Razom/IT presents Ukraine: Rise of Tech Nation with Yevgen Sysoyev

An astounding number of tech innovations around the globe are fueled by talent from Ukraine. You might not realize it, but you have benefited from them if you’ve used Ford’s in-car infotainment system, Reuters' award-winning photography app, Nokia’s customer retail experience, or Deutsche Bank’s Risk Management System.

People are starting to take notice. Last month George Soros announced that he made a significant investment in a tech firm in Ukraine. He has a solid record of making big bets ahead of the curve. Razom/IT invites you to explore that part of Ukraine.

Join us for an evening with decision­ makers from companies in the US who hire technology talent, as well as software engineers and investors to learn about Ukraine: Rise of Tech Nation. You’ll hear about established players like global R&D shop Ciklum as well as early-stage startups.

​Our Keynote speaker is Yevgen Sysoyev who is a founder and managing partner at AVentures Capital, an international venture capital fund that invests in international startups with R&D in Eastern European countries, with a particular focus on Ukraine.
