Координатор/ка проекту / UASEEDs
ЗАВЕРШЕНО
CyberInnovate as a consortium member implementing the Seeds of Bravery Project (UASEEDs) is looking for a Project Сoordinator.
UASEEDs aimed at providing support to counteract the harm done to Ukrainian startups and deep tech SMEs in the short term, building a framework that supports the Ukrainian Government’s goal of becoming a ‘start-up nation’, and increasing the role of innovators and the deep tech industry in driving growth.

Pan-European integration – which brings UA innovation closer to investors, accelerators, potential buyers, innovation agencies and peers – will also be a key component of this project. UASEEDs is powered by a network of 17 partners and 2 associated partners, integrating Ukrainian tech innovators in European markets. We aim to strengthen Ukraine’s tech landscape, supporting local entrepreneurs for global success.
