Baltic investors in the Ukrainian market, especially in the IT industry. This
deal is a bright example of this trend. IT, together with agribusiness, are the
most attractive industries for foreign investors and, at the same time, the
leading forces of Ukrainian economy. Needless to say that we are happy to be a
part of this trend.”
