Warsaw, Poland – June 13, 2024 – The Union of Ukrainian Entrepreneurs (SUP), the largest Ukrainian business association, joyfully announced the opening of its first European office headquartered in Warsaw, Poland. This move is a logical extension of the cooperation between SUP and its European partners.
“The opening of the European office for SUP is a historic event,” noted Kateryna Glazkova, CEO of SUP. “It underscores our resilience and belief in Ukraine’s future. We aim to become a powerful voice for Ukrainian business in Europe and foster economic relations between Ukraine and the EU.” We are grateful to our event partner Nova Post for their support in organizing this significant occasion.
The European office of UUE will serve as a platform to enhance connections with European partners, investors, and clients.
“My experience over these past two years of collaboration in various international forums and events shows a significant demand for cooperation with Ukraine. However, skepticism also exists. Our primary role is to be a reliable partner when someone seeks collaboration in Ukraine. Conversely, when searching for partners outside Ukraine, our colleagues from other associations will assist in finding reliable partners. Together with you, we will shape service packages that are most beneficial,” said Kateryna Glazkova.
The main objectives of the SUP office in Poland include:
- Establishing connections with European partners, investors, and clients.
- Facilitating the entry of Ukrainian companies into the European market.
- Attracting investments into the Ukrainian economy.
- Advocating for the interests of Ukrainian businesses in Europe.
- Supporting Ukrainian entrepreneurs affected by the war.
“We believe that SUP can become a valuable partner for European entrepreneurs interested in doing business in Ukraine,” added Ms. Glazkova. “Ukraine has great growth potential, and we are ready to help European companies capitalize on these opportunities.”
SUP is an association that unites approximately 1200 Ukrainian entrepreneurs from various sectors and regions. The organization actively collaborates with international business associations and has a track record of successful projects with international partners.
“Our Union goes where its participants aim, where the goal of participants flies, where the goal of the entire Ukrainian business lies. We hope this step is just the first towards global expansion for SUP!” – Konstantyn Magaletskyi, co-founder of SUP.
Around 60 guests attended the grand opening of the SUP office in Warsaw, including SUP founders, Ukrainian and Polish entrepreneurs, representatives of Polish-Ukrainian business associations, and diplomatic representatives of Ukraine in Poland.
The opening of the European office for SUP is a positive event for Ukrainian business and for Europe as a whole. It demonstrates the resilience of the Ukrainian people and their aspiration for integration into the European community.
