NIC CT is engaged in the development of software, solutions in the field of artificial intelligence and PAC. In turn, the PPP Institute specializes in solving "problems in the field of integrated regional development through public-private partnership mechanisms." The institute said that Elbrus LLC was created "to develop and promote domestic high-performance and secure software and hardware systems based on Elbrus microprocessors and special software from the NRC CT, which maximally implements the technological capabilities inherent in their architecture."

It is planned to produce PAC in a new "dual-use cluster," which is being formed in Moscow and the Moscow region. The main purpose of the systems is import substitution of PAC "with real-time operation in the industrial automation market."

However, industry participants express doubts about the project. The fact is that ICST partners do not have their own production facilities, and "practically nothing is known" about their developments on the market. We can talk about "consolidation of lobbying efforts for import substitution in KII."^[1]
