IoT platform Uniot walked off YEP Accelerator’s demo day with a $25k non-equity cheque 💪 We were there too. Our investment analyst Michael Perevoznyk sat on the jury alongside Oleksandr Yatsenko 🇺🇦 (SMOK Ventures), Maksym Strukov (Geek Ventures), Ihor Markevych🇺🇦 (IT Arena), Artem Volkhonskyi (ZAS Ventures), and the Plug and Play Tech Center team, Alexis Massonnet and Federico Gandini. We’ve known YEP for years. Since 2016, the accelerator has coached over 500 Ukrainian early-stage teams, and its alumni have raised more than $2M in grants and investment. Initiatives like theirs power the local startup ecosystem and help keep the focus clear: Backing Ukrainian founders with capital, intros, and mentoring is the priority now. Ukraine-Moldova American Enterprise Fund, u.ventures, Ukrainian Startup Fund, Cisco, Genesis Tech, LIFT99 Kyiv Hub, Slush, IT Arena, Plug and Play Tech Center — this would have been impossible without you 👏 #startups #tech #accelerator #Ukraine

There’s no universal rule, but we can help you decide 🍏 Let’s start by explaining what HRs can do. It’s important. HRs typically manage everything people-related, like onboarding, performance reviews, and vacations. Sometimes they help with the business vision. At struggling companies, they put out fires: resolve conflicts, prevent burnout, and reduce turnover. Most startups hire an HR specialist once the team grows beyond 30 people. Until then, founders and team leads usually handle HR tasks. But that’s not a strict rule — so we’ve put together six yellow flags. If two or three of them hit home, it might be time to bring in some HR help 👇🏾 #HR #people #humanresources #startups

In 2017, Stakh Vozniak was texting truckers about apple loads 🍏 Today, his AI agents close cargo deals with zero humans involved.
