Sergey Bazhenov Biography

The list is prepared on the basis of information from open sources of Bazhenov Sergey Biography today the name "Cleverns" is closely related to the automation of the business. But a couple of decades ago, to anyone unknown Sergey Bazhenov, who became one of the founders and driving force of the company, he had to perform the duties of an ordinary manager in his own organization: to accept calls, pay bills, write technical specifications, meet with clients, hire and train staff.

Would the boy from the Krasnodar hinterland be able to create his own company and youth, he is born in the long year not in the family of a Soviet pilot? But life decided that Sergei Vitalievich should spend her childhood in a small town of railway workers - Eneme. Then there was a move and admission to the Adler school, built in the pre -war years. Despite the efforts of teachers and participation in the all kinds of regional and all -Russian Olympiads, which were not an amount, textbooks did not cause much interest in Sergey.

He raved with computers. By his fifteenth birthday, the future general director of the world -famous company "Cleverns" has already managed to read the first book of programming, the program on a notebook sheet and start to save up the dream, working as an artist in a garage cooperative. It was the craving for programming that prompted the purchase of ZX Spectrum.

Which almost immediately Sergey with a friend was soldered and improved. The only disadvantage of the new design was that all the data disappeared after rebooting or disconnecting. And each time I had to write programs and games again. Real life: is it possible to reduce the costs of logistics half? Bauman without exams. Oleg Anatolyevich said so: “If so smart, let him do it!

However, the confidence that you can go only on one brilliant brain, quickly dispelled: it turned out that the seminars need to be attended regularly, and it was better to take homework and tests on time. Computer passion was so great that studying for 3 years has retreated to the background - he wrote a lot of programs for various companies. At the same time, the dean has constantly called "to the carpet" - to remind you of the retake and scare the deduction.

Yes, and health problems did not contribute to an increase in interest in lectures and colloquiums. In the third year, he spent a whole month in a hospital bed. This made Sergei think that the time came to set more clear goals in life and achieve them, no matter how uncomfortable. No sooner said than done! He did not reach the red diploma - too many tests and exams had to be returned in the last year, but N.

Bauman was still out of the leaders among students of MGTU. The business company "Cleverns" began in Baumanke: with the three best programmers of the course, general desks, custom -written programs, and joint projects. And the phrase of the classmate “My boss wants to talk to you, there is an order” became a guide to the world of automation: Sergei Bazhenov was invited to write software for data collection terminals.

Since European software could not always be launched in Russia, the differences in business processes, equipment, logistics, and accounting systems used were too large. While still a student, in one of the projects, Sergei implemented the functionality, which is now in all the products of the "Clever": the ability to issue orders for assembly of goods in electronic form and monitor the KPI employees with the help of TSD.

Two years later, an understanding came that such work was exhausting, and it is time to create a fundamentally new product for the Russian market. The representative of the first client - Agama Food - immediately warned: "We will buy a program, if everything is as we need." After that, Sergey Vitalievich had to forget about programming. All issues related to the organization of the company's activities: registration of a legal entity, employees' hire and accounting reporting, creating a site, writing technical specifications for customers, drawing up contracts, receiving calls and documents, payment of accounts, and meeting with clients were laid on his shoulders.

Sales of a new software product and its popularity grew more slowly than they wanted. The “Clever” has a new product - “Data Data Reter”, which was connected as a driver to 1C. But he did not bring the popularity of the company. And only cooperation with Simbol brought to a stable annual increase in profit.

But software still remained an incomprehensible ordinary user and demanded the participation of programmers in the installation and configuration. It was then that new licensed software products "Shop 15" and "Warehouse 15" appeared on the market, allowing you to work with the goods on barcodes using mobile devices that are so popular today.

Sergey learned to read at 3 years.Even before school, he managed to re -read all the children's books in the Enem city library, and in elementary grades - everything that was on the shelves of the library near the house.

But the customer was in no hurry to pay for the work performed. The call to the owner of the plant - and a week later the money was on the account. Sergei, with a deep sense of gratitude, recalls Melnikova Valentina Vasilievna, a class teacher in secondary and high school. And it is admitted that the replenishment of his knowledge piggy bank and participation in the regional and all -Russian Olympiads is its merit.

Bauman Sergey is grateful to acquaintance of his father with Ryakhovsky Oleg Anatolyevich, Soviet athletics, silver medalist of the European Championship.
