A science and engineering startup from Ukraine

KULYA moved beyond being a standalone prototype and began to take shape as a platform. We bring structure to the engineering solutions, develop a DIY approach, and define educational use scenarios. A clear understanding of who KULYA is for and why it exists emerges. At the same time, the brand grows, the first systemic partnerships take form, and the project gradually evolves into an open engineering and educational ecosystem.

The project is featured in the IP & Innovation Guide, prepared by the Ukrainian National Office for Intellectual Property and Innovations in cooperation with the Technology and Innovation Support Center (TISC UANIPIO), as a documented engineering and educational outcome of the UkraineRobotics team.

KULYA moves beyond the workshop together with the team. This is followed by the Impulse art installation within UN Women Ukraine and the Serendipitous Events program, which helps define KULYA’s direction at the intersection of engineering, education, art, and culture (STEAM).

The project receives angel investment support, enabling KULYA to be presented in an international context at events in Brussels (including EU for Youth Day), Boston, and Kyiv at the Inscience Conference. In parallel, partnerships take shape, the website is launched, and the open-source DIY KULYA 4.0 becomes a reality, along with the first educational institutions integrating KULYA into their STEAM learning programs.
