Startup developers will be able to present their ideas to the Minister of Digitalization in 1 minute

The Ministry of Digital Transformation has launched a YouTube project for the development of technological solutions — the Cabinet of Startups of Ukraine. The project will provide an opportunity for teams working with innovations to present their startups to the head of the ministry, Mykhailo Fedorov, and the editor-in-chief of AIN.UA, Ilya Kabachinsky. In return, participants will receive practical advice on how to improve their product. The meeting with the experts will take place in the elevator of the Cabinet of Ministers. Anyone who wants to «sell» their product to the minister will have only a minute to pitch.

«Our philosophy is to change the rules and think outside the box. So why not turn the elevator I take to work every day into a startup pitching space? Or even turn it into a YouTube program called the Cabinet of Startups of Ukraine to support top Ukrainian companies? Themain emphasis is on military-tech!» said Mykhailo Fedorov, head of the Ministry of Digital Transformation

The companies have already presented their technological solutions:

• Nolegator — a semantic search engine for scientific articles, patents and clinical trials
• DrillApp — a mobile application for tactical shooting and self-defense training
• TOR — a patented training complex based on virtual reality gadgets.

As a reminder, the Ministry of Digital Transformation is launching a crypto literacy course for Ukrainians. Users will have 100 hours of theory and practice in the simulator format. Working on real cases in various ecosystems, Ukrainians will learn what cryptocurrency is, how to use it, and what opportunities the virtual asset market opens up for business and society as a whole. The course will start in February 2023. The course will be available on the Diia. Digital Education portal.
