Well, it is a Russian company (although not legally, for obvious reasons). Kotlin is named after an island just of the coast of St Petersburg, for example.

JetBrains is a Czech company because the founders lived in Prague at the time (maybe they are still living there, no idea).

Most of the staff is Russian though which sort of makes it a Russian company I guess?
