2011 RUSNANO promises an IPO and involvement of the EBRD as shareholders. To put it mildly, the state did not set such a task for Chubais; he himself decided that it was necessary. And since EBRD, investments in the defense industry are not encouraged at all. Here there must be Western-approved projects in the field of ecology and renewable energy, medicine, IT, “smart cities” and other dregs that can be talked about for a long time and endlessly without showing results. By the way, there is not a single confirmation that the EBRD had the intention of becoming a shareholder of RUSNANO, meanwhile, about 300 million rubles were spent on Due diligence alone “for the entry of the EBRD”. These funds were paid to various consultants and were mostly cashed out.
2014 Crimea and subsequent sanctions were able to gracefully close the issue with the IPO of RUSNANO and the entry of EBRD into the shareholders. Well, it’s like Putin himself is to blame for the fact that our privatization plans were ruined. Moreover, Chubais now has a new excuse: “We will not invest in the military so as not to fall under sanctions.” V.V. At personal meetings, Putin is informed about the enormous potential, the “window to Europe,” etc. We evaluate the result today…
The project to produce dual-use diodes at the Optogan plant in St. Petersburg received an unofficial ban from Chubais himself; RUSNANO deliberately underfunded projects on superwires (Nanoelectro), germanium production (Germanium and Applications), production of machine tools and special tools (Virial, NIR, NEVZ Ceramics, ESTO Vacuum), and the development of component bases for electronics (“Mikron”, “Elvis Neo Tech”, “IR LEDs”), etc.
More than 2 billion rubles were invested in the development of the chip (which also has military applications) at JSC Elvis Neo Tech. Result: there is no chip, the money was shamelessly stolen, the project leaders Oleg Kiselev (Gedalia Vakser) and Dmitry Pimkin live abroad, and there is no criminal case thanks to the efforts of Asnis and Partners and SB RUSNANO.
The system of decision-making, selection, approval and management of projects, motivation and rewards in the State Corporation was built in such a way that dual-use and import substitution projects had no chance of survival.
