In October, Ukraine will host its first international investment summit focused on the defense industry, named Defense Tech Valley. Scheduled for October 3-4 in Kyiv, the summit will be organized by the Brave1 defense innovations cluster.
The event will bring together hundreds of investors from Ukraine and partner countries, as well as representatives from key government agencies, military officials, developers, and experts. The summit aims to discuss strategies for transforming Ukraine into a leading global defense tech hub.
The Defense Tech Valley summit will highlight Ukrainian defense innovations, showcasing not only advanced technologies but also promising business projects to a global audience. A dedicated website has been launched for registration and further information about the summit.
"It is important to be not only successful engineers but also to create an effective and investment-attractive defense tech business," emphasizes Natalia Kushnerska, head of the Brave1 cluster.
As part of the event, Ukrainian companies will also have the opportunity to present their solutions to investors.
This opens up opportunities for securing additional funding and establishing partnerships with international investors and manufacturers.
These interactions are expected to strengthen Ukraine's position in the global defense technology market and promote the development of innovative solutions for ensuring national security.
At the same time, investors will receive a clear roadmap on how to invest in Ukrainian defense tech.
"Given that Ukraine is a leader in defense innovations, this summit offers technological ideas, networking opportunities, and a chance to become part of a rapidly evolving industry that is transforming global defense," the summit organizers stated.
