The Power of Ukrainian IT Consulting: A Look into Gartner's Recent Research

Article

In an age where technology and innovation are increasingly important, the IT sector in Ukraine stands strong. Despite the challenges of the Russian invasion that started in February 2022, Ukraine's IT industry has continued to grow. Today, its services and products are known for their robustness and customer-centric approach, spanning across different technologies and industries. This resilience has not only become a beacon of hope for the nation but also a significant consideration for global CIOs and technology CEOs when shaping their strategies

As highlighted by a recent study by Gartner, one of the world's leading research and advisory companies, the Ukrainian IT industry has proven to be the largest operational Ukrainian export industry even amidst the full-scale Russian invasion. Its highly skilled workforce, cost-effective services, and innovative products continue to attract global clients.

A key strength of Ukraine's IT industry lies in its expertise in cybersecurity, the Internet of Things (IoT), AI, and cloud computing. The country has faced numerous elaborate cyberattacks, which triggered significant investment and research in cyber defense. Consequently, Ukrainian businesses and government institutions have become particularly strong in these areas.

Furthermore, Ukraine is home to over 90 international research and development (R&D) centers, contributing to cutting-edge technologies and solutions. Leveraging Ukraine's beneficial tax policies and incentives, these technology companies continue to innovate and grow.
