Summary: | The article analyzes the evolutionary development and implementation of the digital
transformation policy on the way to building the digital economy of Ukraine. The need to
carry out reforms, improve the investment climate, and economic recovery prompted the state
to develop a legal basis for future digital transformations in the development of the national
ecosystem. Along with this, the above-mentioned steps contribute to the further integration of
Ukraine into the EU. Using advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence, blockchain,
analysis of large data sets, and others, digitalization becomes a key driver in the creation of
innovative products and services, which in turn increases the competitiveness and efficiency of the socio-economic model of the state as a whole. But with the beginning of a full-scale military
invasion of the russian federation into Ukraine, the state is forced to look for non-standard
solutions for the continuation of the digital transformation policy. Currently, the question
arises of the need to conduct an in-depth analysis of the key elements of the ecosystem of IT
startups and determine the role of the state in the use of relevant tools and reforms on the path
of further effective digital transformation in all sectors of the economic complex.
In the course of the research, it has been found that the scientific and technological
potential in Ukraine continues to decline in the period after the signing of the Ukraine-EU
Association Agreement. At the same time, the issue of innovative development of Ukraine has
been in the center of attention of the government, a number of donor structures, and the expertscientific environment of Ukraine for the past several years. The Government of Ukraine has
launched a number of initiatives aimed at creating opportunities for the development of the
domestic ecosystem of innovations, information and communication technologies (ICT) and
startups, among which such promising and ambitious projects as: “E-residency” (creating
conditions for non-residents to conduct business in Ukraine without a physical presence on
its territory), “Diia.City” (a unique legal and tax space for IT business in Ukraine, which
aims to give companies and startups effective tools for intensive development, scaling and
capitalization), an online platform of the current status of the Ukrainian IT ecosystem (will
provide an opportunity to search for business information about IT companies, professionals,
investors and, in general, the entire technological ecosystem of Ukraine), development of the
Concept of the Development of Artificial Intelligence in Ukraine (covers 9 fields: education
and science, economy, cyber security, information security, defense, public administration,
legal regulation, justice) and others.
According to the results of the study, it becomes clear that in the era of rapid technological
progress, the development of digital technologies has transformed the way of doing business,
making it more dynamic and global. Management of digital ecosystems requires the state
to develop adequate legal and regulatory frameworks. Intensive cooperation and financial
support, even under martial law, will allow Ukraine to actively develop infrastructure, promote
digital transformation, strengthen technological potential, sustainable economic recovery and
deepen integration into the European digital market. Currently, there is no doubt about the
need to strengthen efforts to implement current and prospective programs of digital reform of
the ecosystem of Ukraine.
