Russian Railways subsidiary RZD Technologies has partnered with Robin, a Moscow-based “leader in robotic intelligence,” to create the first Russian marketplace for robotic software solutions.
Scheduled for launch in July this year, the platform is part of a program called ‘Cloud Factory of Software Robots,’ which received a 80 million-ruble grant from the Skolkovo Foundation (around $1.05 million at the current exchange rate).
The marketplace aims to offer market players an alternative to creating in-house robotization centers. Some 20 companies are expected to offer ready-made solutions, or provide support to create specific products.
