After all, innovations are the engine that can give an impetus to Ukraine’s development,” said Vitalii Pogosian, director of the Department of Economics and Investments of Vinnytsia City Council.
Polish funds are ready to support Ukrainian start-ups and young companies. They communicate very closely with representatives of innovative ideas that are considered for investing. After all, venture capital is designed to finance a company that only tests its business model.
In the field of digitalization on the territory of Vinnytsia employ almost 300 legal entities and more than 2400 individual entrepreneurs. The share of information services exports is steadily high – 65.8% of total exports of services in 2018. In such a concentration of developments and business entities, creating favorable conditions for the development of creative industries and innovative technologies is a priority task for the Vinnytsia City Council, headed by Sergei Morgunov. That is why the team of the city is working on the creation of the first municipal platform for the development of innovations – the “Vinnytsia Innovation and Technology Park”. It will be a magnet for startups and will allow talented teams to realize their potential in their hometown.
The Polish-Ukrainian Startup Bridge organizers are initiated by the Polish Ministry of Investments and Development, funded by the Foundation for Cooperation. Among the partners is the Reactor open innovation platform, the Polish National Center for Research and Development, and the Simpact VC venture fund, AgriTech, which deals with innovations in agriculture.
