Figma Responds to Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine
Figma CEO Dylan Field has issued a public statement addressing Russia’s war on Ukraine, outlining the company’s response in humanitarian, operational, and commercial terms.
Field framed the invasion as an attack on the democratic values that Figma’s mission of making design accessible to all is built upon. He noted that the company clearly sees the hardship its Ukrainian community is facing and emphasized the importance of the international diversity within both the Figma team and its wider user base.
Community Support and Access
Figma’s internal community of employees has been making contributions to organizations supporting Ukrainian refugees and humanitarian relief efforts. The company is matching those contributions through its existing donation matching program.
For Ukrainian users, Figma is granting continued access to its paid features for customers who request assistance over the coming months.
Compliance and Sales Actions
In response to the conflict, Figma is complying fully with U.S. and EU sanctions against Russia. The company has also stopped all new sales efforts within Russia.
Field closed the statement by expressing hope for the community’s safety and an end to the aggression.
