Hey there!
Zapal on the line with updates and just cool stories.

And as usually, this had happened way before we’re telling you this.
*6 months ago, actually…*
Zapal was selected a member of the IT Ukraine Association's EdTech and FinTech Committees.
This leap aligns perfectly with our mission to drive innovation in education and finance through cutting-edge technology.

We’re sharing this article in December, when all the strategic sessions within both committees had already been done, and the mapping of the vertical is available.

Yet! We still wanted to tell you a little more for now👀
Thus, we are sharing with you some summary here, and more detailed info down below!

In June, the team of ITU on their website mentioned:
”During the series of strategic meetings spanning the next half of the year, the participating companies will exchange their experience, single out the challenges arising in the Cyber Security field, Agricultural Market, financial and educational technologies, as well as productively work on developing the mapping, strengthening the expertise and shaping series of initiatives per each vertical.”

The goal of the creation of the committees is to create a range of initiatives that will serve as a foundation for the sustainable growth of these industries.

Participants actively contributed to shaping next year's roadmap, generating ideas and setting priorities. Alongside the strategic sessions, we’re also mapping the market and stakeholders, identifying key players in the Ukrainian EdTech and FinTech verticals.

The EdTech and FinTech Catalogs feature an overview of major players, industry trends, achievements, challenges, and future opportunities. This is a vital tool for the IT Ukraine Association to attract new partners, clients, and investors, while boosting the global presence of Ukrainian tech.

The goal of mapping the market is to drive innovation in education, promote tech integration in learning, and draw attention from investors to Ukrainian EdTech and FinTech projects.

 

EdTech Committee strategic sessions


During the sessions, ITU team and the companies tackled everything from government relations and legal stuff to scaling up and conquering new markets.

On July 18, the Association’s EdTech Committee held its first strategic session.

The first strategic session of the EdTech committee was dynamic and productive. For the first time, Ukrainian EdTech leaders have a shared space to exchange ideas and address challenges.

Members shared their vision for developing the EdTech sector in Ukraine and internationally, while also highlighting key challenges and market issues they face.

On October 10, the IT Ukraine Association’s EdTech Committee held its second strategic session. The participants concentrated on prioritizing key issues and crafting practical solutions for the committee’s future plans.

The session addressed the following topics:

  • Collaboration between business and government.
  • Support for the growth of Ukrainian EdTech companies.
  • Promoting the Ukrainian EdTech sector internationally.
  • Building and strengthening the Ukrainian EdTech brand.

    Venturing into FinTech


    On July 31, the IT Ukraine FinTech Committee held its first strategic session, kicking off regular meetings to address industry challenges and explore growth opportunities. The session brought together representatives from 16 companies.

    The session was an ideal starting point, where we identified shared challenges, discussed key issues, and brainstormed potential solutions to guide our future efforts.

    The committee’s main priorities are open collaboration with government agencies and promoting Ukrainian FinTech products internationally.

    At the first strategic session, we discussed key industry challenges and potential solutions. This meeting was a pivotal step in the FinTech Committee’s development and set the course for future collaboration and growth in Ukraine.
