The pair discuss how the ongoing war in Ukraine has changed digital business one year later, from data storage and product development to government assistance and employee mobilization. Igor reports that VIMAS has seen modest growth since the invasion, to which he credits the adaptability and resiliency of Ukrainian electricity and internet service providers. With employees in Ukraine and the United States, VIMAS continues to fulfill its business obligations while integrating the latest technological developments, like ChatGPT, into its products.
