Mykolaiv entrepreneurs unite to develop business community

A meeting of local entrepreneurs was held in Mykolaiv. The participants discussed issues of strengthening the business community, opportunities for attracting grant funds and new areas of cooperation.

This was reported by the press service of the Mykolaiv Development Agency.

The key point of the event was the presentation of a platform for entrepreneurs, which was presented by the head of the NGO "Direction" Yuriy Trusov. He emphasized the importance of an active business community for Mykolaiv, which can unite entrepreneurs for mutual support, exchange of experience and stimulation of economic development in the region.

Oleg Feshchenko, an expert from the Recovery and Development Office, spoke about the specifics of grant funding in Ukraine. Currently, grants open up prospects for business development by facilitating the implementation of new projects and improving infrastructure.
