Startup Wise Guys graduates 12 scaleups from its Growth Ukraine program

The Growth Ukraine Acceleration program by Startup Wise Guys, with participation from the EBRD and the Taiwan Business-EBRD Technical Cooperation Fund, has informed AIN about the graduation of 12 Ukrainian scaleups over four months. The scaleups showcased their pitches in Warsaw.

About the Growth Ukraine program

• The four-month acceleration initiative was designed for Ukrainian scaleups to amplify their business footprint in Europe and globally. The selected startups went through an elaborate program that included business diagnostics, intensive sprint weeks focused on performance, market engineering and product design, and guidance from coaching and mentoring.
• On April 16, the programme’s official graduation event took place at the Google for Startups Campus in Warsaw, where the startups presented their achievements. The event attracted 200 investors and founders from different countries. The stage also featured 15 international speakers and panelists, including Sharon S. N. Wu, Dan Meshulam, and Michał Kramarz.

This initiative has once again shown the resilience of Ukraine’s tech sector and its vital role in the country’s post-war recovery and reconstruction. We are very proud to assist talented Ukrainian entrepreneurs in unlocking new business opportunities, and we wish them success. We are grateful for the support of TaiwanBusiness-EBRD Technical Cooperation Fund, which has long aided our efforts to foster growth through innovation and private sector development across the EBRD region,

Alex Pivovarsky, Director of Capital and Financial Markets Development at EBRD, commented.
