Key Insights from the Visit:
Before the trip, the primary goal was technological exchange. However, on-site observations led to critical new findings:

The company shifted its focus toward direct market entry and introduced a 3-pronged strategy:
- Exporting hardware from Iran to Russia
- Establishing joint manufacturing workshops in Russia
- Deploying localized software service servers within Russia
Challenges and Risks Identified:
