Beshtau Technologies, the recently opened subsidiary of Beshtau Group and RostIntech, in addition to developing machine tools, equipment, and technologies for radio electronics and microelectronics, will focus on the technological development of Russia in new areas and future technologies.
This was announced by Oleg Osipov, CEO of Beshtau Group, 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, Beshtau Group also has other ambitious plans.
[...] We recently registered the company Beshtau Technologies. It will specialize in registering patents for technologies that did not exist not only in Russia, but also in the West. As well as attracting innovative enterprises to the Beshtau Technopark and establishing internal cooperation chains.
The Beshtau Technopark is part of a cluster of companies in southern Russia, which is currently located in three regions. Representatives from the LPR and DPR will soon join it. The technopark can include companies that participate in the Beshtau production cycle, but are not fully integrated into the operational production chains and cannot enter the core of the cluster. The technopark can also include 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 effective use of machine tools 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 stand 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 phases, and there is already a first phase: 16,300 square meters, which were 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 publicly about the main resident of the technopark 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.
