Investing in Ukraine - what's the real story on the ground about opportunities now and in the future

from History in the Making: The War in Ukraine

In this episode, my business partner Andrew Pryma and I felt like we had to break alot of the misconceptions of the economy and business environment in Ukraine and delve into what's really happening on the ground. We speak everyday with the top Western investors in the country so have strong insight into what is actually happening, what they're seeing, how they're feeling, and how they view the future. Please have a listen to understand better what's happening on the ground in Ukraine - which companies are investing, which sectors are thriving, which are struggling, what are the long-term opportunities, and what's holding back businesses from investing. Andrew Pryma, Founder of Ukraine Business News (UBN) and UBN Network, Andrew is a former investment banker with over 20 years of investment management experience, specializing in energy and real estate development. His previous roles were as a financial analyst at Goldman Sachs (NYC) and as a project manager for the largest real estate development firms in the US, including Ryan Homes, Prestige Homes, and Tishman Speyer.As founder of Ukrtrade Capital, he leads a Ukraine-based team currently working on construction and energy projects. Our plans include the construction of two precast concrete plants, production facilities for construction materials, affordable housing development, and commercial initiatives that use internal energy resources.Andrew can be contacted at [email protected] for any investment inquiries.
