Dear Colleagues,

The Center for US-Ukrainian Relations is delighted to welcome you to a critical, possibly seminal, business forum it has co-organized with the A7 GROUP entitled: ‘International Investment Forum and Road Show: Invest in Ukraine: Revealing the Potential’.

During the last decade, the Center, among its other responsibilities, has had several opportunities to highlight developments in Ukraine’s economy. Each event has touched upon a particular and distinct facet of the country’s world of business.

This year’s gathering is potentially of special interest for its participants because it intends to focus on those industrial sectors that truly deserve another look from the global investment community. For all involved, we fervently hope that such will be the case.

Kindest regards,

Walter Zaryckyj, Ph.D.Executive Director
