The Factor Group of Companies became an official partner of the Second International Business Forum

The Factor Group of Companies became an official partner of the Second International Business Forum “Ukraine – 2015. The Strategic Vision: Opportunities and Challenges”, which was held on March 20 in Kharkiv. The event attracted more than 200 representatives of business circles of Ukraine, as well as Europe and the United States. Forum participants shared their experiences, discussed the problems of modern Ukrainian business and the possible solutions.

The president of the Factor Group Sergei Polituchy was one of the speakers of the round table named “Opportunities”. During the discussion Sergei noted that the serious obstacles to the successful entry of Ukraine into the European space are “mental barriers” – the borders existing not in reality, but in our heads, and the belief left for us from the Soviet past that our welfare is required someone to care of it – the state, the government, the international community. He recalled that in Europe no one Ukrainian businessman will receive a discount, there people are waiting for Ukraine as an equal partner, and only we responsible for our competitiveness.

Olga Shapoval, the General Director of the printing house “Factor-Druk”, which is a part of the Factor Group, shared her experience of entering the European market with the participants of the business forum. The printing house started to cooperate with European customers a few years ago, and over the past year, the company has entered the European market with confidence. According to Olga Shapoval, the compliance with international quality standards and a flexible pricing, the transparency and corporate social responsibility helped the printing house “Factor-Druk” to gain gradually the trust of foreign partners and enter the European printing market.

In addition, the participants of the business forum could familiarize themselves with the new direction of the Factor Group’s activity – with an educational project «Factor Academy».
The guests of the stand were asked to “taste the apple of knowledge” and learn more about the «Factor Academy».
