For comparison - 5 years ago this figure was just over 14%. We are moving in the right direction, but we still need support. After all, it is important that as many women as possible learn about such programs".

ConcordBank has been supporting startups and IT companies for several years already. “ConcordBank is a whole Fintech ecosystem with its own processing and IT team. For 3 years in a row we were the main partners of the ITEM conference and held a teleconference with Google and Facebook employees last fall. This time we decided to support the initiative of the Ukrainian Hub and allocated a travel grant for the winners of the Fintech industry, "says Elena Sosedka, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of ConcordBank.

Recall that ConcordBank became the first non-state bank in Ukraine to launch Concord Pay Internet acquiring with options from Apple Pay and Google Pay. This allowed the leaders of the Ukrainian online business to increase the conversion of their trading platforms. ConcordBank was the first in Europe to connect to 3ds v2.1 by issuing Mastercard, which confirms the high degree of payment security. ConcordBank was included in the top 10 most successful banks in Ukraine in the categories "Internet banking" and "Mobile banking" at the FINANCIAL CLUB AWARDS 2019.
