One of the project’s major milestones was the consolidated UKRAINE: RAILWAY SUPPLY stand at InnoTrans 2018 in Berlin. It was the first time in more than 20 years of InnoTrans that Ukrainian manufacturers were represented at the exhibition through a joint national stand. The project brought together 15 Ukrainian manufacturers and attracted more than 800 industry professionals and business representatives from 25 countries.
