3. Mission, Goal, and Tasks
The mission of ICOM Capital is to provide professional support in economic growth, market stability,
public transparency and international recognition of the Ukrainian business.
Our goal is to work out and join efforts to implement a long-term strategy for the development of your
business.
Our main task is to be an "investment producer" for a successful company on the way of its
transformation into an industry leader, to help the medium company to turn into a large one, to
support the local business on its way to the international market.
ICOM’s main difference from other companies that provide investment banking services is the
following: our team of the investment experts – who are top-managers in the large companies and
experienced business communications specialists - not only attracts resources for our client’s
business development, but make them work to maximise the client’s business value and its status in
the business community.

6. ICOM: Investment Salon (IS)
Investment Salon (IS) is an operating since 2010 communication platform for the Ukrainian
companies that are ready to develop their businesses according to the international standards, and
foreign investors who look for attractive and clear investment objects to work with in Ukraine.
The IS project has started as a joint initiative of ICOM Capital and PRT Communication Group, with
support of the Warsaw Stock Exchange, and in partnership with the Baker Tilly Ukraine Audit
Company and Asters Ukrainian Law Firm.
A distinctive feature of the Investment Salon is a strong professional focus: a minimum of semi-official
statements and a maximum of the real and concrete business. Such a format is the shortest way for
investment attractiveness assessment, selection of optimal investment models and getting feedback.
Within the framework of this project, two full-scale Investment Salons as well as more then 10
regional business-breakfasts took place in Ukraine. At the WSE suggestion, the 3 rd Investment Salon
will take place in early 2013 in Warsaw.
