Now Ukrainian IT companies and startups will have even more opportunities for development, including easier access to additional funding from British investors and the receipt of grants.
This information was shared by the Minister of Digital Transformation, Mykhailo Fedorov.
The UK-Ukraine TechBridge, first announced at the Ukraine Recovery Conference in 2023 by the UK Prime Minister, aims to bridge the gap between UK and Ukrainian tech businesses, helping to build up the resilience and continue the development of a thriving Ukrainian sector despite the challenges of war.
"The project will enable Ukrainian businesses to collaborate more effectively with their British colleagues and partners. We have already proven ourselves as one of the most resilient technological ecosystems in the world. Therefore, we are ready to export and share this experience further," mentioned Fedorov.
UK-Ukraine TechBridge is beneficial for both countries. New partnerships with top players in the British IT industry will allow the development of powerful joint products and services.
An essential part of this initiative is the reskilling and upskilling programs for Ukrainian IT specialists. Representatives from leading global companies such as Cisco, Salesforce, and Oracle will share their experience and expertise. Therefore, after participating in these programs, Ukrainian developers will strengthen the Ukrainian IT industry.
"Thanks to the British and the United Kingdom Government for supporting Ukraine's powerful technological future"
