign manufacturers.

In terms of technological maturity, the closest to entering the market is quantum communications technology, which ensures, among other things, national security. In this area, the country needs to have its own products with the maximum degree of localization of production to eliminate the risk of bookmarks in the equipment and, as a result, access to protected information.

New manufacturing technologies

The direction of new production technologies includes the following sub-technologies:

Map development operator - SPbPU

The necessary amount of funding for the development of this area until 2024 is 79.9 billion rubles, of which 33.1 billion are from budget funds and 46.8 billion from extrabudgetary funds.

The development and implementation of these sub-technologies is a prerequisite for the presence of domestic companies in global high-tech markets, which are characterized by a shift in the "center of gravity" in the competition to the stage of developing high-tech products, an increase in the level of its knowledge intensity, a reduction in the time for launching new products on the market, strict cost restrictions, high requirements for consumer characteristics.

At the same time, the authors of the roadmap note, the "digital twin" technology related to Smart Design is an integrator technology for almost all "end-to-end" digital technologies and sub-technologies, acts as a driver technology, provides technological breakthroughs and allows high-tech companies to move to a new level of technological and sustainable development on the way to industrial leadership in global markets.

Robotics and Sensorics Components

Full text of the roadmap Robotics and sensory components

The direction of robotics and sensorics includes the following sub-technologies:

The map development operator is Innopolis.

The necessary amount of funding for the development of this area until 2024 is 102.6 billion rubles, of which 28.8 billion are from budget funds and 73.8 billion from extrabudgetary funds.

The consistent development, introduction and dissemination of these technologies will bring the country to a qualitatively new level and have a noticeable impact on technological leadership, economic development and social progress, the roadmap says.

The development of the direction of robotics and sensorics in Russia is closely related to the development of the directions "New production technologies" and "Artificial intelligence." In some tasks of robotics, methods of computer vision and intelligent decision-making are used, the development of which is planned in the Artificial Intelligence roadmap. Industrial applications of robots and, in particular, the interaction of industrial robots with the technological process are included in the roadmap "New production technologies."

Distributed Registry Systems

Full text of the road map of the Distributed Registry System

The direction of distributed registry systems includes the following sub-technologies:

The map development operator is the Novosibirsk Institute of Software Systems (NIPS).

The necessary amount of funding for the development of this area until 2024 is 73.3 billion rubles, of which 23.1 billion are for budget funds and 50.2 billion for extrabudgetary funds.

The creators of the roadmap conducted a comparative analysis of domestic and foreign decisions, which showed that domestic decisions are slightly inferior to foreign counterparts. In this regard, Russia can become a world leader in terms of distributed register technology, the authors of the document believe.

Priority industries in Russia for the implementation of this technology were identified: financial and insurance activities, transportation and logistics, public administration, healthcare activities, manufacturing.

Wireless Technologies

Full text of the Wireless Technology Roadmap

The direction of wireless communication technologies includes the following sub-technologies:

The map development operator is the National Center for Informatization (NCI).

The necessary amount of funding for the development of this area until 2024 is 105.2 billion rubles, of which 36 billion are for budget funds and 69.2 billion for extrabudgetary funds.

The developers of the roadmap have identified the most significant technology as WAN, within which 5G stands out as a solution, the implementation of which forms 70% of the total economic effect of wireless technologies. A number of other "end-to-end" digital technologies depend to a certain extent on the development of 5G, which will provide high bandwidth, ultra-low network latency and other critical characteristics.

And the authors of the document call the most developed sub-technology in Russia LPWAN, which corresponds to the world level of technological readiness and has export potential with access to the markets of near and far abroad.

Rostec, Rosatom, Sberbank and Rostelecom signed agreements with the government on the development of breakthrough technologies

On July 10, 2019, in the Kremlin, in the presence of President Vladimir Putin, a ceremony was held to exchange agreements of intent between the Russian government and the largest organizations with state participation in order to develop a number of high-tech areas previously identified as end-to-end technologies.

In particular, agreements of intent were signed between the government and:

• Sberbank in the direction of "Artificial Intelligence";
• Russian Railways ("Quantum Communications");
• Rosatom (Quantum Computing and Technologies for Creating New Materials and Substances);
• Rostec (directions "Quantum Sensors," "Distributed Register Technologies," "New Generations of Narrowband Wireless Communication for the" Internet of Things "and Near and Medium Range Communication");
• tripartite agreement with Rostec and Rostelecom ("Next Generation Wireless Communication").

Putin at the ceremony noted that these directions determine the economy of the future not only Russia, but also the world economy. Due to their wide, end-to-end application, they can provide "a real breakthrough for Russia," the president said.

Within the framework of the agreements, "road maps" will have to be developed for each of the high-tech areas. They should contain target indicators of technological development: the volume of production and sales of products based on these technologies, the provision of scientific, technological and production infrastructure, etc.

It is also necessary to determine the amount of funding necessary for the development of these areas. According to Deputy Prime Minister of the Government Maxim Akimov, at the time of signing the agreements, there is still no budget project. As planned, he clarified, the bulk of the funds are invested by the signatory companies themselves, and the share of budget funds in percentage terms will be very small ^[19]

We expect real leadership from our largest companies - technology, personnel, financial. World experience shows that up to 80% of successful research and development is provided by the corporate sector, "Vladimir Putin said at the agreement exchange ceremony.

At the same time, the president referred to the experience of Italy, where they followed this path. According to him, Italian "colleagues" in Yekaterinburg told him about this the day before.

Right at a working dinner, they told me about this in a free conversation: we are aiming our largest companies with state participation at just such work, "Putin shared.

First road maps on end-to-end technologies adopted

On May 24, 2019, the Supervisory Board of the Digital Economy ANO reviewed and adopted four road maps for the development of end-to-end technologies, the Non-Digital Economy Telegram channel reported and confirmed TAdviser in the organization itself.

Road maps for the development of end-to-end technologies are being prepared within the framework of the federal project "Digital Technologies" of the national program "Digital Economy of the Russian Federation." On the eve of the meeting of the Supervisory Board, a public discussion of road maps was also held with the participation of a wide range of experts.

Road map development operators have attracted over 30 experts for each document being developed.

Roadmaps on end-to-end technology are due to be submitted to the government in June.

Big Data Map Developed

On May 24, 2019, the NCI announced the development of a roadmap for the Big Data.

The preparation of the Roadmap took place from March 30 to May 15, more than 250 specialists participated in the information exchange processes under the roadmap. During this time, the NCI, together with partners, held three working meetings, in which 52 experts from scientific and commercial organizations, as well as government bodies, took part. In cooperation with the market, the NCI presented an action plan for the development of big data technology, consisting of 48 events, calculated until 2024. The document forms a plan of joint actions of the business community and federal and regional executive bodies to develop and apply analysis of large amounts of data to achieve technological leadership, ensure economic development and social progress of the Russian Federation, and enter Russian companies into international markets.

The roadmap highlights six big data sub-technologies, in the logic of the development of which a document is formed. These are technologies that provide traceability and interoperability of data; software-defined (distributed) data stores; processing technologies, data disposal using AI, ML; data enrichment technologies; Technologies that ensure the use of trusted (high-quality) data for BI predictive analytics. Development goals and KPIs are defined for each of the sub-technologies

Konstantin Solodukhin said:

Thus, the development of road maps will be engaged in:

• "National Center for Informatization" ("Big Data," "Industrial Internet," "Wireless Technologies"),
• "Innopolis University" ("Components of Robotics and Sensorics"),
• Far Eastern Federal University ("Technologies of virtual and augmented realities"),
• Sberbank of Russia (Neurotechnologies and Artificial Intelligence),
• Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University ("New Production Technologies"),
• Novosibirsk Institute of Software Systems (Distributed Register Systems),
• National Research Technological University "MISIS" ("Quantum Technologies").

The performers are expected to analyze the factors of the technological proposal (scientific, technical and technological reserve), assess the needs for the corresponding technology and determine priority sub-technologies (a subset of technologies that form an "end-to-end" digital technology).

The roadmap should form a plan of joint actions of the business community and executive authorities to develop and use "end-to-end" digital technologies to achieve technological leadership, ensure economic development and social progress of the Russian Federation, and enter Russian companies into international markets.

In addition, performers will have to identify measurable strategic goals and target effects of the development of "end-to-end" technologies. In addition, it is required to establish long-term benchmarks for the activities of support entities within the framework of the federal project "Digital Technologies," including leading research centers, universities, scientific organizations, companies, digital platforms, etc.

The work must be carried out in stage 1 - from the moment the state contract is concluded until September 30, 2019. As part of the work, the performers will have to hold a number of discussions with the involvement of experts.

The result of the projects will be text reports, presentation materials, digital interactive web services with the content of the roadmap, as well as lists of involved experts.

Competition for the development of road maps announced

March 1, the first day Rosatom of spring, announced long-awaited contests for the development of roadmaps for end-to-end digital technologies, including distributed registry technologies (). blockchain The cost of developing to blockchain the roadmap itself is small - 11.7 million rubles, however, in accordance with the roadmap state , support for the blockchain industry should be built by 2024.

Like any such strategic document developed with public funds, the roadmap is burdened with many requirements and formulations that, obliging to perform a whole range of work using certain tools (which, in fact, is correct), at the same time somewhat blur the very purpose of the work - to get a targeted image and a set of state support measures for further development. blockchain industries in Russia Read more here.

The government will allocate 21 billion rubles of subsidies for the development of blockchain, Big Data and artificial intelligence

On February 18, 2019, the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications determined measures to support the so-called end-to-end technologies - blockchain, big data, artificial intelligence, quantum computing, robotics, virtual and augmented reality technologies.

The agency published four draft government decrees with the rules for the distribution of subsidies for the development of end-to-end technologies. In 2019 alone, the state plans to allocate about 20.8 billion rubles for such developments, Vedomosti writes with reference to Sergei Nakvasin, director of Digital Technologies at ANO Digital Economy.

The Information Technology Development Fund (FRIT) will distribute 5 billion rubles between companies, the money will go to the development and implementation of domestic IT products, services and platforms in the regions. No more than 5% of subsidies will be invested in the work of the FRIT itself.

Another 1.7 billion rubles from the budget will be allocated to subsidize interest rates in the amount of the key rate of the Central Bank.

5 billion rubles will go to pilot projects of the most developed technologies for priority industries health care-,, formations industry,,,, etc agriculture transport power engineering specialists. The fund will distribute the money. Skolkovo To get them, companies must attract a minimum of 30% of extra-budgetary funding to the project and ensure that the technology will allow the companies using it to triple the revenue in the fourth year after the pilot begins.

In addition, 2.1 billion rubles are planned to be spent on grants that RVC will distribute through the technological projects fund to "leading research centers." RVC will give another 3 billion rubles, according to the passport of the federal project "Digital Technologies," to companies engaged in projects on end-to-end technologies, said Sergey Nakvasin.^[34]
