Our support for Ukraine continues, and expressing it is more important than ever
KKCG founder and Chairman of the Board Karel Komárek has confirmed our commitment to Ukraine on the occasion of the fourth anniversary of the war. Take a moment to revisit our support for local businesses and communities – and why it is so essential not only to continue this support, but also to stand openly behind it.
We stand with Ukraine
Four years after the start of Russia's full-on invasion, it is more important than ever to be clear and unequivocal in our support for Ukraine. Supporting Ukraine is a sign of responsibility: upholding the values on which our society is based – respect for human life, freedom and the rule of law.
Through our companies MND and Avenga, our dedicated teams on the ground and the Karel Komárek Family Foundation we continue to do business, make investments and provide assistance to local communities in Ukraine.
We offer meaningful employment; are developing energy and technology solutions; and supporting education, healthcare, culture, veterans, and families affected by the war. We are not doing this because we have to. We are doing it because we believe that responsibility towards our colleagues, our partners and our communities is integral to who we are as a business, and the role we want to play in the world.
Our commitment is not a short-term gesture. It is an expression of our long-term belief in the strength of Ukrainian society, its resilience, and its ability to get back on its feet. Everything we do is founded on these beliefs. It is our way of standing with Ukraine.
Russia has long tried to create the impression that it is striving for peace. The reality tells a different story. Russia continues to attack civilians, infrastructure, and energy resources. It talks about negotiations while bombing cities, hospitals, schools and libraries. It talks about stability while spreading chaos. We must not succumb to this false rhetoric. True peace cannot be built on occupation and violence. If we close our eyes to injustice today, we may become its victims tomorrow.
So, KKCG will continue to be a reliable partner to Ukraine – today, tomorrow, and during its recovery. Because a free and secure Ukraine is the key to a secure Europe and a future in which truth, justice, and human dignity prevail.

Perhaps no other MND site better illustrates the successful reclamation of land following the end of mining operations. The site of the former Poddvorov 27 borehole now serves as an example of how an area left behind by mining operations can be given a new purpose and actively utilised once more – in the form of a modern agrovoltaic concept.
Hodonín, five years after the tornado
Five years after a devastating tornado, Hodonín has become a model of comprehensive regeneration of public spaces.

Karel Komárek, a native of Hodonín, and his wife Štěpánka, whose foundation played a key role in the regeneration, also viewed the results of the transformation during a two-day visit.
