Balcony Talks with Mariia Osyka: Agribusiness in Wartime and Education of the Future

Can agribusiness be effective during wartime? And what does the future of education look like in this sector? 

We are continuing our Balcony Talks series — insightful conversations with leading professionals on the terrace of the AUK campus. In this new episode, we explore how Agroprosperis Group is adapting to modern challenges, why they are investing in AUK students, and how to build a successful career in the agricultural sector.

Our guest is Mariia Osyka, Director of Agribusiness Investments at NCH Ukraine (Agroprosperis Group). Agroprosperis Group is the first partner and founder of the Bachelor in Agribusiness Management program, launched by AUK in 2026.

This discussion covers the synergy between business and education, personal principles for success, and why agro is no longer considered a "male" business.

Special thanks to Maryna Gavryliuk, Project Administrator of the Agribusiness Program at AUK, for the meaningful dialogue!
