Borys Grinchenko Kyiv Metropolitan University (Ukrainian: Київський столичний університет імені Бориса Грінченка) is a higher education institution. The university was established by Kyiv municipal council through reorganization of Kyiv regional Teachers Training Institute named after Borys Hrinchenko. The university is communal property.According to the decision of Kyiv municipal council of 8 October 2009 Kyiv Municipal Pedagogical University named after Borys Grinchenko was renamed Borys Grinchenko Kyiv University and its status changed. The university was transformed from a pedagogical profile to a multi-profile classic educational institution. This enabled it to expand its activities and have more majors, ensuring full satisfaction of educational requirements of Kyiv dwellers, meeting the needs of Kyiv and its region. In implementing these tasks the university's activity is aimed at achieving high standards and becoming a European-level institution.The university consists of six institutes, four faculties and one university college with more than 9,000 students. There are 35 operating departments. The scientific-pedagogical staff includes 49 PhDs, 184 EdSs, and 434 teachers. The university offers 10 masters, 12 specialist and 12 bachelor level programmes. Each year around 6000 teachers and school principals enhance their skills and gain qualifications at the university. The university gives PhD training.
The study clarifies the essence of innovation infrastructure as a digitally-oriented ecosystem, develops an integrated model of its development based on the triple helix model, taking into account the digital component. Digitalization (Weighted index IID), which takes into account the different significance of eight key indicators. The empirical study was conducted based on the comparative analysis of Ukraine with six countries (Norway, Estonia, Poland, Slovakia, Romania, and Moldova). The main results of the study showed that Ukraine ranks 6th among the seven countries under study in terms of the innovation development of the infrastructure, with an index value of 26.44 (compared to 169.26 in Norway and 147.34 in Estonia). The most critical weaknesses are extremely low business spending on R&D, weak network cooperation of innovatively active small and medium-sized businesses, low intensity of public-private interaction, and insufficient use of cloud technologies by enterprises. At the same time, Ukraine's relative competitive advantage is a relatively higher level of venture capital. The Weighted index IID has been tested, which takes into account the different importance of indicators for the formation of a modern innovation ecosystem. The results obtained confirm that in the digitalization context, the efficiency of innovation infrastructure is determined not so much by the presence of individual objects as by the synergy between the digital basis, financial and resource support, and network interaction of the participants in the triple helix. The identified significant imbalances indicate the need to intensify research and development in business, develop digital infrastructure, and stimulate public-private cooperation.
During excavations at the settlement of the Trypillia Culture of the BII stage near the village of Nebelivka, pit-like objects were investigated, located next to the remains of buildings B17 and B18. Magnetic surveying conducted at dozens of settlements of the Cucuteni-Trypillian cultural complex revealed a huge number of such objects, but only a few of them have been excavated so far. Thus, the results and experience of relatively large-scale excavations in Nebelivka may be useful in further studying the Trypillian pits. The objects in Nebelivka were discovered using magnetic surveying, which showed their non-standard configuration. Archaeological research confirmed the results of magnetic surveying and provided significant material, the study of which allows reconstructing some aspects of the use of these objects. At first, archaeologists believed these were dugouts used as dwellings. Later, they began to be seen as a source of clay for construction and repair of dwellings, as well as a source of clay for pottery production. Researchers also considered their ritual function. As a result, we can talk about the initial purpose of the pits as pits for extracting building materials, and later as cult objects.
Protecting information and transferring data over a Virtual Private Network (VPN) are important issues nowadays, as the risks of cybercrime and data theft are increasing in all developed countries. A VPN is a lightweight program that connects your devices to remote servers scattered around the world, hiding your real IP address. This way, when you go online and access a particular website, your internet company cannot see what web services you are using, and the website host cannot determine your true location. VPNs also use several data encryption technologies to encrypt information exchanged over a wireless or wired network, making it unreadable to outsiders. Protecting yourself with a VPN is one of the few possible and 100% legal ways to protect your data and disappear from mass surveillance agents. This paper discusses ways to ensure the security of data transmission over the Internet using multi-layer tunneling.
У статті досліджено взаємозв’язок між розвитком малого та середнього бізнесу (МСП) і створенням нових робочих місць в Україні. На основі статистичних даних за 2014–2024 рр. проведено аналіз динаміки кількості підприємств різних груп (мікро-, малих і середніх) та їхнього внеску у загальну зайнятість населення. Визначено, що при домінуванні мікропідприємств і малих підприємств у структурі МСП їхній вплив на ринок праці залишається мінімальним, тоді як саме середні підприємства забезпечують більшість робочих місць і відіграють ключову роль у відновленні економічної активності. За результатами кореляційного аналізу встановлено сильний позитивний зв’язок між кількістю середніх підприємств та рівнем зайнятості, тоді як вплив малого бізнесу є слабким. Обґрунтовано необхідність переорієнтації державної політики підтримки МСП з кількісного зростання на стимулювання переходу підприємств у продуктивніші сегменти, здатні створювати стійкі робочі місця.
