At a time when millions of Ukrainians are abroad, forced to build their lives in new places, while others live under shelling and strive to stop a ruthless enemy, the team of the Kyiv International Economic Forum dared to hold the first intellectual meetings dedicated to war, peace, and the future of Ukraine in a new reality.

“Architecture of the New World: Society, Education, Culture, Business” — under this title, KIEF launched a series of charitable intellectual meetings devoted to Ukraine. The first discussion took place in Barcelona, Spain, on June 23, 2022, with the support of the “Intellectual Capital” Charitable Foundation.

The aim of the creative evening was to foster the spiritual, cultural, and intellectual development of Ukraine. Participants included: Oleksandr Rodnyansky (Ukrainian film director, producer, founder of the “1+1” TV channel), Zhanna Kryuchkova (founder of the almanac “Huxley” in support of philosophy, art, and science), among others.

Today, the whole world is experiencing an era of radical change. One thing remains constant: every day leaders make countless decisions and face challenges they never imagined before. What worked yesterday may change in an instant. The pace is immediate, the stakes are high, yet those who can lead their teams to consistently achieve outstanding results are greatly rewarded. During the panel, together with large business owners and world-class artists, discussions focused on how important it is for leaders to stay in trend, keep track of global events, and transform themselves and their businesses.
