the employment relations with the software developers.

Nechayev commented the following: “We are seeing an increased interest of

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.”
