Copying Kyiv’s UNIT.City, the UFuture Investment Group plans to open similar IT hubs in Lviv and Kharkiv this year and in Kazakhstan next year. By December, Lviv Tech.City is to open with 9,500 square meters of office space and 3,000 square meters of commercial, largely cafes and restaurants, Vasyl Khmelnytsky, founder of UFuture, tells Interfax-Ukraine. Tenants have signed up lease space in the building, on a former factory site in Lviv’s southern Frankivskyi district. In Kharkiv, the first phase of the Kharkiv Innovations Campus is to open this year in 3,000 square meters of a larger, modern building. Separately, Khmelnytsky, who was born in Kazakhstan, wrote on Facebook after a visit to the new capital last summer: “We’ve agreed we will help create an analog of UNIT.City in the center of Astana.”
