ABOUT TechExchange
TechExchange exists to build important bridges between the UK and Ukrainian tech ecosystems, by connecting startups operating in defence and agricultural sectors with capital and individuals who can get technologies to market faster via in-field testing. Its extensive network of entrepreneurs, investors, government officials and lawyers will help to finance, open doors and create pathways to make critically important international collaborations possible.
Founded by Andriy Dovbenko in 2023, TechExchange facilitates these ecosystem connections to see situational-changing technologies save lives and support the rebuild of Ukraine's economy post-war.
Startups in TechExchange will save lives - in the truest sense of the term. Agriculture and defence are key components of Ukraine’s economy. The innovation fostered here will be critical to Ukraine’s economic survival today and in a post-war future. Cutting edge technologies deployed within the Ukraine today will impact the country, and the rest of the world, in a profound way for years to come.
Just as the WWII was the source of many technologies and scientific advances that form part of our everyday lives, the war in Ukraine and the rebuild that will follow will see critically important, cutting edge defence and agricultural technologies developed and tested in the field, accelerating their commercial adoption.
