The event will focus on the analysis of the current situation on the software market and the business challenges that IT companies face today, said a pres release.

The first independent study of the Russian software market prepared by ISDEF will be presented in the conference. The document will examine the characteristics of the current state of the Russian retail software market, said the release.

“The necessity of such a research became obvious a long time ago and the digest became the first attempt to create a single database of the software market, as the previous studies were sporadic,” said Alexander Lyskovsky, chairman of the ISDEF board.

He said ISDEF plans to publish the digest annually by the fall ISDEF conferences, which would allow all interested parties to obtain up-to-date information about the situation in the software industry.

Russian Federation Telecoms and Mass Communications minister's deputy Dmitry Severov is expected to deliver his speech at the opening of the conference.

It is estimated that about 500 participants will attend ISDEF-2008.

While ISDEF members can attend for free, entry fee for outsiders is fixed at $200, the organizers said.
