The bank’s digital technologies will help the region boost safety and security on public transport and at sporting, manufacturing, and social infrastructure facilities

Sber, in the person of Stanislav Kuznetsov, deputy chairman of Sberbank's Executive Board, and the Oryol Region Government, in the person of Governor Andrey Klychkov, signed a cooperation agreement at Sber's exhibition space at RUSSIA EXPO, an international exhibition and forum.

The agreement is aimed at improving safety at transportation facilities, sports facilities, industrial and commercial enterprises, and other social infrastructure facilities through innovative digital technologies, products, and platform solutions.

Stanislav Kuznetsov, deputy chairman of the Executive Board, Sberbank:

Public safety issues in Russia today receive special attention, as the lives and health of people in every region of the country directly depend on them. Sber develops and constantly improves the latest technologies and solutions, including those based on artificial intelligence, which allow us to raise the level of citizen safety to a new level. We work closely with the constituent entities of the Russian Federation on the implementation of such solutions, and we are pleased that such an agreement has been reached with the Government of the Oryol Region. Together, we will scale up the best technologies in the field of transportation security, in schools and universities, medical centers, hospitals, and other facilities. We will do all this for the benefit, comfort, and peace of mind of the region’s residents.

Andrey Klychkov, Governor, Oryol Region:

The development of the transportation industry is one of the priority tasks of the Oryol Region Government. We are actively implementing projects to upgrade the rolling stock. We are one of the first regions in the Central Federal District to implement an automated fare payment system in urban motor transport and electric transport. The Oryol Region has developed a system of online monitoring of passenger transportation through the GLONASS system. We continue to develop an intelligent transport system, digitalizing traffic and road management processes within the framework of the national project «Safe Quality Roads». Undoubtedly, the future lies in the introduction of innovation-driven technologies for the benefit of the entire transportation system. Together with our reliable partner Sber, we will do everything we can to achieve the set tasks.
