Crypto In Ukraine: The Digital Transformation Of A Country Under Siege

In the 7 months since Russia invaded Ukraine, we have all watched in horror at the needless loss of life and senseless destruction of a free and democratic nation. But simultaneously we have also been inspired by the bravery and resilience of the Ukrainians.

In this week’s special episode, Alex Bornyakov, the Ukrainian (Deputy Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine on IT industry development) joins our host, Ian Andrews (CMO) to discuss a wide range of topics including the role of Crypto in Ukraine’s fundraising and defense efforts and Alex’s plans to attract tech investment into the country with initiatives like Diia city.

Alex touches on his journey from tech entrepreneur to government minister and leaves the audience with inspiring words on how Ukraine will not give up home and continue to build during the invasion.
