Ukraine Tech Night: Official Summit is the flagship event of Ukrainian Tech Night at VivaTech 2026, held on 16 June at 55 Rue La Boetie, in the 8th arrondissement of Paris. It is presented as the central convergence point for the French, European and Ukrainian tech ecosystems. Access is free, capped at 200 participants, and subject to host approval. The initiative is associated with TechUkraine and the Global Ukraine Foundation.
The programme combines high-level remarks from French and Ukrainian dignitaries, a Franco-Ukrainian panel on joint tech scaling, venture funding and market entry, fast-paced pitches from Ukrainian startups, and a closing "Glass Gallery" networking reception with a DJ set and cultural programme. Capacity is strictly limited to 200, with entry contingent on a formal approval email.
The summit runs on 16 June, the eve of VivaTech's business programme, among the national and bilateral gatherings of the week. Its mix of dignitary diplomacy and startup pitching makes it both an institutional and an investment-oriented evening.
It is the flagship side event of Ukrainian Tech Night during the VivaTech week, on 16 June. It is independent of VivaTech ticketing and registered separately.
Capacity is strictly capped at 200 participants, with entry confirmed by a formal approval email.
It is not designed for: the general public, since access is approval-based and capped; attendees with no link to the Ukrainian or Franco-Ukrainian tech ecosystem; those seeking a multi-day conference rather than a single evening summit; and anyone expecting guaranteed entry without prior approval.
