The economy, markets, and rules of the game have changed. It's time for an honest conversation—what is an IT business in Ukraine really worth today, why valuations have dropped, and what can actually help increase your company's value.Together with our speakers, we'll explore which factors have the greatest impact on business value, what builds investor confidence, what an investment-ready business looks like through a buyer's eyes, and how even during a crisis, a company can become attractive to partners or investors.
THE TALK WILL COVER:
● The new valuation context: How war has changed approaches to business valuation and what buyers and investors focus on now● Risk management: Which factors lower trust and how to mitigate them—from team location to mobilization risks● Stability signals: What creates confidence in your company in the eyes of partners and investors● Financial transparency: Why structured financial reporting is critical for valuation and where to start if your finances aren't systematic● Client portfolio: How client quality, diversification, and long-term contracts impact value● Strategic vision: How to formulate a compelling business story and demonstrate growth potential● Real cases: Examples of companies that maintained or increased their valuation during wartime● Practical steps: What you can do today to systematically increase your business value
WHO SHOULD ATTEND:
