Published

on

Exploring Ukraine’s historic contributions to technology and innovation, the book is one of MacPaw’s initiatives to support relief efforts in Ukraine

BOSTON, Feb. 26, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Innovation in Isolation: The Story of Ukrainian IT from the 1940s to the Present, a book tracing Ukraine’s remarkable contributions to computer science, will be released internationally on March 4, 2025. Commissioned by MacPaw, a global software developer in Ukraine, the book’s international release coincides with the third year of Russia’s unjust invasion of Ukraine on February 24.

 

 

Since its initial release in Ukraine in May 2024, Innovation in Isolation has sold over 1,000 copies, with presentations held in both Kyiv, Ukraine, and Cambridge, MA. The book has already gained international recognition, with The New York Times describing it as capturing “the against-all-odds tale” of Ukraine’s technological breakthroughs. Starting March 4, the book will be available for purchase on Amazon. 100% of proceeds raised from the book are directed to MacPaw Foundation, MacPaw’s charity arm providing critical aid and humanitarian relief to Ukrainians.

“The release of Innovation in Isolation celebrates Ukraine’s ability to overcome any challenge, proving we remain creative and more innovative than many could imagine,” said Oleksandr Kosovan, CEO and Founder of MacPaw. “While russia tries to steal and rewrite our history, it’s essential to prevent this from happening and preserve the true story behind the resilience and courage that define Ukraine and Ukrainians. Despite attacks on our cities, Ukrainians stand strong, and Innovation in Isolation is a testament to that unwavering spirit.”

Following its release, Innovation in Isolation will be highlighted once more at SXSW 2025. The book will be featured in a session titled Navigating the Cyber Battlefield: Leadership and Security, where MacPaw CEO and Founder Oleksandr Kosovan will provide insights on leadership during the war in Ukraine and guidance on fortifying cybersecurity. Oleksandr will discuss the resilience of Ukraine’s tech industry, from innovation under harsh constraints to its perseverance today.

Since 2022, MacPaw Foundation has spearheaded over $12 million for projects supporting Ukraine. Notable projects include MacPaw Foundation’s 2024 collaboration with SavED Foundation, a transformative initiative to restore access to education for children in war-affected areas of Ukraine. The project was awarded the UN Global Compact Partnership for Sustainability Award in 2024, recognizing MacPaw’s commitment to empowering future generations of Ukrainian students and strengthening long-term recovery efforts in Ukraine.

New offering gives developers, students, and customers access to the full power of Workato’s enterprise-grade engine to build AI agents and MCP servers

SINGAPORE, Oct. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Workato®, the leading Control and Execution Platform for Enterprise AI, today announced the launch of a new self-service offering that gives customers, developers, and students across Asia access to the Workato platform to govern and scale their AI initiatives, including building and productionizing AI agents and MCP servers.

Making AI accessible has been at the heart of Workato’s mission the past several years. Through the AI Institute Alliance, unveiled in September 2025, Workato partnered with leading institutes of higher learning across Singapore, including Nanyang Polytechnic, Republic Polytechnic, Temasek Polytechnic, Singapore Polytechnic, Ngee Ann Polytechnic, the Singapore University of Social Sciences, and the National University of Singapore. The initiative equipped students and educators with automation and AI skills.

The AI Lab, which opened a year later, extended that commitment further into the public sector through its partnership with EDB, and into inclusive hiring through SG Enable.

The newly launched self-serve platform will provide users access to:

A free account to start building immediately, with the option to upgrade to a paid plan, no contract required, as projects growThe ability to build recipes, Agents/Genies, and MCP servers directly on the platformThe same governed, enterprise-grade engine that powers Workato’s largest deploymentsA path built for independent developers, students, and small teams, as well as large enterprises

Since launching in 2026 in North America, Workato has seen rapid growth in the builder community. The platform is enterprise grade, but free to get started. As builders solve problems for their business, they can grow by upgrading to a paid plan. With this launch in Singapore, Workato is making an investment in the local builder community.

“The next era of AI won’t be defined by who has access to intelligence, but by who can turn it into action. We’re putting the same enterprise-grade power trusted by the world’s largest companies into the hands of every builder. We want everyone to be able to transform how their business operates,” said Rishi Mallik, Chief Growth Officer, Workato. 

Workato showcased its self-serve platform and broader community initiatives at World of Workato (WOW) 2026 in Singapore.
