This news is truly energizing. While the world talks about the future of education, Ukraine is already creating it—confidently, boldly, and in the face of every challenge.
From January 21 to 23, 2026, Ukrainian EdTech companies made a powerful statement at BETT UK 2026 in London—one of the world’s largest exhibitions for educational technology. For the second consecutive year, the IT Ukraine Association brought Ukrainian developers together at a joint stand to show the world that our approach to education is defined by innovation, digital transformation, and the development of the competencies needed for the future.

INTBOARD showcased interactive equipment that transforms lessons into dynamic, live interactions, fostering a genuine digital educational environment.

Lionwood.software presented the NIT platform—a modern tool for managing the educational process that enables personalized learning and effective educational analytics.

STEM Class, a manufacturer based in Zhytomyr, drew particular attention from the international community. The company creates equipment for STEM laboratories, where physics ceases to be just a collection of formulas in a notebook and instead becomes a realm of experiments, research, and real-world engineering. Their stand became a hub for educators, educational administrators, and policymakers from the UK, France, Azerbaijan, Egypt, Kazakhstan, and beyond. More than 37,000 exhibition attendees discussed the future of education. Key trends included the integration of artificial intelligence into learning, the development of STEM competencies through robotics, and the creation of technologies to support the mental health of students and educators.

Ukrainian educational solutions today are about more than just technology. They represent a belief in children, in science, and in the country’s development. They demonstrate that, even in the most challenging times, we continue to invest in what is most valuable: knowledge and the future.
