Algol supports Ukrainian startups’ participation in Slush 2024

Ukrainian startups will attend the Slush 2024 technology event in November as invited guests. Algol is supporting the arrival of the Ukrainian delegation in collaboration with the Technology Industries of Finland and the Helsinki-Uusimaa Regional Council. The sponsorship is collaborated together with the organiser of the delegation, Advicera, which facilitates reconstruction projects in Ukraine, helping to rebuild the country during and after the war. The sponsorship provides ten Ukrainian startups with two-person passes to the Slush event, as well as accommodation in Helsinki.

Thanks to this support, Ukrainian startups have an excellent opportunity to network, explore funding options, and showcase their innovations to an international audience.

"The Algol Group has been present on the Ukrainian market for a long time, and we remain committed to supporting the country through the war and contributing to its reconstruction alongside local businesses and entrepreneurs. Therefore, the confidence and optimism demonstrated by Ukrainian startups is both inspirational and important”, states Alexander Bargum, CEO of the Algol Group.

“Since 2018, we have been cooperating with Slush to bring together the Ukrainian and Finnish startup ecosystems. We are grateful to Slush and our sponsors for being able to provide this opportunity to Ukrainian startup entrepreneurs to benefit from the event for the third year in a row”, says Yuri Kozik, CEO of Advicera.

Slush is one of the world's leading startup events, held annually, bringing together tech entrepreneurs, investors, and visionaries from around the globe. The event is particularly known for its energetic atmosphere and its focus on fostering growth in the global tech and business sectors. Slush 2024 will take place on Nov 20–21, at the Helsinki Expo and Convention Center.
