What literature/resources would you recommend for those who decide to open an IT company in Russia?

I am primarily interested in issues related to taxation, accounting, etc.
I have many friends who would like to work with me, there is an accountant and a lawyer. But I do not have a specialized education, and I cannot properly evaluate their work. Perhaps textbooks from universities will help me? But what are the key items?

But what are the key items?

UC
Dale Carnegie. How to win friends and influence people
Still worth learning sales from the director
And how to work in a sharply shrinking market

If you do not know how to work well within the company, then you definitely will not get along in free swimming.
First: For the reason that almost every second person like your director is in free swimming, and you still have to lick them!
Second: We'll have to work dozens of times more!
Third: You will have to learn a lot of legal and financial
things Fourth: It will all have to be done in one unit of time and ALL AT ONCE
So, first learn how to "sell" to your director something that will allow you to get along well with him. And only then should you think about your business

I understand that the question was not whether to study, but what to read. And yet: two reasons why you will have to postpone this venture for several years.
1) Your motivation is dissatisfaction with the size of the director's piece. You are still living his life, which means you are not self-sufficient.
2) You focus on minor issues that you don’t actually meet in business (suddenly, but it’s true).
You may be a smart person, but you need to reach a more mature state in order to start your own business.

Taxation and accounting are probably the least important issues associated with opening a company.
At first, just use the services elba.kontur.ru or www.moedelo.org And if necessary, hire an accountant familiar with these sites who will spend ten hours a month on you.
The most important thing in IT is finding customers, finding and hiring employees, and the company's ability to bring the project to completion.

A burning question, apparently after a couple of beers. When organizing a company, the main thing is to determine its strengths and weaknesses - this means understanding which areas to strengthen the most and which ones to leave at a basic level. It is clear that you will need people who will administer the company's activities, it is clear that you need people who will move it forward. But it is important to understand where to take experts, and where you can take a mother on a part-time maternity leave. I will give a simple example from practice: a company is engaged in custom software development, it is necessary to strengthen sales and technical pre-sale, i.e. experts should be hired for these positions. Who are the experts? These are people with at least 5 thousand hours of practice in this area, which is correspondingly. about 5 years of work. It is clear that the answer lay on the surface, of course, it is necessary to take expert programmers to a software development company,

Pay attention to the courses and the Netology library in the sections Management, Finance, HR, Sales, etc. I have not seen a complete publication describing your questions. Textbooks from universities will not help exactly.
For you now the main thing is the team and understanding of your product: what you offer, to whom you offer and for how much. Try to sell your product/service while you work for your uncle. If the clients are willing, create your own office. If you can't find clients, think again.

Define the range of questions you are interested in, but in more detail. And then read all the latest on the net or in professional literature, over time everything will fall into place and understanding will come.
The method is tested on myself :)

I recommend podcasts sharkov.podfm.ru , runetologia.podfm.ru , it-career.podfm.ru/. Textbooks from universities, I think, will not help much. Most of them will contain a lot of outdated information and, more importantly in your case, will not have something that will help you get started: the experience of those who created a successful business. In the first two podcasts, you will just be able to hear the stories of those who were able to create a business in our time. The second podcast will help you hear the experience of different IT people and find out what motivates them. At the end of this podcast episode, guests recommend books. If you listen to the releases of project managers and business owners, I think it may be useful for you.
After listening to podcasts many names, companies will become familiar. At conferences related to the guests of the programs, you will be able to meet those who you need, ask the right questions. Yes, and in the comments to the podcasts you can ask questions.
