More Than an Event: Community Building in Uncertain Times — The ACE Kyiv Story

Through lessons from ACE Kyiv and our experience participating in partner and community events, we’ll share what makes an event meaningful beyond attendance numbers, how to keep people engaged, and how to create a genuine sense of connection and belonging.

We’ll also talk about how community building can continue even in difficult circumstances, drawing on ACE Kyiv’s experience of bringing people together during extremely challenging times. We’ll share practical approaches and lessons that other Champions can apply to their own communities.

SPEAKERS:
Khrystyna Shparyk (Senior Channel Business Development Manager, GitProtect)
Margo Sakova (Head of Marketing, Oboard)
Elmira Niftullaieva (CEO, Softgile Ukraine)
