SoftServe has joined Odesa IT Family — a community that unites IT companies, educational institutions, and civic initiatives to foster the technological potential of southern Ukraine. The announcement was made during the anniversary IT Wave conference, which gathered over 200 representatives from business, education, and government. The event served as an important platform for discussing the future of the IT ecosystem in southern Ukraine and the role of strategic partnerships in its growth.

“For SoftServe is about actions, not words. We believe the IT industry can grow only when we join forces, and that’s why we’re excited to officially become part of the Odesa IT Family. We’ve already been involved in the community — sharing our expertise, supporting young talent, and contributing to initiatives that shape a strong tech ecosystem. This partnership is a natural next step that will help boost the technological potential of southern Ukraine” said Olena Korsun, Regional Director of the South-Eastern Region at SoftServe Ukraine.

The partnership between SoftServe and Odesa IT Family is a strategic step aimed at strengthening the region’s innovation potential, creating new opportunities for the IT sector, and supporting the growth of educational initiatives.

“SoftServe invests significant resources and effort into developing education in Ukraine — and that’s truly inspiring. More than 50% of Odesa IT Family’s projects focus specifically on education. Together, we have already implemented a national hackathon and several events to nurture young talent. There is great power in this synergy. I’m confident that together we can achieve even more for the development of IT talent in southern Ukraine,” commented Kateryna Solovei, CEO of Odesa IT Family.

SoftServe’s participation in Odesa IT Family marks a strategic move toward a future where Ukrainian technologies and talents drive global transformation. The company continues to invest in education, strengthen regional technological potential, and create platforms that unite business, government, and communities.

This partnership is a natural continuation of SoftServe’s mission — to shape an innovative Ukraine where technology becomes a driving force for sustainable development.
