about the event
Kyiv Tech Summit is a first-of-its-kind event - a Web3 Hackathon!
Since the full-scale russian invasion of Ukraine on 24th February 2022, the situation has quickly become dire for millions of Ukrainians. Outside of the humanitarian crisis and military needs required by Ukraine, there is an unprecedented need for new tools and solutions to systemically respond to the new reality of russian war in Ukraine.
Our aim is to bring together some of the best developers, technology providers, designers, innovators, and product evangelists who are looking to solve tangible, on-the-ground issues to aid the Ukrainian people in their fight for freedom.
