For the first time ever, Ukraine hosted a pavilion at the world\u2019s largest digital tech conference as the synergy of government institutions and businesses.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/parimatch.tech\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Parimatch Tech<\/a>, an international product company that provides tech and marketing solutions in the entertainment and betting industry, was honoured to represent Ukraine as the country\u2019s leading IT market player. Maksym Liashko, Parimatch Tech\u2019s co-CEO, held a panel discussion and shared his thoughts about Ukraine\u2019s promising future in tech.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cThe phrase \u201cMade in China\u201d is not surprising to anyone nowadays, considering the impressive global expansion of the Chinese market, touching almost every industry. In a few years, the phrase \u201cDeveloped in Ukraine\u201d will become as widespread. And it won\u2019t be surprising for anyone working in the IT industry, keeping in mind Ukraine\u2019s explosive growth in terms of startups, \u201cunicorns\u201d, and hundreds of thousands of absolutely incredible talented developers, project managers, creators emerging.\u201d<\/em> <strong>\u2014 Maksym started.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Parimatch Tech, operating in 14 countries, was born in Ukraine, continues to grow and develop in Ukraine, and plans to continue its global expansion from Ukraine.

As the company successfully operating in multiple countries, Parimatch Tech believes that Ukraine is one of the best places to develop and run a global IT business.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cDespite Parimatch Tech\u2019s global presence, the company\u2019s largest R&amp;D office is based in Ukraine\u2019s capital, Kyiv. Why? The professional environment, high standards of tech education, and adaptive business approaches make Ukraine one of the best places to develop business globally. Ukraine is a unique country where working and living is equally pleasant.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Ukraine becomes more and more visible on the world\u2019s map each year, and it\u2019s booming IT sector is one of the reasons, Maksym believes. It is easy to relocate in Ukraine, and it is easy to do business, and the reason behind this is Ukrainians\u2019 high professional adaptability \u2014 it\u2019s as easy for us to work with locals as it is to host foreigners.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cIt\u2019s easy to work from Ukraine and establish global partnerships. Being a Ukrainian company, Parimatch Tech has managed to sign contracts with some of the biggest global sports companies, including Juventus FC, Leicester FC, Everton FC, Chelsea FC, and UFC. So, it\u2019s only a matter of time till \u201cDeveloped in Ukraine\u201d becomes another benchmark in the IT industry.\u201d<\/em> \u2014 <strong>Maksym Liashko concluded.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Ukrainian IT sector overview<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is hard not to notice how thriving the Ukrainian IT sector is: its yearly growth is five times faster (25%) than the global average (4-6%), and there seems to be no sign of slowing down in the future.
