Looking for in YBC:
I am looking for experience building startup studios. · At one point, Vadym Hrusha introduced me to Andrii Ostapchuk, the founder of Young Business Club. I remember meeting on Zoom just before a trip, and I decided to travel with them to Qatar. The trip inspired me. In Qatar, I saw how startup studios operate. I was intrigued by this model, where a company builds several businesses at the same time. That’s when I realized which direction I wanted to take.

Looking for in YBC:
I come to YBC for a circle of like-minded people and an environment where I can be the least experienced person and grow faster as a result. Socializing in Warsaw is also important to me, since I have hardly any established circle there outside the club. Additionally, I am looking for: 1) trusted contacts to help solve business challenges; 2) potential partnerships; 3) the ability to quickly find the right people in a high-trust environment.

When I first arrived in Kyiv without any clear plans, the YBC team literally sat me down at a table with ten entrepreneurs—and did the same every week. This is a place full of incredible people with real stories of both major wins and painful setbacks they weathered and grew from.

Looking for in YBC:
I see YBC not as a place for self-promotion, but as a platform for quickly exchanging experience and practical solutions. For me, the club is three things: quality connections, focused insights, and a place to test business hypotheses. Here, I am not just a listener—I bring my own cases to get constructive criticism and new approaches that I can implement as soon as next week. When decisions about scaling or entering a new market are at stake, a quick assessment from peers in adjacent industries can save me from mistakes that would otherwise take months to learn from. Two-way exchange matters to me: I share what works and, in return, get ideas that save time and money. It is a win for everyone—for me and for the other club members. So I will emphasize once again: your circle matters when you know your goals and confidently work toward them.

As a co-owner of the club, I see it not simply as a business community, but as an environment for shaping a new level of entrepreneur. The club’s mission is to help small businesses become big. To me, this means a strong circle of people that influences how we think, how quickly we make decisions, and the scale of our vision. It is in this kind of environment that new ideas, partnerships, and opportunities for growth emerge. At the same time, it is important to me that the club remain not just a place for networking, but a place where a systematic approach to business takes shape. Where entrepreneurs move from chaotic decisions to building companies with structure, processes, and a long-term strategy. And, separately, this is about impact. The club is an environment that can shape an entrepreneurial culture and influence the country’s economic development through strong entrepreneurs.
