Ukrainian startups chosen for Web Summit in Dublin

By The Kyiv Post / September 4, 2014

To stand out among a crowd of budding technology companies, three Ukrainian companies first had to loom above a field of one in five applicants. Three did. Hopeful startups, Izzly, Publicfast, and Settle had their exhibition fees waived to attend a conference in Dublin on Nov. 4-6 where 20,000 entrepreneurs, journalists, and venture fund managers meet and greet, and sometimes make deals.

It’s the busy autumn conference season, when tech companies with brilliant ideas search for investors who believe in their mostly untested products at such events as TechChrunch’s Disrupt Europe in London and Webit in Istanbul.
