How SILA Union Technologies Shape the Future of Business Analytics — Key Takeaways from the Session at the Neva Forum
In the era of digitalization, where the pace of change outstrips readiness for it, a company’s ability to systematically manage transformation becomes critically important. Today, success is not determined by who has the most data, but by who can interpret, model, and transform data into a controlled architecture of the future. These are precisely the demands that the SILA Union platform meets, and this was the focus of discussion at the IX International Neva Forum “Russia in a Multipolar World: Politics, Economy, Education”—one of the main venues where the agenda for digital development is shaped.
SILA Union—a comprehensive, modern platform for business process management and digital transformation—became the centerpiece of the session “Integration of Financial and Business Analytics in the Data Economy,” organized by RANEPA North-West Institute of Management as part of the Forum. Anna Linkevich, Head of Non-Profit Partnerships at SILA Union, spoke about what the business analyst of the future should be like and what technologies help them be effective today.
Using practical cases, Anna demonstrated how the SILA Union platform enables companies—from the public sector to private business—to build digital twins of organizations, design corporate architecture, manage risks and KPIs, and create a unified model of IT and business interaction. Special attention was given to the banking sector, where demands for reliability, process transparency, and forecasting accuracy are especially high. For financial institutions, the SILA Union platform becomes a tool for strategic management that aligns with regulatory standards and market maturity levels.
Participants of the session also actively discussed the role of solutions like SILA Union in the modern training of business analysts. In today’s environment, where technologies are rapidly evolving and scaling, it is especially important to have the ability to think systematically, model processes, shape company strategy, and manage transformation. These are precisely the skills developed through working with SILA Union—a platform behind dozens of successful digital transformations, including in banking, quality management, and financial analytics.
Key discussion topics at the Forum also included: the goals and objectives of digital transformation in analytics, the techniques used, and existing information ecosystems. Forum participants—including representatives of the Ministry of Finance of Russia, VTB Bank, Gazprom Center of Process Solutions, Moscow Exchange, IT companies, and leading universities—shared case studies and examples of solving complex analytical tasks, discussed the use of exchange tools and services, reviewed domestic open economic and financial data sets, and explored the integration of universities, vendors, and businesses in education.
The conclusions of the session confirmed the main trend: the future lies in the integration of analytics and design, in platforms that allow a company to be “seen” as a system and effectively managed. SILA Union is a leader among such tools, helping businesses and government entities keep pace with the challenges of the digital age every day. The result is reduced costs, increased transparency, and accelerated change—exactly what modern analytical solutions are expected to deliver today.
