RESTART 2025: Ukraine's largest conference on business, technology, and startups to be held in Kyiv
On October 24–25, Kyiv will host a two-day RESTART conference, bringing together entrepreneurs, investors, top managers, and business owners who are not waiting for better times but are creating them themselves. The event will be an essential platform for sharing experiences, networking, and business development.
RESTART is organized by AIN.UA, Molfar, Techosystem, DEV Challenge, and idealer$.
The goal of the conference is to bring together business, technology, and startup culture, becoming a platform for those who are restarting themselves in business, ideas, and actions.
Volodymyr Zavadyuk, head of Big Brave Events at 1+1 Media, will join the conference with the topic "The Power of Content: When and Why a Show Becomes More Than Entertainment."
Why RESTART?
"How to reboot yourself, your work, and your business? This question gave rise to the idea of a conference where everyone can look at their own career, goals, and tasks from a different angle. The format is informal and without ties, just two intense days of learning and practice from those who define the business and technology sphere in Ukraine. Restart with us," – says Oleksandr Strelnikov, editor-in-chief of AIN, about the event.
What awaits guests:
- Morning DJ set from Kyiv Morning Coffee Club;
- Taras Panasenko (Aurora) and Artem Borodatyuk (FRACTAL) on treadmills on the big stage will talk about how to perceive time off not as a loss, but as an investment in productivity.
- Andriy Zinchuk (ZAS Group) and Denys Sichkov (Horizon Capital) will share what they never invest in during the Reverse Pitching panel.
- The founders of the Drama Queen agency, Anna Goncharova and Oleksandr Khmyrov, will reveal the formula for Drama-tic campaigns.
- Oleg Svyshch (idealer$) will moderate a candid discussion about business from those who do it.
- Performances by Latexfauna on October 24 and Hyphen Dash on October 25
- Olga Martynovskaya will cook a secret dish with the speakers on the main stage.
- Silpo and Budynok Igraшок will tell you how to become an absolute lovemark in Ukraine.
- Volodymyr Zavadyuk will discuss the power of content and when and why a show becomes more than just entertainment.
- We will conduct an interactive AI test drive in real time, learn how to build your own Google, and why a restart ≠ rebranding.
"Businesspeople, leaders, visionaries — they are not afraid of failure: they take bold steps into the unknown, fall and rise, but what can hinder these superpowers? There is only one kryptonite here — the inability or lack of skill to reboot. RESTART is not a standard conference where we sit on chairs and talk; we take action because that is the next step after experience. At our event, you will fall in love with what you do again. Press reset on your skills and dive into your restart," – says Maksym Chekhovskyi, Commercial Director of AIN.UA.
