Tèhnalogìâ

Tèhnalogìâ (Russian: «Технология») is a Belarusian non-state scientific-production company and publishing house headquartered in Minsk. Founded in 1988, it describes its mission as contributing to the development of market relations and civil society in Belarus. Its publishing output focuses primarily on reference works and scientific publications, though it also produces popular-science, educational, practical, artistic, and advertising literature in multiple world languages. Beyond book publishing, the company is active in printing and polygraphic services — producing books, brochures, forms, business cards, booklets, prospectuses, and certificates — as well as in the sale of medical products and medical equipment, and wholesale trade. Its corporate mark is based on an old engraving titled "Winged Dragon," taken from a treatise by the 17th-century Belarusian scholar Kazimir Semenovich, known for inventions in rocketry, artillery, and pyrotechnics, including a design for a multi-stage rocket. In February 2026 the publishing house announced it was suspending operations. Soon afterward it became known that publisher Vatslau Bahdanovich and his family had been arrested. In the summer of that same year, a Belarusian court recognized the publishing house as an extremist organization.
