Gazprom Neft Accelerator INDUSTRIX Develops Cooperation with Yandex Cloud and Workshop to Support Startups
The Gazprom Neft accelerator INDUSTRIX has entered into cooperation agreements with Yandex Cloud and Yandex Practicum. The partnership will expand access for technology startups to innovative online services and help attract the IT community to the development of oil and gas projects.
Participants in the INDUSTRIX acceleration program will be able to take advantage of online education tools and advanced digital products to develop and support their business. Oil and gas startups will have the opportunity to supplement their teams with talent from the Yandex Workshop talent pool, as well as access to more than 60 cloud products, including the YandexGPT API, data storage, analysis and visualization services, and many others.
Cooperation with INDUSTRIX opens up wide opportunities for Yandex Workshop graduates to build a career, acquire new experience and competencies in the industrial sector. Yandex specialists will also participate in the competition and expert commissions of the Industrix accelerator in areas such as digitalization and automation of production, preparation and transportation of hydrocarbons, well construction and others.
“INDUSTRIX is moving from the classic model of acceleration programs with periodic recruitment of participants to working as a platform that is open to new projects on an ongoing basis. Our goal is to help startups go from idea to finished product in the shortest possible way. Partnership with Yandex services will make it easier for developers to solve operational problems and will contribute to the development of innovative solutions for the oil and gas industry,” says Alexey Vashkevich, Deputy Head of the Department for Technological Development of Exploration and Production at Gazprom Neft.
