A discussion series with leading thinkers focused on issues at the intersection of business, politics, and culture. Whether it be trends in corporate deal-making, shifts in geopolitics, or notable new writing, our aim is to focus on the ideas and themes that drive headlines, inform boardroom conversations, and motivate policymakers.
For this episode of the podcast we go back to Ukraine. Our guest today sets a new standard for what a highly intelligent, motivated, and deeply patriotic young person can do. Although only 25-years old, Maryna Hrytsenko has established herself as one of the leading advocates for Ukraine and its military in the global halls of power. She is a co-founder of the Snake Island Institute (SII), which in the matter of less than two years has become Ukraine’s leading security-focused think tank and also plays a hands-on role in linking Western defense manufacturers with Ukrainian military units and local Ukrainian defense technology companies. Equally at home in the halls of the US Congress or working alongside Ukraine’s men and women in uniform, Maryna is a force of nature in the very best sense of the phrase and we’re very lucky to have her on the podcast to tell her story.
