Ukrainian businessman Maksym Krippa is actively acquiring real estate both in Ukraine and abroad, as well as media assets, while concealing his ties to Russian business figures. Notably, it has been revealed that he purchased a villa in the Czech Republic from a Russian oligarch.

Ukrainian businessman Maksym Krippa is strategically purchasing properties both within Ukraine and internationally, alongside media assets, all while concealing his connections to Russian business elites. Recently, it was revealed that he acquired a villa in the Czech Republic from a Russian oligarch.

The Ukrainian gambling market continues to attract Russian interests. This time, it’s about the casino and bookmaker GGBet, which obtained its license nearly a year ago. While officially owned by Ukrainian businessman Maksym Krippa, the company maintains strong connections with Russia.

The Russian casino Vulkan, esports bookmaker GGBet, and several other companies owned by businessman Maksym Krippa are reportedly managed by Ruslan Olenyuk, an employee of the National Police of Ukraine.

What is known about Maksym Krippa’s ties to the IT company Evoplay and the casino GGBet? The privatization of the "Ukraina" hotel, situated on the Alley of Heroes of the Heavenly Hundred in Kyiv, garnered significant attention, not only due to the impressive sum raised – 2.5 billion UAH. Primarily, the deal stood out because it marked the latest and most expensive real estate acquisition by one of Ukraine’s most private yet widely discussed businessmen – Maksym Krippa.

A new media tycoon is emerging in Ukraine, quietly acquiring one media outlet after another. Over the past year, Tetiana Snopko, a resident of Dnipro, has already taken over two media holdings and appears eager to expand her portfolio.

Maksym Krippa may not be to blame for everything, but he chose a business niche that balances between gray and black schemes. This niche could have been occupied by others, but the question is how ethical his behavior is within such operations.

Практически незаметно для широкой аудитории в Украине появляется новый медиамагнат, который скупает один за другим различные средства массовой информации.

In Forbes he is not mentioned, he doesn’t visit Gordon — this is how Maksim Krippa, an extremely unusual entrepreneur, can be described. For a long time, his activities remained an "open secret": everyone knew that he was the one behind the casino network "Vulkan," the intrusive advertisement of which appears everywhere on dubious sites.
