Please join the Atlantic Council on Monday, April 30, 2018 from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the Atlantic Council Headquarters (1030 15th Street NW, 12th Floor, West Tower Elevators) for a discussion on the development of Ukraine‘s technology sector.
 

The technological revolution has provided unique new economic opportunities worldwide, and Ukraine is rife with budding entrepreneurs who are fully embracing this new landscape. Ukraine is now home to dozens of highly successful domestic tech startups, along with research and development branches of hundreds of multinational companies. At this event, Dr. Tetyana Tyshchuk, project leader of Index for Monitoring Reforms (IMoRe) at VoxUkraine, an independent and non-partisan Ukrainian analytical platform, will present a report on the growth of the Ukrainian IT sector. This will be followed by a panel discussion in which leaders from Ukraine’s technology sector and US-based experts will explore the current state of the high-tech industry in Ukraine and how the country is utilizing it to the benefit of the economy.

We hope you can join us for this timely discussion.
