"On this platform, we will share our experience on how to create and develop something interesting in commercial or social projects. To demonstratehow new technologies allow people to find help, generate new skills and knowledge, - he said. - Today we will start with medicine. The participants will tell how they managed to reach their goals and what they were doing for this. I assure you, hard work is behind all this, but there is no any Sacred Grail. The more we travel the world and see projects, for instance in Silicon Valley or China, the more wecan see – we are all the same. Just someone is more, and someone is less diligently working. Any Ukrainian project has every opportunity to become successful by global standards.”

At our next events we will try to pay attention to each of these directions and to organize a similarly interesting discussion”, - noted Vladimir Krivko.
