UKRAINE'S INTEGRATION INTO THE EUROPEAN INTERNET MARKET: OPPORTUNITIES, CHALLENGES AND GROWTH PROSPECTS

Summary/Abstract: This study investigates Ukraine's incorporation into the European Internet market, evaluating the opportunities, constraints, and development potential for Ukrainian Internet service providers (ISPs). The study used a hybrid methodology approach, integrating quantitative economic data analysis with qualitative interviews with industry stakeholders, to identify the competitive advantages of Ukrainian ISPs. These encompass cost efficiency, technical adaptability, and inventive solutions formulated during the crisis. Barriers to strategy implementation include regulatory disparities, infrastructural destruction due to the conflict, and rivalry from established European firms. Simultaneously, Ukrainian ISPs exhibit considerable potential for market penetration through strategic alliances and focused specialty strategies. Compliance with EU telecommunications standards is essential for effective integration of markets and sustainable growth in the European digital economy.
