On June 15, UkraineInvest, the government investment promotion office, will hold the forth online event «Innovative Investments» as part of the Forum on Investment & Transformation for Ukraine.
FIT for Ukraine – platform promoting investments opportunities for economic transformation of Ukraine.
Ukraine has undergone a significant economic and industrial decline as a result of full-scale military aggression. The country’s GDP has contracted by almost 30%, and the share of manufacturing has dropped to 7% from 11% in 2021. Although businesses have shown resilience in their operations, they face limitations in terms of accessing finance and technologies. The ongoing war in Ukraine represents the largest land military operation in Europe since World War II, highlighting the urgent need for innovative approaches to finance investments.
To revitalize the economy and industrial sector in Ukraine, immediate action is required in the form of impact investments utilizing blended finance, combining state, donor, and private capital, along with attached war/political risk insurance mechanisms. These measures will help stimulate economic growth and attract international companies interested in entering the Ukrainian market.
FIT for Ukraine: innovative investments program has been designed to present the landscape of the investment market in Ukraine, pipeline of projects that seek investment, the most current investment success cases, and preliminary findings of the analytical report on the topic that was initiated by UkraineInvest with the support of the UNDP, and other reputable international organizations.
Time: 16:00-18:00 (EET)
