Brave1 cluster to remain under Ministry of Digital Transformation's management – minister
The Brave1 defense technology cluster, which was established in 2023, will remain under the management of the Ministry of Digital Transformation, and the relevant documents have already been properly processed, Minister Oksana Ferchuk said in an interview with Forbes Ukraine.
The Brave1 defense technology cluster, founded in 2023, will continue to be managed by the Ministry of Digital Transformation, according to Minister Oksana Ferchuk in an interview with Forbes Ukraine. Ferchuk confirmed that the necessary paperwork has been completed. Brave1 remains under the Ministry's oversight, she stated. Former Acting Minister of Digital Transformation Oleksandr Borniakov was named head of the Brave1 Supervisory Board last week, and Ferchuk noted that Borniakov continues to serve as her special advisor.
However, PlayCity, the State Agency for the Control of the Gambling and Lottery Business, does not fall under the Ministry's authority, despite previously being moved to the Cabinet of Ministers. Ferchuk explained that the agency is not influenced by the Ministry, but works in coordination with its head. She expressed concern over the competition for the PlayCity head position, suggesting that the current head should remain in office if they are performing their duties well.
Ferchuk emphasized her approach to working with all parties based on trust and openness, aiming for constructive collaboration to achieve effective results.
