Among the new owners are Oleg Yanovsky, owner of the Altika transport company, and Igor Kaloshin, co-founder of the Syndicat venture capital club, a BaseTracK representative told RB.RU.
Since July, BaseTracK's Russian representative office has been operating under the Energotrak brand. Yanovsky will focus on generating sales, Kaloshin on attracting new investment.
