FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
March 7, 2022 – Ottawa, Canada: WiseWithData, leaders in legacy SAS migrations, announces a ban on delivering services to Russian or Belarusian based companies.
With the dangerous and unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, Russia has threatened not just Ukrainian people, but the peace and prosperity of the entire earth. This invasion must stop and peace must be restored.
WiseWithData is a global company providing services all around the world. Many Russian and Belarusian based companies make use of legacy SAS software, including their largest banks, Alfa-Bank, Sberbank and VTBR. We know that without modernization of their SAS based analytics, organizations are far less competitive than their peers who leverage modern analytics. We hope that by denying these organizations the option to modernize their legacy analytics footprint, we can help bring additional pressure to stop this horrific acts of violence and terror. .
WiseWithData pledges to not actively engage in any organization headquartered in Russia or Belarus, until Russia withdraws from the entirety of Ukraine, including the Crimean peninsula.
