Interview of foreign companies:
conditions for Business
Broad market – that is the main reason of our appearance in the Russian Federation.
In St. Petersburg we organized our production due to favorable geographical
position and progressive minded management of the city at the beginning –
middle of nineties. We also considered other options.
• №1: “In general- normal, we don’t see particular difficulties for our business”.
• №2: Company No 2: “Business climate in St. Petersburg becomes better, demand
•
•
•
•
•
is growing. The Company is planning to invest into new production facilities,
including construction of new shops from the very beginning”.
№ 3: “Before we got serious problems, now situation is changed in better
direction”.
№ 4: “Too many inspections of different bodies with rent extraction”. “Very slow
and greedy bureaucracy”
№ 5: “High administrative barriers, a lot of inspections, non – coordination's in its
requirements (sanitary body, militia, guarding, technical supervision”.
“Juridical nihilism, low production , professional culture”.
№3.”There are barriers but situation is changing to the better.
One can feel the grows of competence of bureaucrats”.
“No real signs of the state protectionism”
10
Interview of foreign companies:
Access to information and Labor Force
• Company№ 1: «in some cases we receive information through personal contacts,
private links etc. However we cant say that there is no access to the official
information. Some committees organize seminars, exhibitions about investment
policy , also Internet-portal».
• № 3: «Information is available. Luck of explanatory materials from the control
bodies, monopolies about the procedures and rules of agreements with examples
of solving the problems.
• № 4: «Information about administration activity is rather fragmenting. It would be
a great problem with it if it would be no contacts inside administration».
•
“There is a problem with blue collar workers, low skills workers. We attract
workers from CIS countries through recruiting firms. There is no luck of white-collar
workers”.
• “Luck of skilled labor force, low labor motivation and low production culture,
exaggerated expectations of salaries “.
• “It is very serious for us. We start to feel of deficit of labor force even in 90th. Now
we can say the deficit is growing 5-10% in a year. We have training centre in SPb,
we send our staff abroad, cooperate with some Russian high educational institutes,
manage internships for students.”

Attitudes to the West
• Respondents believe that West European countries are partners for Russia,
•
•
•
•
and some view them as a model for our country
Entery to EU : “They will not accept us;” “Russia’s entry into the EC would
put this organization out of balance;” “Russia is too large for the EC to
swallow.” , “Russia does not need the EC with all its bureaucracy.”
Belong to Europe ?: “I am living in a different environment with different
values.” “Both the living conditions and the values are different. We, living
in the Northwest, are closer to them [than the rest of the Russians
a model for Russia: Seven respondents voted for the U.S.A, two
respondents selected Germany and two Scandinavian countries, one
respondent voted for the Czech Republic
Entry to the WTO: Nine respondents welcome it, with seven of them noting
positive prospects for their own businesses. But bio-chemical company :
“This is very unfortunate. The prices on analog drugs will go down, while
their drugs are of a better quality than ours.” The transport company :
“Things will go worse, because our trucks are worse. “This is just another
scheme of our bureaucrats. The issue is deeply political and has nothing to
do with our interests.”
One should take into account that an adherence to market liberalism shown by
our respondents may be to a significant degree influenced by a megalopolis
where the modernization pace is at its highest. On the one hand,
entrepreneurs of a large city located on the EC border demonstrate
adherence to a market ideology, pragmatism and sober analyses of the
situation without nostalgic feelings about the past. On the other hand, they
are convinced that Russia should go its own, special way.

From interviews
• Russian companies are significantly behind in digital and communication
technologies; production of equipment for communications; biotechnologies;
microelectronics, production of alternative energy sources.
• There are some opportunities in space and laser engineering and here
Russian companies have leading positions in number of cases. There are
certain opportunities in nanotechnologies development.
• There are two possible alternatives of successful strategy – to produce
cheaper and offer less qualitative analogues of leading foreign companies or
to occupy market segments, which are not interesting to leading foreign
companies.
• Managers of innovative companies stressed that their business is rather
dependable on institutional environment – especially on guarantees of
ownership and intellectual rights, quality of judicial system. Industrial parks
and business incubators are the business for bureaucracy.
25
Challenges for innovative economy
Low demand for innovations and low level of
innovative activity of companies
Scientific and research potentials are underused
Innovative circle is broken
Lack of links with international innovations
Policy oriented to the supply side, not to
demand !

Thank you !
