On November 4, 2025, as part of the WINWIN Summit 2025: The Power of Innovations, a roundtable discussion “Artificial Intelligence in the Digital State of the Future” was held, co-organized by the Global Government Technology Centre in Kyiv and the WINWIN AI Centre of Excellence.

The event brought together key stakeholders from government, business, investors, and international organizations. Representing the GovTech Alliance of Ukraine (GTA UA) were Kateryna Stavniichuk, CEO of the Alliance, and Volodymyr Sichka, CTO of Kitsoft, a GTA UA member company.

The discussion focused on several key topics:

• Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a driver of digital governance — how AI is already being integrated into public services, the role of AI regulations in Ukraine and global practices, ethical challenges, and issues of public trust.
• Effective models of partnership between the state and business, support for local innovative and tech companies, as well as pilot initiatives as growth points.
• AI for resilience – using AI to strengthen state institutions in crisis situations, forecasting, media monitoring, and cyber resilience. 

During the roundtable, Kateryna Stavniichuk emphasized that AI as a tool alone is not enough to ensure meaningful transformation of public governance. Instead, she highlighted the need to implement new models of collaboration between the state and private sector that can help overcome systemic barriers.

“GovTech companies cannot build effective AI solutions without access to structured, machine-readable, high-quality data. We need a model of ‘government APIs as a service’, where the state opens data access interfaces through standardized agreements. In turn, developers can help design these APIs based on real usage scenarios.”

Volodymyr Sichka shared Kitsoft’s practical experience in integrating AI into their product — the Liquio low-code platform, designed for rapid deployment of digital public services:

“An AI assistant helps low-code developers analyze technical specifications and design online service workflows on the platform. It also acts as a co-pilot — providing contextual suggestions and referencing an internal knowledge base.”

At GTA UA, we firmly believe that technological innovation — especially in AI — must be guided by ethical standards, real public and business needs, and open collaboration. This is only possible through strong partnerships, transparent data access, and inclusive developer involvement.

We support initiatives that help build a new trust infrastructure and sustainable digital governance through analytics, expertise, and ongoing dialogue across the GovTech ecosystem.
