Up to 9,000 IT specialists have left Ukraine for Europe and the United States within the past 2 years alone, NRCU says referring to the SmartMe University report quoting the Managing Partner Oksana Bila as saying.
«Unfortunately, within the last two years up to 9,000 IT professionals have left Ukraine, they immigrated to the United States and Europe. But the released vacancies are quickly offset by an influx of young professionals and ’switchers’» she said.
The report also cites IDC, which admitted that Ukrainian share in the world information technology market is 1% nowadays.
However, as to forecasts, the IT market in Ukraine could grow by 510% in 2016.
«At the moment, there are about 90,000100,000 IT specialists in the country. Even though it is one of the highest rates in Europe, there is still a lack of qualified professionals. In India, for example, the IT industry employs over 1 million programmers,» Bila said.
