History JSC Kyivstar, the wholly owned subsidiary of Kyivstar Group, was founded in 1994 under the name "Bridge," and was one of the first mobile networks in Ukraine. It initially focused on mobile services and, through the 2000s, broadened its offerings by investing in mobile data services and modernizing its infrastructure to support the rollout of 3G and later 4G LTE networks. In 2005, already a leader in the Ukrainian telecom market, JSC Kyivstar was acquired by VEON (formerly VimpelCom), which has been listed on Nasdaq since 1996. In recent years, JSC Kyivstar has taken steps to diversify its portfolio through strategic acquisitions.
