“This whole set of measures (support for the IT industry – ed.) has led to the fact that the number of accredited companies, you see, has grown seven times, that is, 28 thousand companies in 2022. This suggests that, of course, many , apparently, came out of the shadows, but many were created, because we see that the number of IT specialists has increased – this is 1,700,000,” the Deputy Prime Minister said.

Despite this, Chernyshenko noted that there is still a shortage of IT specialists in Russia: “we still have about a million more shortages in these areas.”

In mid-October, the Ministry of Digital Development of the Russian Federation launched a service at Gosuslugakh to check whether an IT company has state accreditation. It was noted that the new service will help employees of IT companies to understand whether they are eligible for benefits: a deferment from mobilization or an IT mortgage. The service can be used by both individuals and legal entities.
