Russia may well be the next big market for Chinese Internet firms, as the European country looks to further expand its cyberspace capabilities, according to top industry officials.
Jack Ma, executive chairman of China's e-commerce giant Alibaba Group Holding Ltd, said on Wednesday that Russia has the right credentials to duplicate China's success in e-commerce.
"We are hopeful of building an e-commerce infrastructure, including e-commerce platforms, Internet finance and smart logistics, in Russia," he said. Ma's comments came after a meeting with Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev at the ongoing Second World Internet Conference.
