The annual business agenda begins routinely with the TechUspech rating. The main criteria to assess the level of success and technology performance of companies are the business size, innovation level and new products, the intellectual property that a company holds, and the demand rate for the products it sells in export markets, and more.

NANOLEK has stepped up in two categories compared to the 2019 rating results: the Main Rating (“Large Companies”), going up from 12th to 6th place, and the “Export Potential” category, going up from 24th to 18th place.

The annual TechUspech rating is founded by joint efforts of Russian Venture Company (RVC) and the Association of Innovative Regions of Russia (AIRR). It is meant to evaluate the innovative business potential of fast-growing high-tech companies with a high leadership potential on either the Russian or the global market.

The TechUspech rating serves to spot the high-tech companies delivering the best results. These are also required to perform in a transparent way in daily operations, to apply best practices targeted at the further growth of the market, and to show that they are very innovation-driven. Companies join the rating to foster the growth of the Russian entrepreneurial community, boost performance and add to the investment attractiveness of the national market.

Mikhail Nekrasov, General Director of NANOLEK: “The high-profile competitions like this collect and analyze the achievements of Russian companies. So, it is a matter of importance and urgency to take part in them. This way we can witness the growth and advance, compare with the players of our industry and keep an eye on the market trends. We enjoy being at the top of the ratings, yet these are just numbers. Behind them stands our colleagues’ selfless commitment, and we should bear this in mind. Receiving the news of the win amid the unfolding pandemic restrictions is doubly gratifying; we were able to ensure that the medicines to cure the new coronavirus infection were produced and delivered on time, and we continued to reinforce our position in the Russian and international pharmaceutical market. We thank the Expert Council for the high score it has given to NANOLEK’s activities. It is an honorable thing to take the top line in the TechUspech rating. We are committed to reinforcing the role of the national pharmaceutical industry even further.”
