Imagining a Digital Economy for All in Ukraine
As the Ukrainian conflict continues, the country’s third largest sector, tech and IT, continues to persist despite the devastation. Bhaskar Chakravorti talks to leaders and stakeholders in the Ukrainian tech industry, and their cross-border clients as a part of a running case study to understand how their work is being affected, and what we can do to support them as the war progresses.
ANALYST OF THE MONTH

Komal Rathod
Graduate Research Analyst,
Digital Planet
I'VE BEEN WORKING ON
Understanding the role of technology in education, especially with bridging the gap between talent and opportunity across the world.
AN INSIGHT I DISCOVERED
There is a lot of asymmetry with respect to talent and opportunity in the technology sector. Markets don't always have the ability to absorb the skills and capacities that exist within it, while employers demanding a specific set of skills have difficulty finding the right talent.
I'M PASSIONATE ABOUT
Ensuring that programs aimed to maximize social impact are informed, designed, and implemented based on rigorous evidence and research.
Impactful research requires resources.
