Vedomosti: The Web 2.0 bubble is growing on the Internet
After several years of disappointment (associated with the famous “crash of dot-coms”), investor interest in the Internet has revived, says Ashmanov and Partners managing partner Igor Ashmanov.
Now, according to him, we are seeing an inflation of a new “Web 2.0 bubble”. True, this time all the large-scale Runet projects are profitable, and the online advertising market is breaking records.
There is a lot of oil money in the country, and the lack of growth in other industries makes investors buy companies on the market that is far from saturation, Igor Ashmanov is quoted as saying by Vedomosti . An example of this is the purchase by structures of the metallurgical oligarch Vladimir Potanin of a share in the largest Internet holding Rambler , which the experts estimated at $ 260 million. Another intriguing deal of the outgoing year is the transfer of service rights of the Live Journal to businessman Alexander Mamut. In total, according to Finam, this year the owner was replaced by more than 500 RuNet resources with a total value of $ 1.5 billion.
