Ukrainian startup made it to the top 10 of Web Summit 2025: innovative AI-powered prosthetics

The Web Summit 2025 took place in Lisbon (Portugal) - one of the largest technology conferences in the world. This event gathered over 71,000 participants, 3,000 companies, over 1,000 investors, and 2,700 startups, serving as a platform for showcasing innovations from around the globe.

Within the framework of the summit, the Ukrainian delegation presented the SYLA project - a medical startup that develops 'smart' knee prosthetics based on artificial intelligence and neural networks. These prosthetics can adapt to the user's movements in real-time, providing greater freedom of movement and comfort for people with lower limb amputations.

‘Such prosthetics are capable of adapting to the individual dynamics of walking, ensuring greater freedom of movement and comfort for people with lower limb amputations.’

SYLA made it into the top ten best projects at Web Summit 2025 among 2,700 participants from around the world and attracted the attention of international investors. It was also recognized as a socially significant project that improves the quality of life for patients.

The startup team is actively seeking investments for further technology development. Earlier, SYLA received a grant of 25,000 dollars from the Ukrainian Startup Fund.

The Ukrainian startup SYLA gained recognition at Web Summit 2025 due to its unique approach to the rehabilitation of lower limb diseases. This success confirms the high level of technological development of Ukrainian companies and their readiness to compete in the international market of innovations.
