Nearly hundred national, regional and industry associations and communities have joined the signing of the Memorandum.
“CUCC is honored to be the first international organization to join such a powerful and important alliance of Ukrainian businesses, associations and real business leaders. The Joint Memorandum is only the first step on the way of creating new transparent rules of the game, creating reliable institutions and strengthening the role of reputable business in the reconstruction of Ukraine. We believe now is the time to come together and act for real change!” – Yuriy Kryvosheya, Board Member at CUCC and member of CEO Club Ukraine.
