Interests of Russian Entrepreneurial Structure Participating in Automotive Strategic Alliances

The study has analyzed the representatives of the Russian automotive manufacturing that are a part of global value chains. They are JSC “AvtoVAZ” and JSC “Sollers”. It has been noted that enterprises taking part in the global value chain have chosen different forms of integration. The main general-theoretical methods of analysis, synthesis and comparison were used. As a result, it has been concluded that an important role is assigned to the compliance of “Strategies of scientific and technological development of the Russian Federation” companies’ interests in matters of import substitution, inclusion in global value chains and increasing the level of localization. At the same time, there are also differences regarding the forms of cooperation, goals, and involvement. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of this cooperation remains undeniable and is confirmed by the entry of Russian enterprises into new links in the value chain and increasing the level of production localization.
