After the start of the military invasion of Ukraine, international companies have been publishing statements about their stance regarding their operations on the Russian market. We, a team of researchers, analysts of KSE Institute and volunteers, set our hands on creating this website to provide complete and objective information on the decisions of companies to leave the Russian market or continue operations on it. This website allows you to get up-to-date info and express your opinion via social media to urge companies to leave the Russian market and stop financing the war in Ukraine.
The LeaveRussia project and this website were conceived and initiated in March 2022 by a team of Ukrainian IT volunteers. In June 2022, the LeaveRussia team joined efforts with the team of KSE Institute working on the SelfSanctions project, which analyzes the activities of international companies relating to the Russian market. As a result, the most complete company database has been created, which is represented on this website.
To streamline joined efforts and develop the project further, the team of volunteers has transferred all rights for the project and the LeaveRussia website to KSE Institute. Now KSE researchers and analysts, and the volunteers work on this project together.
