Bringing manufacturing together
Share
Manufacturing Day Ukraine is a unique opportunity to meet representatives from industry, SMEs, start-ups, research, academia and politics as well as colleagues from EIT Manufacturing.
“Connecting the dots between Ukraine and Europe” is the motto of the 30 November at Industrial Park Solomonovo, in the Uzhgorod region in Ukraine. Participants will be able to get to know the Ukrainian manufacturing ecosystem and be able to network and explore collaboration opportunities across innovation, education and business development.
EIT Manufacturing will present what the organisation has to offer to this vibrant ecosystem and also announce the BoostUp! UKRAINE start-up competition at the event.
Olga Trofymova as the EIT Manufacturing Manager Ukraine is pivotal to the organisation’s activities concerning Ukraine – she will lead through the agenda as the anchor of the event.
Manufacturing Day Ukraine is coorganised by the Ukrainian Automotive and Mobility Cluster and Ukrainian Cluster Alliance.
