Beshtau Technologies, a recently opened "daughter" of GC Beshtau and RostIntekh, in addition to developing machines, equipment, and technologies for radio electronics and microelectronics, will be engaged in the technological development of Russia in new directions and technologies of the future.
This was announced by Oleg Osipov, General Director of GC Beshtau, in an interview with the business media Expert Yug. According to him, in addition to launching a plant for the production of domestic boards for electronics in Rostov-on-Don this year, the first stage of which should be operational by the end of March, GC Beshtau also has other ambitious plans.
[...] We recently registered the company Beshtau Technologies. It will specialize in registering patents for technologies that have not existed not only in Russia, but also in the West. As well as attracting innovative enterprises to the Beshtau Technopark and establishing internal cooperation chains.
Beshtau Technopark is part of a cluster of group of companies in the south of Russia, which is currently located in three regions. Representative offices from the LPR and DPR will soon join it. The technopark may include companies that participate in the Beshtau production cycle, but are not fully integrated into the operational production chains and cannot get into the core of the cluster. Also, the technopark may include those manufacturers that are not directly related to Beshtau.
If an enterprise comes that is not integrated into our operational chains, but at the same time we can provide it with production services, development services, but we are not ready to support this product, we invite it to the technopark.
In the technopark, companies will receive not only premises, but also the effective use of machines and equipment. It will not make sense for them to buy their own SMT lines (equipment for the production of printed circuit boards, - editor's note), it will be cheaper to place these orders with Beshtau. If he buys a line for himself and uses it five days a month, the equipment will be idle the rest of the time, and people will receive salaries. This is an inefficient use of both human resources and production.
On the other hand, those enterprises that enter our technopark may provide services to the enterprises of our cluster. These are two-way benefits. Plus, perhaps, those enterprises that enter will take advantage of our administration experience, our connections, cooperation chains, and our purchasing experience. Consolidated purchases are also more profitable.
The Beshtau Technopark has two stages, and there is already the first stage: 16,300 square meters, which are allocated under an agreement with the governor. All these places are already occupied, "they couldn't even satisfy all the applications."
One of the residents of this technopark will be Beshtau directly. The second point: we already have a list of companies that are ready to join us literally tomorrow. And I can't talk about the main resident of the technopark publicly yet. But this is information that will become known after a while.
In addition, as previously stated, in 2025 in Rostov-on-Don, Beshtau will launch the first plant in Russia where laptops will be manufactured, consisting of components of its own Russian production. Work is already underway at the site where the plant will be located.
