“Digital solutions of the bank and our ecosystem companies help to improve the quality of life in regions. We have successfully worked with the government of Yaroslavl Region for a few years on several digital projects, such as cashless transport, cashless meal payment at schools, banking agents in villages that provide access to banking services even where Sberbank has no branches or ATMs, Quantorium children’s technopark network and campus projects. We’ve agreed on a very rich technological agenda in 2020 and signed a framework agreement that can help us cooperate even more fruitfully down the road. Shortly, we plan to carry out new campus projects across educational and medical institutions and centralize the back-office’s functions that will allow for public institutions’ expenses to be cut.”
