Electronica 24: Conflict to Creativity in Ukraine with IKT's Yevhen Horniuk

Philip Spagnoli Stoten

Join me for an inspiring conversation with Yevhen Horniuk from IKT Electronics, an EMS company demonstrating remarkable resilience amidst adversity. As the world focuses on the conflict in Ukraine, Yevgen takes us behind the scenes of navigating significant supply chain disruptions and the human impact of team members stepping away for military service or fleeing the country. Hear firsthand how IKT Electronics has adapted to these challenges, restructured their supply chain, and maintained crucial operations to continue serving both Ukrainian and international markets. Yevhen's tenacity, positivity, and strategic foresight shine through as he discusses the company's journey and future ambitions.

Yevhen doesn't  dwell on the hardships; he shares a vision of hope and growth that extends beyond current conflicts. Discover the company's bold move to open a new factory in Bulgaria, a strategic step to ensure service continuity and expand their European footprint. Yevhen's optimism is infectious as he reflects on the need for decisive political action and his belief in triumph on multiple fronts—not just militarily but economically and socially. This episode is a testament to the strength and persistence of people and businesses committed to thriving even in the toughest of times.
