In the eighth episode of Digital Planet’s Imagining a Digital Economy for All in Ukraine series, Bhaksar Chakravorti, Dean of Global Business at the Fletcher School converses with Mykola Zhandarov, CEO, Leater Integration, based out of Kyiv in Ukraine. Leater Integration is an IT company which focuses on AV and security integration. Because of the nature of the work, which primarily involves buying different hardware and integrating them for customers, as well as due to the fact that most of their customers are in Ukraine itself, Leater’s business has been negatively impacted by the war. Despite this, Mykola also expresses hope that Ukraine will emerge victorious after the war, and the tech industry will play a critical role in rebuilding the country.This is Episode 8 of a series, Imagining a Digital Economy for All (IDEA) in Ukraine.
