Why now?

In today’s information space, Ukrainian entrepreneurs are already facing new challenges on a systematic basis, one of which is the unmotivated discrediting of business on social media, in particular, in various Telegram channels.

This phenomenon is becoming increasingly dangerous today, as it exists beyond any legal boundaries and often takes the form of not just manipulation but also aggressive pressure.

Representatives of the business community who have faced virtual Telegram attacks continue to deal with very real reputational and significant financial and economic consequences.

Our goal:

• To hear different points of view on the problem of the emergence of such a phenomenon as Telegram pressure in the media space of Ukraine
• To understand why and who “orders such a service” without any consequences
• Analyze the experience of business and PR professionals who will frankly talk about the main dangers and weaknesses of the authors of Telegram attacks
• Develop a universal algorithm for countering this phenomenon
• Find out how to properly restore business reputation
