Ukrainian MacPaw included in Fast Company's list of most innovative companies in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa for 2025
The well-known publication Fast Company has released its list of the ten most innovative companies for 2025, with Ukrainian IT company MacPaw, founded by Oleksandr Kosovan, included.
"You may not know that it came out of Ukraine, released by the app developer MacPaw, nor that the company continues to work even while its nation is at war with Russian invaders," Fast Company noted.
The publication also highlighted that last year, MacPaw released an updated version of its flagship app, along with a new one called CleanMyPhone, which—you guessed it—helps remove clutter on iPhones by deleting duplicate photos and other unwanted images and videos with the ease of just one tap. The app also works with iPads.
Ever since Russia ramped up its invasion, in 2022, MacPaw has offered its premium version of ClearVPN, which masks a user’s IP address and encrypts their internet traffic, free of charge to all Ukrainians around the world, helping to ensure access to secure internet connections. The company released a redesigned ClearVPN last year; the app offers an expanded server network now spread across nearly 50 countries, and is available on iOS, macOS, Android, and Windows devices.
