Severstal will look for new technologies among the participants in the TechUp-2019 rating
Severstal, one of the world's largest vertically integrated mining and steel companies, has become one of the partners in the TechUspekh 2019 rating. Its participants - Russian technology companies with a high leadership potential - will have the opportunity to create joint projects with Severstal, as well as pilot their developments at its industrial sites.
In connection with the transition of Severstal to the model of "open innovation", a need arose for attracting new technological solutions in the market. The company is actively working with startups, and in 2019 launched its own internal and external accelerator SteelTech. The Severstal Vetures corporate fund invests in projects in the field of advaced materials and innovative metallurgy technologies.
Among the participants in the TechUspech rating, Severstal also plans to search for promising technologies and new product solutions.

Severstal's specialists are ready to provide the participants with their industrial expertise, as well as to tell about the formats of further partnership and the possibility of testing their developments on the assets of the enterprise.
“Severstal's goal is to become the leader of the metallurgy of the future, which means a more innovative and technological company. We are open to new ideas and carefully study the market to see all possible prospects. Building cooperation with external partners is necessary for us to maintain a high level of innovation and a constant flow of fresh ideas. In the TechUspekh-2019 rating, we see several interesting directions and expect fruitful cooperation with technological leaders, which, without a doubt, are its participants, ”commented Dmitry Gorbachev, Director of Business Development at Severstal.
The TechUspekh rating forms a model and sets standards for the selection of promising technology companies with a high potential for leadership in the Russian and global markets. It is no coincidence that the leading domestic and foreign corporations today consider TechUspekh as an effective tool for increasing their competitiveness. The development of partnerships between rating participants and industrial holdings is an important task. As a result of such cooperation, synergy arises, which opens up additional growth opportunities for both large business and medium-sized high-tech companies, "said Mikhail Antonov, Deputy General Director - Director for Development of RVC Innovation Infrastructure.
The TechUspekh rating is formed by RVC since 2012 and is focused on finding, monitoring and promoting fast-growing technology companies with high leadership potential both in the Russian and global markets.
