Join SPUR and the Center for Innovation for an intimate conversation about rebuilding in Ukraine. An estimated 1.4 million Ukrainian homes have been damaged or destroyed since Russia invaded Ukraine in February, 2022. The Center for Innovation has invited a dozen Ukrainian leaders to the Bay Area to learn advanced means and methods of design and construction in preparation for peacetime reconstruction. In this presentation, members of parliament, architects and a university leader will share their stories and seek advice from the Bay Area community about how to rebuild a resilient and democratic future.

A networking mixer will follow the program, with a catered lunch provided by Leleka Ukrainian Restaurant.

  • Margie O’Driscoll / Director, Center for Innovation
  • Anna Kyrii / Founder & Owner, Architectural Project Group
  • Andrii Lakshtanov / Marketing Director, Hilti Ukraine & Dobrobat leader
