The startup Briskly, which develops technologies for commerce without personnel, has appointed a new general director: Andrei Oreshko became general director on February 8, as follows from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. Previously, the company was headed by its founder Gleb Kharitonov.
The company confirmed the appointment and added that Gleb Kharitonov became a member of the startup’s board of directors.
The Briskly representative clarified that Andrey Oreshko is a graduate of IGEA and the London Business School, for 25 years he held management positions at PJSC Sberbank of Russia, was chairman of the board of directors of ATB and the Moscow Industrial Bank and a member of the board of administration of PJSC National Bank TRUST.
Briskly launched in 2018 and made two rounds of investments the following year for a total of $370,000. In 2020, the project raised another $2 million to fund its first project in Europe.
At the end of 2023, Briskly decided to abandon its parent structure in Cyprus and move completely to Russia. Experts believe that this step indicates Briskly’s orientation towards the domestic market and the CIS countries. The company is likely to raise funds in Russia and look for investors in “friendly” countries.
