Investments in education and cooperation with NaUKMA

Volodymyr Nosov's active work in education has far-reaching goals. To develop education in the field of blockchain technologies and virtual assets, he started cooperation with the leading educational institution of Ukraine — the National University of “Kyiv-Mohyla Academy” (NaUKMA). This cooperation is aimed at increasing the level of crypto literacy among young people and training qualified personnel for the IT industry in Ukraine.
As part of partnership with NaUKMA, WhiteBIT contributed to the restoration of the university's historic building, where it helped to create a modern educational space for IT professionals. Two classrooms for mixed learning, a multifunctional auditorium for lectures, events, and conferences, as well as a meeting room and a classroom for student projects have been equipped.
In addition to updating the infrastructure, WhiteBIT and NaUKMA agreed to develop new educational programs, including the first in Eastern Europe Master's program “Blockchain Technologies”, whose graduates received tokenized certificates on the Whitechain blockchain. As part of the program, students were trained in cryptography in blockchain technologies, algorithms for distributed cryptocurrency exchange based on smart contracts (DeFi), development of smart contracts and technical tools for regulating cryptocurrencies in the market, which allowed them to gain in-depth knowledge in the current rapidly developing industry.

Cooperation with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine

An outstanding example of cooperation between business and the state is Volodymyr Nosov's partnership with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, which started with the beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine and is aimed at helping Ukrainians who were forced to leave their homes and took refuge abroad.
A 24/7 chatbot and a consulting call center were launched and are already handling requests from Ukrainians in 96 countries.
Another initiative is an inclusive project for Ukrainians with hearing impairments, which enables more than 50 Ukrainian consulates and embassies in Europe to provide real-time sign language consultations. These efforts emphasize the importance of business social responsibility in difficult times and Nosov's commitment to making a positive contribution to supporting Ukrainians abroad.

Support for cultural projects

Volodymyr Nosov actively supports important cultural projects in Ukraine, in particular through his cooperation with the “don't Take Fake” team. The funds raised from these initiatives were donated to restore art institutions, monuments, and museums in Ukraine that were damaged during the war. Among the projects:
  • “Module of Temporality (MOT). This is a temporary cultural space in Kyiv created by an international team of over 100 people. The project aimed to capture the flowability of life and support the desire to live, create, and fight even during the war. The main event was an exhibition of contemporary art featuring 28 artists from 10 countries.
  • “Spectral Poetry”. An art project by the Spanish artist Pablo Valbuena, which aims to give voices to the closed monuments in the capital of Ukraine, Kyiv. Three Kyiv monuments closed by protective structures came to life in a light show and poems by Ukrainian poets. The project reminded us of the importance of preserving history and culture, highlighting how art endures even in times of war.
