On November 10, 2021, at the invitation of Saint-Petersburg State University of Economics, AGR Software participated as an expert at the session of the Interparliamentary Assembly of Member Nations of the Commonwealth of Independent States (IPA CIS).

Among other issues, the members of the Expert Advisory Board on Economy discussed Model Law on the Digital Transformation of the Service Industry of the CIS Member Nations.

AGR Software was represented by its CEO, Rostislav Bilik, Candidate of Technical Sciences. During the discussion, Rostislav Bilik emphasized the importance and relevance of the Law and, at the same time, noted it was crucial to take into account the interests of digital service providers. Indeed, the needs of both digital consumers and business that offers digital content and services have to be well-balanced, as together they are a key factor for enhancing the principles of national security, which is paid much attention to in the Model Law.

It is our sincere belief, that partaking in such meetings is fundamental to the social role of any company, as it provides a unique opportunity to contribute to the improvement of quality of life in the CIS countries.
