28/ 10/ 2025

On 24 October, the European Business Association’s Committee on Ukraine’s Recovery held a meeting with Maryna Khlystun, Executive Director of UkraineInvest – the Investment Promotion and Support Office. During the meeting, participants discussed the agency’s recent achievements and plans. Maryna Khlystun spoke about the transformation of UkraineInvest, from an institution responsible for implementing the Law on Significant Investments to an operational one-stop shop for attracting investment to Ukraine, working in coordination with ministries, government bodies, and other stakeholders. Among UkraineInvest’s priorities are proactive and systematic investment attraction, focusing on 15 key countries, developing a robust investment pipeline, participating in international events to engage foreign investors, analysing financing programmes, and supporting investor-related initiatives in Ukraine. In cooperation with international financial institutions, UkraineInvest is also working on the development of insurance products for investors and tools to attract private capital, including the establishment of private funds. All projects with an investment volume exceeding USD 12 million receive full support and facilitation from the Office. UkraineInvest also actively engages with companies already operating in Ukraine to take their needs into account. The meeting also addressed the development and promotion of the Investment Map of Ukraine, jointly launched in 2023 by the European Business Association, Global Business for Ukraine, and UkraineInvest. The map provides potential investors with interactive information about available investment opportunities across Ukraine’s regions, their characteristics, and potential, as well as the possibility to submit investment proposals directly. Currently, the map features 195 projects with a total investment potential of over USD 6.3 billion. Additionally, participants discussed possible areas of cooperation between the EBA and UkraineInvest, particularly in selecting and presenting promising projects, sharing contacts and expertise, and providing analytical support to help businesses make informed investment decisions in the Ukrainian market. The European Business Association extends its gratitude to Maryna Khlystun and the UkraineInvest team for their productive cooperation.
