UAtech: Empowering Ukrainian Founders to Conquer Global Markets

UAtech: Empowering Ukrainian Founders to Conquer Global Markets


Share this post

Today, as the founder of UAtech, I’m proud to lead a passionate movement alongside like-minded colleagues and fellow entrepreneurs. Together, we are working to create a platform that helps Ukrainian startups break into global markets with minimal cost and maximum support.

This mission is deeply personal to me. Beyond UAtech, I’m also building solutions that simplify the lives of independent professionals and small landlords around the world. As the founder of SOLU, I’m developing an AI-powered assistant that helps solo professionals manage bookings, client communication, and scheduling through a seamless, message-based interface. And as the co-founder of Teno, I’m helping landlords automate rent collection, maintenance, and financial reporting — all in one app — designed especially for those managing up to 10 units.

These projects reflect my belief that great technology should empower people — not overwhelm them. That same belief is what drives UAtech.

Ukrainian founders are truly the heroes of today’s entrepreneurial world—innovative, resilient, and driven by a desire to overcome challenges. Despite the war and difficult circumstances, they continue to build exceptional products and grow strong teams. They have the innovation, energy, and determination to succeed. However, to conquer global markets, they need a shortcut—the missing pieces that can turn potential into global success. This is the core mission of UAtech.

We have identified five key components that every Ukrainian founder needs to accelerate their journey and successfully launch on the global stage:

  • Visibility: To ensure Ukrainian startups are not only seen but also recognized as global leaders in innovation.
  • Funding: We connect Ukrainian founders with international investors who are eager to support high-potential startups.
  • Global Exposure: Providing access to major global events and international platforms where Ukrainian startups can showcase their products and capabilities.
  • Strategic Partnerships: Helping startups form key alliances with global players, which can lead to long-term growth and expansion.
  • Local Communities: Building a global network of local hubs and entrepreneurial communities that support Ukrainian founders on their journey abroad.

These five key elements are our focus, and our role is to ensure that Ukrainian startups receive the resources, guidance, and connections they need to thrive. The incredible potential already exists in the form of outstanding products, strong teams, and a deep desire to learn and grow—now we just need to connect the dots and help them navigate the global market.

The core goal of UAtech is to make Ukrainian startups visible and successful on the global stage. Visibility alone is not enough; we aim for them to be seen as innovative leaders in the global tech ecosystem with a steady path to growth and success.

How We Provide Value to Founders

Visibility through Media

At UAtech, we understand the importance of visibility in the tech industry. That’s why we focus on providing media exposure for Ukrainian startups, allowing them to reach international audiences and establish credibility on a global scale. Through strategic partnerships with top-tier media outlets, we ensure that every Ukrainian startup gets the recognition they deserve.

Strategic Partnerships with Ecosystem Players and Organizations

We recognize the importance of forming strategic partnerships with key players in the global ecosystem. That’s why UAtech works closely with large organizations, investors, and ecosystem facilitators that support startup growth and development. By connecting Ukrainian startups with these influential partners, we help them access the resources, networks, and opportunities needed to scale successfully in international markets.

Through these partnerships, UAtech provides access to incubators, accelerators, venture capital firms, and industry associations that are essential for nurturing the growth of high-potential startups. These collaborations ensure that Ukrainian startups not only survive but thrive in the global marketplace.

Global Events: Unlocking Opportunities for Ukrainian Startups

We connect Ukrainian startups with key international events that provide a platform for visibility, investment, and partnerships.

Building Connections with Local Communities

For an early-stage startup founder, breaking into a new market can be daunting. Questions like “How do I find investors in Berlin?” or “Who can help me in New York?” are common. Our network is designed to provide answers through structured engagement. We are committed to strengthening ties with local entrepreneurial communities in key cities worldwide. By engaging with local tech hubs, accelerators, and innovation spaces, UAtech fosters direct connections between Ukrainian startups and local ecosystems. These connections are invaluable for building partnerships, gaining insights into local markets, and navigating the challenges of international expansion. We focus on building relationships with influential community leaders and industry experts who can mentor startups, introduce them to potential partners, and guide them through the complexities of international business.

Our collaborations with local communities also include organizing meetups, workshops, and networking events where Ukrainian founders can meet like-minded entrepreneurs and learn from industry leaders in their target markets.

UAtech Venture

We are launching UAtech Venture, a program designed to provide startups with access to funding, mentorship, and strategic partnerships. This initiative will help startups secure investment, connect with key partners, and receive the guidance they need to thrive on the global stage.

The Road Ahead

Over the next year, our priority is to solidify our presence in key global markets, ensuring that when a startup founder asks, “How do I break into this ecosystem?”, we provide a direct and actionable answer

I invite all active founders, investors, and those interested in collaborating to join UAtech. We are open to new partnerships and are ready to work with those who believe in the power of Ukrainian startups and are committed to supporting them on their path to global success.
