The “Ukraine 2030 Vision” International Business Forum will bring together experts, representatives of business, government, and international organizations to discuss long-term development scenarios for Ukraine in the context of today’s global challenges.

Ukraine’s future will be shaped by the combined impact of three key drivers: the war, climate change, and the rise of artificial intelligence. Despite their different origins, these forces interact and generate new challenges for the country — in reconstruction, the economy, and the environment.

Among the Forum’s key topics is green post-war recovery as an integral part of Ukraine’s long-term sustainable development strategy.

The event is co-organized by Crowe Mikhailenko and the project PROGRESS, which focuses on helping Ukraine’s agricultural sector adapt to climate change. The initiative is funded by the German government and implemented by GIZ in partnership with the OECD, REC Caucasus, EBA Moldova, and the Institute for Economics and Forecasting of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.

Crowe Mikhailenko is part of the global network Crowe Global — one of the TOP-10 international audit and consulting companies, represented in over 150 countries around the world. We provide comprehensive tax, legal and business consulting services, helping clients optimize processes, reduce risks and achieve strategic goals.

The project PROGRESS ‘Promoting Green Deal Readiness in the Eastern Partnership Countries’ is funded by the International Climate Initiative (IKI) of the German Federal Government and is implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, as the lead agency, in partnership with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the Regional Environmental Centre for the Caucasus (REC), the European Business Association (EBA) Moldova and the Institute for Economics and Forecasting of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine (IEF).
