Western NIS Enterprise Fund (WNISEF) announces a new Ukrainian Relocated Enterprises Support Program. At the pilot phase of the Program, WNISEF has joined the martial law business support initiative of the Lviv Regional Military Administration (LRMA) and will double the amount of non-refundable financial assistance for businesses that relocate to the Lviv region.

Western NIS Enterprise Fund (WNISEF) announced today that it has supported the Independent Anti-Corruption Advisory Committee / Comitetul Consultativ Independent Anticorupție (CCIA). The CCIA was constituted on June 7, 2021, by Presidential Decree of Moldova. Its main purposes are to analyze systemic and other issues of corruption within and across Moldovan institutions; strengthen the general and specific understanding of corruption issues; assess the implementation of anti-corruption efforts, providing recommendations on improving the effectiveness and efficiency of such activities in Moldova; and follow up with regular periodicity on its recommendations, to see what progress has been made. The CCIA is modelled after similar bodies in Afghanistan and Ukraine.

Lviv IT Cluster is expanding the IT Research project, which since 2015 has been conducting a comprehensive study and analysis of the Lviv IT market. In 2021, for the first time, the project had scaled beyond the region and studied the tech industry of Ivano-Frankivsk. Now IT Research is becoming a large all-Ukrainian study – IT Research Ukraine, covering 24 regions of the country. For the first time in Ukraine, 14,000 IT specialists will be surveyed within the research.

The Western NIS Enterprise Fund (WNISEF) and the Future Technologies Activity (FTA) in Moldova, funded by USAID and Sweden, are supporting Moldova Innovation Technology Park (MITP) in promoting Moldova as a high-value IT destination using digital technologies to advance business and society in innovative ways.
