Vasiliy Shpak, Deputy Minister Ministry of Industry and Trade, proposed to begin voluntary experiments on labelling of new trade groups this year, such as canned products, fish products, soda, juice, alcohol, baby goods, electronics and pet food.

The government has placed on hold mandatory labeling requirements until 2023 earlier. Such suspension applied to trade groups that were not under obligatory requirements before March 1, 2021.

Last week Kertios Consulting was invited to participate in Oracle’s two-day event in Madrid – the Western Europe Mid-Market Partner Sales Development Forum.

This forum was an excellent opportunity for the Kertios team to connect with the local Oracle partner management leaders, Oracle Mid-Market representatives, and other Oracle Partners operating in Western Europe. Between exchanging ideas and exploring market opportunities, we got the chance to race on a virtual Formula1 simulator race track.

Kertios is eager to continue to take on new projects in the western European market and is looking forward to expanding the scope to include new markets, such as Spain.
Big thanks to the Oracle Mid-Market team for organizing such a fun event that fosters collaboration and promotes development.

On 22 April our company Kertios Consulting participated in a vacancy fair held at the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation. This event takes place twice a year, in April and October, and gives students and graduates the opportunity to find an internship or a future job.

During the fair, we were able to talk to more than 60 students from different faculties, about 20 of whom have already sent us their CVs. Our experts talked about career opportunities at Kertios, answered questions from the students, and also had time to talk to representatives from the Business Informatics Department about possibilities for further cooperation.

Our team is waiting for new young specialists who are interested in developing their skills in IT consultancy!
