Checking in on Ukraine’s media market four years into the all-out war

This winter has been one of the hardest for Ukraine, with Russian attacks on civilian infrastructure knocking out electricity and heating for millions of Ukrainians – and affecting publishers. At the same time, Ukraine’s media market is a space for exciting innovations in revenue models and investment in social platforms like YouTube.

As February 24th marked the fourth anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion, we check in on Ukraine’s media market. The Fix’s senior editor Anton Protsiuk is joined by Daria Trapeznikova, author of media newsletter Rivni Media and editor at Forbes Ukraine. They discuss high-level trends on the Ukrainian media market, the impact of the war on publishers and audiences, the role of Telegram and YouTube, and more.

Plus, Anton speaks with The Fix Foundation’s Miraslau Chyhir about the support the foundation, The Fix Media’s sister organisation, provides to Ukrainian media.
