 | The VimpelCom development strategy in terms of IT competencies is aimed at using products and solutions of its own design. VK-IT has a full range of competencies for this and in 2022 was concentrated on the formation of a software development and support center for the widest possible range of beeline tasks. Expanding the list of products under development, the range of work performed and the corresponding increase in the number of teams and specialists became the main drivers of VK-IT revenue growth last year, "Sergey Khorkov, general director of VK-IT, told TAdviser. |  |
