Technology, Media and Telecoms

Services for Technology, Media & Telecommunications (TMT)

The Technology, Media & Telecommunications sector is one of the most dynamic clusters driving Ukraine’s digital economy. It includes IT product companies, outsourcing businesses, digital service platforms, telecom infrastructure operators, and content creators.

The sector plays a pivotal role in:

  • Accelerating digital transformation
  • Attracting foreign investment, talent, and partnerships
  • Creating new business models and cross-border ventures

A key legal driver of industry growth is the Diia City regime, which provides:

  • Preferential taxation (5% PIT, reduced SSC, no corporate tax on retained earnings)
  • Flexible employment models (e.g., gig contracts)
  • Simplified corporate governance
  • Enhanced intellectual property (IP) protection

However, operating under Diia City or within the broader TMT space presents complex regulatory obligations:

  • Transparent financial reporting and compliance with Diia City residency criteria
  • Structured IP management and tax optimization of cross-border revenues
  • Oversight from the Ministry of Digital Transformation, State Tax Service, and anti-corruption bodies
  • Investor scrutiny of ESG, data governance, and international compliance

Parker Russell UA, a member of the global Parker Russell International network, delivers end-to-end audit, tax, legal, and advisory support for technology companies, digital media groups, telecommunications providers, and innovative startups. We accompany our clients from launch to international scaling, helping them align with investor expectations, legal frameworks, and compliance regimes in a fast-changing global market.
