- Management and technology consultancy Detecon ends Russian activity in response to Ukraine crisis.
T‑Systems consulting arm Detecon has shut down its operation in Russia in response to the Ukraine invasion.
The unit, which has had a base in Moscow since at least the mid-2000s, no longer lists Russia as an international location on its website.
A spokesperson for Deutsche Telekom told TelcoTitans: “Deutsche Telekom and its affiliates do not have any business with Russian companies and, in practice, do not generate any revenues in Russia, except for a small volume at Detecon. We have decided last week to stop Detecon’s activities in Russia. As a result, we will not be seeking new contracts with local Russian companies”.
DT has also since the invasion indicated it would cut back activity at a large software development centre in St. Petersburg, and relocate functions and workers to sites elsewhere in Europe and India.
