Experts interviewed by the publication believe that the transfer of most electronics manufacturing enterprises under the conditions of sanctions under the control of one company can help them solve problems with broken production chains, speed up production amid a shortage of components, as well as consolidate orders and receive the necessary investments for development.

Nikolai Komlev, director of the Association of Computer and Information Technology Enterprises and chairman of the Council of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry for the Development of the Digital Economy, warned that in addition to the advantages, the option of consolidating orders will also bear the risks of secondary sanctions.^[1]
