Imagine a smart assistant helps you choose and order products. It knows perfectly well what you like best, knows how to pick up goods to stay within your monthly budget, and automatically tops up the stock of those products that you are running out. If you are going on a trip, it will hail a self-driving taxi for you, cancel the delivery of perishable goods for the duration of your trip, and instead can order everything you will need for the trip ? and all these will be immediately delivered by drones. You can rely on the assistant when you buy insurance and banking products, pay your bills and subscriptions, plan up activities and entertainment, as it is well aware of your interests, preferences and habits, and therefore it can anticipate your desires and analyze tons of offers and prices to come up with the most rational choice.
Such a visionary picture, which until recently looked like a science fiction abstract, is hardly capable of impressing anyone today. Future technologies are becoming a reality and are already beginning to conquer the mass market. They save us money and time, take care of our health and entertain us ? in other words, they become indispensable for modern people, completely changing the rules of the game in the consumer market.
It took telephony almost a century to spread throughout the whole world. It took digital technology only a few years to do the same. "Uberization" revolutionized the passenger transportation market in just three years. The car sharing market in Moscow alone has grown more than forty times in recent years: in 2018, the fleet was 15,000 cars, whereas in 2015 there were only 350 cars available. As for the food technology industry, it has actually doubled over the past three years?. The number of contactless payments has increased? from 2% to 42% over two years. The cloud service market may exceed the landmark of 80 billion rubles in 2019, the array of data stored in the clouds will increase? from 33 to 175 zettabytes* by 2025. Notably, half of this amount (90 zettabytes) will be generated by devices connected to the Internet of Things (IoT).
*A zettabyte is one trillion gigabytes

The affordability of mobile technologies ? the relatively low cost of smartphones, mobile communications and the Internet access ? largely contributed to the proliferation of digital services in Russia. This is still a driving factor for the technological development. The explosive growth of digital services, heightened consumer expectations and fierce market competition make businesses consider a change in strategic priorities. After all, things that looked like science fiction yesterday have become a reality today.

As to the Russian consumers, today they are balancing between the two extremes. On the one side of the scale are poverty at 12.9% of the population, decline in real incomes for the fifth consecutive year and the per capita income of 31,500 rubles.
