How it works

Simply drop in at any time between 13:00 and 15:00. You will have the opportunity to speak with Kateryna or Olga individually in a private meeting room, rather than discussing your questions in a group. There is no presentation or fixed program, so you can arrive whenever it suits you and focus on the questions that matter to you.

The session is complimentary, and no registration or appointment is required. If you have a specific question you would like to discuss, you are welcome to contact us in advance.
