Editor for Startup Kitchen, covering the startup landscape across CEE and Ukraine. A journalist with over a decade of international reporting under his belt, Fergus tracks the realities of the AI revolution, cybersecurity and how Ukrainian defense tech is actively rewriting European security strategy.
Fergus links regional software trends directly to global defense policy. Having reported across three continents and spent over ten years investigating digital privacy and cyber threats, he approaches early-stage technology with an investigative rigor forged through international field reporting.
He chronicles how frontline innovation across Central and Eastern Europe is transforming modern warfare and enterprise tech. Focusing heavily on Ukraine's defense tech ecosystem, he details how battlefield-tested software, autonomous systems and rapid AI deployment are dismantling traditional European security doctrine and setting new standards for resilience.
