Warsaw coworking space for Ukrainian startups
In Warsaw, on September 8, within the framework of the Polish-Ukrainian startup bridge program, a co-working space for Ukrainian startups, which have to look for new ways of developing their own business due to the war, was officially open. Each entrepreneur who fulfills the conditions of support will receive a place for work and business meetings, an opportunity to exchange experience, and find new forms of Polish-Ukrainian cooperation in the field of innovative projects.
„With the beginning of full-scale Russian aggression against Ukraine, we began to think about how to preserve the achievements of Polish-Ukrainian cooperation in recent years in the field of innovation. We asked Ukrainian technology companies what actions from our side would help survive the invasion. The answer was to promote business development in Poland and establish cooperation with Polish investors and service users. This is how the idea of opening a co-working space in Warsaw was born, which, we hope, will contribute to the establishment of a business partnership beneficial for Poland and Ukraine,”
says Lukasz Wawak, head of the PUSB program.
The new space is a great opportunity to meet founders of Ukrainian startup projects, representatives of Polish Venture Capital funds, and institutions of the business environment from Poland and Ukraine in one place.
The coworking space also hosts many events: meetups, networking, and professional meetings for startups. Follow the news on our Facebook and LinkedIn pages.
