Ever wondered about the next big investment frontier? Kyivstar just made history with its Nasdaq listing, rolling out a compelling new campaign to invite global capital. This isn’t just about a company; it’s about unlocking immense economic potential. What does this mean for future international partnerships?

In a landmark event for global finance and technological investment, Kyivstar, Ukraine’s leading digital operator, has marked its historic listing on the Nasdaq stock exchange, simultaneously launching the influential “Invest in Ukraine NOW!” campaign in the United States. This significant milestone not only positions Kyivstar prominently on the international stage but also signals a powerful call for foreign capital to contribute to the nation’s economic development and reconstruction efforts.

The listing of Kyivstar on the Nasdaq Stock Market on August 15th represents a pivotal moment, as it becomes the inaugural and sole Ukrainian investment opportunity available on a U.S. stock exchange. To commemorate this unprecedented achievement, Kyivstar is scheduled to ring the iconic Nasdaq opening bell on Friday, August 29th, an event symbolizing new beginnings and heightened visibility for the company and the country it serves.

The week-long series of strategic engagements in New York preceding the bell-ringing ceremony includes a crucial investor conference tailored for current and prospective investors, alongside an “Invest in Ukraine NOW!” Business Symposium. These gatherings are meticulously designed to foster dialogue and collaboration between leading American and Ukrainian businesses, aiming to forge public-private partnerships and attract essential international investments for the country’s future.

Augie K Fabela II, Chairman and Founder of VEON, articulated the profound impact of this event, stating, “Kyivstar’s Nasdaq listing, under the ticker KYIV, offers American investors a unique window into the Ukrainian economy as a whole.” He further expressed enthusiasm for bringing the “Invest in Ukraine NOW!” campaign to the United States, anticipating robust discussions between U.S. and Ukrainian business counterparts to catalyze growth.

Echoing this sentiment, Kaan Terzioglu, VEON Group CEO, and Oleksandr Komarov, President of Kyivstar, highlighted the compelling business case and resilient nature of Kyivstar. They underscored the company’s transformation into a robust digital operator with a globally attractive business model and growth story, emphasizing its foundational role in the nation’s resilience and its ambition to build bridges for other Ukrainian companies to deepen global partnerships, especially with the American and international business communities, fostering greater Ukraine investment.

Kyivstar boasts an impressive market leadership, serving nearly 22.4 million mobile customers and over 1.1 million home internet fixed-line customers, along with 13.4 million digital MAUs as of June 30, 2025. This extensive reach underpins its strong financial performance, with the second quarter of 2025 reporting an operating revenue of USD 284 million, marking a substantial 20.9% year-on-year increase, solidifying its position as a dominant digital operator.

Beyond core connectivity, Kyivstar operates a diverse and expanding portfolio of digital operator services. This includes Helsi, the nation’s largest digital healthcare platform; Kyivstar TV, a leading entertainment and streaming service; and Uklon, the top ride-hailing and delivery platform. The company also provides cloud, cybersecurity, and software development services through Kyivstar Tech and is pioneering satellite connectivity with Starlink, further enhancing its robust service offerings.

The commitment to future growth is evident in the substantial investment pledge from VEON and Kyivstar, totaling USD 1 billion between 2023-2027. This significant Ukraine investment is earmarked for social investments in infrastructure and technological development, charitable donations, and strategic acquisitions, signaling a long-term vision and dedication to fostering economic vitality and innovation within the region, propelled by its historic Nasdaq Listing and strong presence on the US Stock Exchange.
