At the World Economic Forum in Davos, the first investment round of Amber Dragon Ukraine Infrastructure Fund I—the first-ever Ukrainian fund exclusively investing in infrastructure—was closed.
The agreement was signed by Aliona Shkrum, First Deputy Minister for Communities and Territories Development of Ukraine. The fund, announced earlier in Rome at the International Ukraine Recovery Conference (URC2025), has a total volume of €350 million, with financing from major international financial institutions including EBRD, EIB, IFC, Swedfund, and IFD.
The closure of this first round means the fund will soon start investments in logistics, transport, infrastructure, and energy sectors, which are critical for citizens, the economy, exports, business, and daily life. Amber Dragon continues to work on attracting additional funding for Ukraine’s recovery.
Shkrum emphasized that this agreement sends a clear signal to global investors:
"This proves that investing in Ukraine during wartime is possible. It is especially important that these funds will be directed to developing Ukraine’s infrastructure. At a time when the country faces serious challenges in energy and transport systems, such tools allow us to recover faster and make logistics and energy resilient to any shocks."
These investments will help rebuild infrastructure, creating more resilient and modern energy, transport, and logistics systems adapted to Ukraine’s current needs.
The Ministry for Communities and Territories Development continues to ensure that reconstruction and infrastructure projects remain attractive to international investors.
