London, 3 June, 2003 – Ukrainian Hi-Tech Initiative (
www.hi-tech.org.ua) jointly with Finport Technologies company(
www.finporttechnologies.com) presented exposition at OutsourceWorld London ‘2003 international exhibition. Ukrainian software developing companies revealed their scientific potential and demonstrated projects they had developed to the biggest world companies, which make orders for Hi-Tech development projects.
Experts of Ukrainian Hi-Tech Initiatives report that there are about two thousand software developing companies operating in Ukraine. Potential of already existing producers surpasses demands of the local market in great extend and thus attracts foreign outsourcing projects. Owing to high qualification level and comparatively low cost many foreign countries are intrigued to employ Ukrainian producers. Though the present day sate of affairs shows that a considerable part of Ukrainian products is being sold without any reference to their direct developers – Ukrainian professionals. Such a status quo erodes image of Ukraine as a country-software developer and hampers its independent promotion at external markets.
“The fact of consolidating the companies into one Ukrainian Hi-Tech Initiative, which aims to jointly solve complex problems represents one of the maturity signs of software development field in Ukraine and a facility to break negative bias. That is the reason why we have organized the Initiative.” denoted Victor Maznyuk, coordinator of Ukrainian Hi-Tech Initiative.
