The Kyiv Business Centre has begun operations in Kyiv, becoming the first specialised British business centre in the Ukrainian capital. It is intended to serve as a permanent platform for cooperation between defence companies from the two countries, the development of joint technologies, and attracting investment. The opening was announced by Ukraine\u2019s Ministry of Defence and the UK government.<\/p>\n
The Kyiv Business Centre was established with the support of the British government as part of the 100-year partnership between the two countries. Its activities will focus on three areas: industry, innovation, and investment.<\/p>\n
The centre will help British companies establish direct contacts with Ukrainian government bodies, manufacturers, representatives of the innovation sector, and investors. They will be able to obtain information about Ukraine\u2019s needs and explore opportunities for joint development, manufacturing, and investment.<\/p>\n
Particular attention will be paid to small and medium-sized businesses, for which operating in Ukraine during the full-scale war involves additional costs, security risks, and administrative challenges.<\/p>\n
The centre will also serve Ukrainian businesses seeking partners in the UK or planning to establish subsidiaries there.<\/p>\n
Luke Pollard, the UK Minister for Defence Readiness and Industry, said the new platform would create additional opportunities for investment, business development, and Ukraine\u2019s long-term recovery.<\/p>\n
According to Rupert Pearce, the UK\u2019s National Armaments Director, the permanent presence of British companies in Kyiv is expected to facilitate cooperation with Ukrainian partners and create new opportunities for innovation, investment, and exports.<\/p>\n
Ukraine\u2019s Ministry of Defence reports that more than 40 major partnerships have already been established between companies from the two countries. The new centre is intended to expand this cooperation and turn existing agreements into joint industrial and technology projects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":152302,"menu_order":0,"template":"","newscat":[9],"newstag":[],"issues":[],"class_list":["post-152301","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","newscat-novosti"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/152301","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/152302"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=152301"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"newscat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/newscat?post=152301"},{"taxonomy":"newstag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/newstag?post=152301"},{"taxonomy":"issues","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/issues?post=152301"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
