"Today we are carrying out preparatory work to replace the foreign mail server with a domestic solution. Tus, it is important to establish close cooperation with the leaders of the IT industry, one of which is VK,” Rustam Minnikhanov noted during the meeting.
Strengthening technological sovereignty with Rosatom
Ayrat Khayrullin also met with Director of Information and Digital Technologies of the Rosatom State Corporation Evgeny Abakumov.
Following the meeting, the parties agreed on a partnership between Rosatom and the IT Park of Tatarstan to promote Russian digital technologies at the enterprises of the republic. The creation of an IT testing ground for rapid testing and implementation of digital solutions, especially in the areas of industrial robotics, information security and neural network systems, was also discussed.
“An important aspect of our cooperation is the joint promotion of Russian IT solutions to international markets, including through the Corporate Innovation Hub in Qatar. I believe that our proposals should work abroad as well,” Khayrulin said during the meeting.
Successful joint projects are already being implemented in Tatarstan: the Innopolis data center was launched in 2024, and a nuclear power plant for hydrogen production is planned to be built in the Mendeleyevsky region of the republic.
Digitalization of the agro-industrial complex with PhosAgro
Tatarstan Ministry of Digitalization also met with the management of PhosAgro, where they discussed issues of digital transformation of the agro-industrial sector and potential areas of cooperation with residents of the Tatarstan IT Park.

Digitalization of the agro-industrial complex is a strategic area in which Tatarstan IT companies can offer effective world-class solutions.
