How professionals work. Ilya Sachkov, founder and director of Group IB

The heading "How Professionals Work" continues to acquaint the readers of "Megamind" with the working habits of various specialists in the IT market.

We don't write to our editorial office so often, so we were rather surprised to receive the following message:

Dear editors! Under the heading "How Professionals Work," I would very much like to see Group-IB CEO Ilya Sachkov, whom Forbes recently placed on the list of the most successful young businessmen. Thank!

And indeed - Ilya, with whom we, not so long ago , already talked on various topics, was chosen by Forbes as one of the most successful entrepreneurs under the age of 30 years.
