UkraineInvest continues to engage in active international dialogue in strategic sectors of the Ukrainian economy. A notable example of such cooperation is the interaction with AICEP – the Portuguese Trade and Investment Agency.
The partnership with AICEP plays an important role in enhancing international cooperation and sharing best practices in attracting investment. Through a series of specialised training sessions in late 2024, the UkraineInvest team gained access to modern tools for attracting FDI, promoting Ukrainian companies in international markets, supporting participation in global procurement, developing e-commerce and organising business missions.
The final stage of the programme was a joint sectoral roundtable focused on agro-processing – a key industry for both Ukraine and Portugal. The event brought together representatives from UkraineInvest, AICEP and relevant industry associations, including PortugalFoods and Produtech.
During the roundtable the participants discussed:
UkraineInvest experts presented an overview of government incentives available to foreign investors, as well as an analysis of the agricultural processing industry in Ukraine, highlighting key sub-sectors, regional specificities and potential areas for cooperation with Portuguese companies.
The discussion also covered important issues such as the role of the private sector in Ukraine’s economic recovery, security considerations for investment during a time of war, and international best practices in attracting investment.
Working with AICEP has provided UkraineInvest with valuable knowledge, practical tools and new contacts. It has also served as a platform to promote Ukraine’s economic potential. We sincerely thank our Portuguese partners for their support and joint efforts. Together we are creating new opportunities for investors and contributing to the recovery and development of the Ukrainian economy.
