Odesa IT Family at the Smart City Expo World Congress in Barcelona!

We’re glad to share that our CEO, Kateryna Solovei, is representing our organization at the prestigious Smart City Expo World Congress in Barcelona! 🇪🇸

This event is one of the world’s leading platforms for discussing urban innovation, smart city technologies, and sustainable digital development.

Together with colleagues from Kharkiv IT Cluster, IT Dnipro Community, Transilvania IT Cluster, and The Digital Cluster of Catalonia, we continue to strengthen international cooperation within the IT Bridge project, building connections between Ukrainian IT clusters and European technological ecosystems.

Why it matters:

Kateryna and her colleagues are representing not only their regions but the entire Ukrainian IT community on the global stage.

Participation in Smart City Expo opens opportunities for over 25,000 visitors, 1,100+ exhibitors, and hundreds of potential partnerships and investments.

Being part of such a global context helps our organization attract new business connections, exchange experience with industry leaders, and act as a catalyst for innovative growth in Odesa and the region.

What’s next:

Over the next few days, Kateryna will meet with strategic partners, explore European smart city transformation cases, and return with specific ideas and insights for our community.

Thank you to everyone who supports our journey — stay tuned, there’s more to come!
