Taras Dumych commented on the transaction: “It was a pleasure to work on this transaction and help our client rent24 make their entry and investments in Ukraine. This transaction is a great combination of international expertise and reputation of rent24 and local expertise and reputation of Chasopys and its founders. We are even more excited that the transaction in Ukraine will serve a basis for further expansion of the business into other CEE countries.”
