Fintech and e-commerce is growing ten-times faster than the rest of the Russian economy as the leading companies leapfrog over several stages of development.

We post the whole session here (one hour long) as a rare chance to hear from the horse’s mouth what these ground breaking companies are doing and how they see the sector developing in the coming years.
