Business in Ukraine needs considerable stability to balance conditions complicated by the war. UNIC decided to analyze additional tools that can be useful to entrepreneurs and give a new impulse to their businesses’ development and expansion. To this end, we are launching our new regular section #opportunitiesforbusiness with a list of current grant proposals and educational opportunities.
So we suggest you consider the following initiatives.
Financial support
Grant program for 1 million dollars for creative entrepreneurs from the Ministry of Culture and Information Policy of Ukraine and Kyiv School of Economics
The Kyiv School of Economics announced a separate module allocation of individual grants for creative entrepreneurs within the current grant program of the KSE "Talents for Ukraine" charitable fund.
The amount of support is from 5 thousand dollars for each creative talent. If a larger amount is needed, the participant can justify this need.
Deadline: the competition is open permanently until the total program budget is exhausted.
