Belarusian lawyer moves to Kyiv to build an analogue of the Park of High Technologies

Senior partner of the law firm ‘Aleynikov and Partners’, Denis Aleynikov, moved to Kyiv to create an analogue of the Park of High Technologies (PHT). He wrote about it on his Facebook page.

According to him, he has become an adviser to the deputy prime minister and Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, Mykhailo Fedorov.

“We will create Diia City — a global technology hub in Ukraine — for the creative class from around the world. There are many laws to be drafted that will realise the boldest ambitions of visionaries and guarantee their protection from interference by the authorities and law enforcement. Today we gave the first press conference,” wrote Aleynikov.

He noted that he is proud of Belarus’s PHT. At the same time, the new project in Ukraine is “not instead of the PHT, but together.”

Aleynikov added that he plans to live “in two cities” and practice law in Minsk and Kyiv.

Deputy Prime Minister Mykhailo Fedorov confirmed that Aleynikov is now his new adviser.
