Special thanks to Ihor Katernyak for the invitation and to Vladyslav Podenko - founder of Lobo - for showing us around the city and some great views from the rooftop bars of the city. 🍷🍻👌🏻

Our next stop was at StartupDepot Incubator&Coworking run by Ivan Dmytrasevych 🇺🇦 . Thank you so much for arranging the on-site meetings with Ukrainian serial entrepreneur and Business Angel Anton Skrypnyk and Dmytro Horilyk - founder of DrugCards - who gave us an in-depth view into the ecosystem from the founders perspective. 🚀

Next we visited UCU Business School (LvBS) and had a very insightful lunch and a tour around the campus with Ivan Petrenko. It was amazing to see, how modern, innovative and entrepreneurial a university- which is associated with the catholic church - can be run. Great work on starting the IdeaLab and the Angel One Investment Fund! 💸 💪🏻

Last but not least, we met again with Ivan Dmytrasevych to talk about his second project Lviv Tech Angels. 😇

We were joined by Andrew Zinchuk from ZAS Ventures who is currently raising a VC Fund to invest into Early Stage Startups with resilient Ukrainian Founders! ✊

Thanks to you all for for your time, insights & perspectives and the very warm welcome to Ukraine! ❤️

Our next stop will be Kyiv - meeting with the Ukrainian Startup Fund and other ecosystem stakeholders. So excited to learn more about the Ecosystem here! 👀
