Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has held talks with Alex Karp, chief executive of US data analytics firm Palantir Technologies, focusing on potential cooperation across defence and civilian sectors.
According to a statement shared on Telegram by Zelenskyy, the discussions centred on expanding technological collaboration amid ongoing military challenges, as well as exploring applications in Ukraine’s civilian infrastructure.
“We are steadily developing cooperation with the US defence sector,” Zelenskyy said.
“Palantir is a globally recognised company with strong potential, and there are areas where we can be useful to each other — strengthening the defence of Ukraine, the United States and our partners.”
He added that the talks covered “technological development both in the context of combat operations and civilian needs,” and confirmed that both sides had agreed to keep their respective teams in contact to advance the dialogue.
Palantir Technologies, known for its advanced big data analytics and artificial intelligence software, works with government defence and intelligence agencies in the United States, underlining the strategic dimension of the engagement.
