The number of IT specialists in Lviv tripled from 30 to almost 100 thousand – S. Veselovskiy

The number of IT specialists in western regions of Ukraine has tripled. 20,000 IT specialists are currently working in Transcarpathia, compared to one thousand. In Lviv, the number of IT specialists could grow from the pre-war 30,000 up to 100,000. Stepan Veselovskiy, CEO of Lviv IT Cluster, told this during a briefing at Ukraine Media Center.

According to him, most Ukrainian IT market players have not only successfully relocated their companies from the oblasts where hostilities take place to the western regions, but also managed to restore their pre-war productivity almost completely. There is even a growing number of new contracts that companies enter into despite all the difficulties. Temporary new hubs have opened in the West due to the relocation.
