My academic interests encompass a comprehensive analysis of the legal framework for venture capital (VC) in the UK, USA, and Ukraine. I focus on identifying optimal legal solutions for VC investments, drawing valuable insights from international experiences, and applying them effectively to enhance processes within Ukraine.
