Y Soft strengthens its membership in the American Chamber of Commerce of the Czech Republic by representing it on the Chamber’s Board of Directors

Ondřej Krajíček from Y Soft Corporation, a.s., a leading provider of 2D / 3D printing and enterprise office workflows solutions, was elected a member of the Board of Directors of the American Chamber of Commerce in the Czech Republic (AmCham CZ). During his two-year term, Ondřej will focus on the digital transformation of the business environment, support for Czech investments in the USA, support for co-financing of R&D, and eGovernment.

Ondřej Krajíček was elected to the Board of the American Chamber of Commerce in the Czech Republic for a two-year term, focusing on topics related to the digital economy, support for Czech investment in the US, co-financing R&D from public and private sources and the development of eGovernment, i.e., technological development of communication between the state administration and the public. All topics will be closely linked to the national strategy for the use of EU Recovery funds. Already in the past, Ondřej collaborated on the Chamber’s opinions on relevant government agendas. The highest priority in the coming years, which will affect all these areas, is to support strategic investment across the entire private sector to ensure post-COVID-19 economic recovery and growth.

 “I humbly accept the election to the AmCham Chairman Committee and perceive it as an appreciation of Y Soft’s long-term activities in the development of Czech-American business relations and a free and ethical business environment in the Czech Republic. Although the main topics we will address are naturally the current global trends in the fight against Covid-19 and climate change, I will be very active in developing the digitization and eGovernment agenda in my portfolio,” says Ondřej Krajíček from Y Soft.

“Ondřej has always tried to make us think beyond repeating what we did in the past, and that is the type of originality we are all going to need as we adapt to our new economic reality. Like every other board of a business association around the world, we want to help members understand how the virus altered our economy because it is the resilience and creativity of businesses that will create jobs and prosperity, and finance government programs. We are counting on Ondřej’s expertise in both our efforts to make the country a leader in the digital economy and increase the number of Czech tech companies who make it big in the United States,“ said Weston Stacey, Director of the American Chamber of Commerce in the Czech Republic.

Ondřej Krajíček works at Y Soft as Chief Technology Strategist and is dedicated to connecting the world of customers with the right technologies so that the company’s products and services respond flexibly to their needs today and in the future. He works with teams on new innovative solutions within Y Soft Labs and has been active in the American Chamber of Commerce for many years.

He also works for the Startup and IT community as a mentor and teacher, lectures at the Faculty of Informatics of Masaryk University, among others, and mentors in the StartupYard accelerator.
