Entrepreneurial activity is the foundation of stability and viability of economies not only in Europe but also around the world. Over the past years, Ukrainian entrepreneurs have gained extensive experience in conducting business under challenging conditions. Today, their implemented practices are met with respect and admiration from colleagues in other European countries. On May 31, 2024, the DroneUA Group participated in the second online workshop "Unleashing Entrepreneurial Potential in Europe," where it shared its own developments in the growth and support of SMEs in Ukraine, as well as thoughts on building international business partnerships. Together with experts from entrepreneurial ecosystems in France, Bulgaria, Greece, and Ireland, we explored key solutions to urgent problems that strengthen business innovators.
"DroneUA is the center for initiating and developing entire ecosystems of innovative agriculture in Ukraine. This experience is noticeable and recognized at the level of the entire European Union. The artificial barriers that existed between countries and hindered the exchange of experiences and ideas are disappearing today. Entrepreneurs are starting to understand the global nature of their ideas and find like-minded individuals worldwide, leading to the creation of extraordinary projects and startups. Ukraine's future is with Europe, and we have much to offer. This is evidenced by the high involvement of domestic businesses in building European ecosystems of innovative entrepreneurship," shared Valerii Yakovenko, CEO and founder of FarmFleet, DroneUA.
DroneUA sees sustainable development of small and medium-sized enterprises only in strategic partnership with business, education, and government. Therefore, every day, DroneUA works on building dialogue and establishing cooperation between all parties, initiating its own events and participating in expert discussions.
DroneUA expresses gratitude to the ExcellEnt Project for the invitation to participate, organizing the event, and promoting current issues. The company is thankful to colleagues from other countries for fruitful discussions, presenting alternative viewpoints, and joint developments.
