The UK-Ukraine TechBridge
A strategic partnership between the UK Government, Ukraine Ministry of Digital Transformation and Ukraine Ministry of Foreign Affairs to forge connections between our tech eco-systems
The UK-Ukraine TechBridge, first announced at the Ukraine Recovery Conference in 2023 by the UK Prime Minister, aims to connect UK and Ukrainian tech businesses, build resilience and continue the development of a thriving Ukrainian tech sector despite the challenges of war.
The UK-Ukraine TechBridge will support the delivery of new business-to-business and business-to-government engagement through in-person and virtual events, and provide guidance for businesses and individuals interested in working in the UK or Ukraine.
It is being implemented in partnership with industry and academia from the UK and Ukraine to create new opportunities across four pillars: skills, innovation, trade and investment.
Skills
We will promote training and guidance to help build new technical and business skills for career development.
Innovation
We will facilitate workshops to create technological solutions to address existing industrial challenges.
Trade
We will break down barriers and bring businesses together from both nations to prosper from mutual growth through events and guidance.
