“I think Yandex is something in between two different cultures. One ori...” — Arkady Volozh Quote

“I think Yandex is something in between two different cultures. One originated from the old Soviet culture of the scientific institute. It was a free atmosphere of scientists, maybe too free because nobody cared about making money. Another origin is something close to what you usually see in California startups.”

“Yandex originated from a company called Arkadia, which created two search programs under the DOS operating system in 1990.”

“We never set up Yandex to imitate what others were doing. We've been in the business longer than other search engines and have created many original products.”

“I really enjoyed coaching Chelsea. It was a different atmosphere with less money and a more familiar environment.”

“I also had a chance to play in Brazil for Vasco against Flamengo, the local rivals in Rio. So it is the sort of game the players like to play in, and I like the atmosphere, the build-up, and all the preparations throughout the week. You want to be involved in these kind of games.”

“I grew up in a military family, so I liked being in an atmosphere where there was almost that feeling.”
