The War Special Ep.10 - Andriy Klen

Andriy Klen is the co-founder of Pet Cube, design buro Ozero and since recently a platform supporting Ukrainian business Spend with Ukraine. In this episode we discussed how badass Ukrainians are for having multiple jobs at a time. Literally everyone does that right now: working your main job and then volunteering the rest of your time, which is a full-time job in itself. How do we still keep going like this? Where does the inspiration to actively run so many things come from? We also met with Andriy before the war and he had mentioned that his companies had plans for evacuation while we were convinced that a full on invasion is totally nuts. What were the first days for his companies like? What is it like to be a business leader in this time of war? How did he come up with an idea of Spend for Ukraine - a marketplace for all the things and services Ukraine has to offer, and what is the international response to this initiative like? Listen to an episode to get answers to all the questions above. And check Spend with Ukraine - we love it and everyone should love it too.

The War Special Ep.9 - Maya Baklanova & Tanya Voytko

In this episode we spoke to Maya Baklanova & Tanya Voytko, representatives of the ∄ community fund. ∄ is a phenomenal Kyiv based arts and music institution, of cult status. And the ∄ fund is aimed to provide financial, humanitarian and logistical support to the musical and cultural community that has been facing life-threatening challenges since the beginning of the russian invasion of Ukraine. At the beginning of the war the club community released an open letter - explaining what’s going on, indicating the ways the world can help and calling to cancel russian art and artists. A lot of people understood and supported, but in general this letter was largely discussed and heavily criticized and many people from western community still dare to think that “music is not political”. Apart from the fund activities we discussed the Ukrainian electronic music scene a bit. For instance, a couple of episodes ago Nastia DJ said that the Ukrainian electronic scene fell apart and showed itself as not being as united as we all thought it was. What do Maya and Tanya have to say about such a statement? In short: their experience is totally different. Listen to the new episode to understand the raw and authentic ukrainian electronic scene and how it survives during the War.

The War Special Ep.8 - Oleksandr Akymenko

Oleksandr Akymenko is the founder of Yes And Design - an innovations and design thinking consulting firm, one of the founders of platfor.ma - a major media outlet in Ukraine, co-founder of The Ukrainian Emerging Leaders Program at Stanford University and now he is a big part of the Ukrainian Global University. Sasha told us a lot about Ukrainian Global University. Basically it's not an actual university, but a metaphor, an organization that unites a lot of educational establishments who host Ukrainian students, who pay scholarships, fellowships etc. By now there are around 60 institutions (and hopefully this number is growing) around the world are 2700 Ukrainian applicants. The main goal is not to lose talents, to rebuild Ukraine with these students, to prevent the brain drain: all applicants sign a contract that obliges them to return to Ukraine afterwards. This and many more interesting insights about educational support, lack of Ukrainian presence in the major world's universities and Sasha's personal views on what's going on in Ukraine in the new episode.

The War Special Ep.7 - Olga Hamama

We talked to Olha Hamama, who is a lawyer in Frankfurt, Germany and the founder of a huge non-profit to help Ukraine called United For Ukraine. Since the day 1 of the war Olga's project unites professionals from all over Europe and provides legal support, housing and options for education for Ukrainian refugees. For example, United for Ukraine collaborated with Airbnb to provide housing for Ukrainians fleeing their homes - they book a place for a month with no geographical limits. Apart from European civil society's responce and all the NGOs we also didn't miss a chance to ask Olga, who works and lives in Germany for 20 years, what she thinks about German's political hesitations and uncertainty as well as Macron's recent ridiculous statements. And yes, she is also disappointed and outraged, just as we are. Olga is a true pro in her field of activity and a big helper of Ukraine. It was a huge pleasure to talk to her and we're sure it will be an even bigger one for you to listen.
