We are ready to pass on all the experience gained by the company over the years of leadership in the domestic market to the younger generation. By creating conditions in which students can be engaged in scientific processes, not with words but with deeds, we are creating the future of Ukraine,” says Volodymyr Kostiuk, Executive Director of Farmak.
