Economic cooperation between the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine continues to develop despite existing regional challenges. In recent years, Moldova has seen an increase in the presence of small and medium-sized enterprises established by Ukrainian entrepreneurs, which contributes to the development of services, logistics, trade, and creative industries, as well as the strengthening of business relations between the two countries. Ukraine is one of Moldova's main trading partners, accounting for approximately 11% of the country's total foreign trade.

During the meeting, participants discussed current opportunities for the development of small and medium-sized enterprises, the specifics of doing business in Moldova, as well as tools for supporting and scaling projects. Particular attention was paid to the development of entrepreneurial competencies and the exchange of practical experience.

At the end of the meeting, an initiative to create a business school for entrepreneurs was presented. The program will focus on developing practical business skills, understanding the regulatory environment, using modern sales and promotion tools, and expanding business contacts.
