According to the report, memorandums of understanding were signed between the State Property Fund of Ukraine and Mubadala Investment Company.

"At all international meetings, I call for investment in Ukraine. Our state has a huge potential: geopolitical position, natural resources, educated people. Now is the time to realize this potential and create a strong economy," Zelensky said.
He stressed that attracting investments is the key to Ukraine's economic growth. Therefore, the signing of a memorandum with the state-owned Mubadala Investment Company on the intention to invest in Ukraine is an extremely important step in paving the way for large-scale investment in Ukraine from Western Asia, Zelensky said.
The Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine signed a memorandum with INTELMAX Management Consulting on cooperation in creating a platform for the exchange of intellectual property based on the Fantom blockchain platform, which will provide increased security and transparency. It is also planned to introduce blockchain technologies in government processes and services.
