By Ukraine Digital News / February 20, 2023

Recently Sifted, a major tech news outlet in Europe, met the founders of “some of the continent’s most resilient startups.”

These Ukrainians are the heroes of a special podcast that appeared last week on the Sifted website. The program shows how these entrepreneurs, their teams and investors, sometimes “trapped in basements with Russian troops on the streets,” have battled “to keep these businesses alive amid bombs, blackouts and evacuations.”
