Ukraine's Ministry of Digital Transformation is forging ahead with the establishment of a regulatory sandbox, tailored for innovative tech projects.
Ukraine's sandbox aims to involve companies operating in unregulated spheres, offering a "safe haven" for projects navigating an evolving regulatory landscape.

This innovative tool presents a multitude of advantages for companies. The Ministry of Digital Transformation emphasizes that entrepreneurs can swiftly test their products through the regulatory sandbox. The insights gained serve to fine-tune the project's business model. Additionally, the sandbox establishes a direct dialogue with the state, offering clarity on regulatory standards for innovative services across different domains. After refinement within the sandbox, these projects can confidently enter the market. Furthermore, projects that have successfully navigated the regulatory sandbox are poised to attract investment more effortlessly.

The Ministry is open to gathering feedback on the concept of introducing this type of sandbox. 
We are actively seeking input from representatives of Ukrainian high-tech projects on this initiative. Our main goal is to shape a regulatory sandbox that aligns seamlessly with the requirements of Ukrainian innovative businesses,
the Ministry told GN Crypto.
Calling all innovators in the entrepreneurial sphere! Your insights are priceless. Join the survey by following the provided link!

In the EU, a blockchain regulatory sandbox is already operational today. This initiative by the European Commission lays the foundation for a regulatory dialogue between businesses and legislators, offering greater legal clarity to innovative blockchain companies. However, as per the Ministry of Digital Transformation's survey, Ukraine plans to broaden the sandbox's scope. This expansion aims to encompass areas like AI, Web3 projects in VR (Virtual Reality) and AR (Augmented Reality), cryptographic protection, post-quantum cryptography, and more.

In February 2023, GN Crypto and the Ministry of Digital Transformation entered into a Memorandum of Understanding. This collaboration empowers our media outlet to consistently share news and educational content developed in partnership with the Ministry's representatives. Our goal is to significantly enhance crypto literacy among the Ukrainian population.

Previously, we have extensively interviewed Deputy Minister Alex Bornyakov, delving into the education processes on the "Diia.Digital Education" portal and exploring who is eligible to benefit from these courses.
