Ivan Pasichnyk, 28, Ukrainian, is now on Forbes magazine’s list – “30 Under 30” – of the world’s most successful and talented people. The manager and cofounder of the project Ecois.me is in the category “Production and Industry.”
Ivan PASICHNYK, manager and cofounder of the project Ecois.me:
“It is my first ever rating. Last autumn I was reached by a Forbes journalist who was in charge of the nomination’s technological part. He said I had been put on this nomination’s long list and he needed more information. So, we corresponded from time to time, and I was telling him about the project’s successes. Then it became known on Tuesday that I had also been selected.
“The fact that I have found myself on the rating list will hardly have a drastic effect on the advance of our project, for investors make decisions, taking into account very many factors. But this will undoubtedly facilitate our first contacts with them. It is like the CES award which we received recently. It is one thing when write to somebody that you have a startup. But when you write and say that your project has been voted the best in the CES ‘smart home’ category, the reaction to this is entirely different.”
