Canada-Ukraine Trade and Investment Support project (CUTIS) is a 5-year project sponsored by the Gov't of Canada - Global Affairs to increase Canada-Ukraine trade and investment. The project is being implemented by the Canada-Ukraine Chamber of Commerce (CUCC) and the Conference Board of Canada. I was responsible for the CUCC CUTIS project teams in Canada (4), Ukraine (3) and budgets. Proud to say that we achieved the annual project outputs for achieving outcomes i.e. increased export trade from Ukraine to Canada. Our team worked hard to successfully organize trade missions from Ukraine to Canada in 5 priority business sectors. We promoted the Canada-Ukraine Free Trade Agreement across Canada and Ukraine as well as hosted 2 business forums in Canada which included the PM Canada and PM Ukraine. http://export.cutisproject.org Great experience, great team.
