Since 16 July 2026, she has served as Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine.
Ukraine has already built a strong digital foundation in public services. The next stage is broader adoption of artificial intelligence, automation, and robotics not only in government, but also in business.
This requires adapting legislation to new technologies, defining the boundaries of their use and the rules governing liability and security, and aligning Ukrainian regulation with European regulation.
What changes are needed so that new technologies accelerate development rather than regulation becoming a barrier? We will discuss this at KIEF 2026 during the panel discussion "Ukraine's Digital Acceleration: Challenges, Obstacles, Opportunities".
