Reviews
Today Ukraine faces a number of environmental issues. However, many of those issues have already been addressed in other countries. Therefore, we want to explore and adopt the European experience. Lviv strives to be the leader in Ukraine in the field of implementation of innovative technologies, and is willing to pave the way for other Ukrainian regions and cities.
The forum was exceptionally productive, and exceeded all our expectations. We saw true interest from our Ukrainian partners, enjoyed the crowds gathering around our booth, and established a lot of useful contacts. I’d like to thank our hosts for their outstanding support during the event.
