A new marketplace, CodeUA, has been launched in Ukraine to help foreign customers easily connect with Ukrainian IT professionals, as announced by Mykhailo Fedorov, Ukraine’s Minister of Digital Transformation.

What the Platform Is and How It Works

• CodeUA is a global marketplace designed to showcase top Ukrainian technology companies. The platform will help large international businesses find partners among Ukrainian IT specialists.
• The marketplace will allow customers to select the necessary categories, after which CodeUA will match them with suitable professionals. In the future, CodeUA plans to integrate an AI assistant to enhance the matching process.

«For Ukrainian companies, CodeUA provides an opportunity to find new partnerships, attract investments, and secure profitable contracts. This will ultimately improve the export performance of the industry and increase the share of IT in the country’s GDP,» commented Fedorov.

• The platform is already live and available for use. Companies can register by email to be listed in the catalog.
• According to Fedorov, CodeUA is similar to Upwork but tailored for global businesses and IT companies.

«Our IT specialists create cutting-edge solutions used by millions of people worldwide. Ryanair, Cisco, Motorola, Volvo, and Volkswagen all have one thing in common: they rely on Ukrainian code. We need to increase the number of such cases and create the most favorable conditions for tech business development to transform Ukraine into a hub of technological innovation,» he explained.

• CodeUA was created with the support of the USAID Competitive Economy of Ukraine Program and developed with assistance from the Lviv IT Cluster.
