In 2025, the tax space of Dіia.City will be expanded to attract venture funds, science parks, R&D, and technical testing. This was announced by Vice Prime Minister for Innovation, Education, Science, and Technology, and Minister of Digital Transformation, Mykhailo Fedorov, during an event marking the third anniversary of Dіia.City.
“We have an ambition to create the best conditions for opening venture funds in Ukraine. That’s why we are working on the Dія.City Invest project. We need to think about how to attract investments for reconstruction, and we must create the right, easy conditions for venture investments. Currently, our biggest angel investor is the Innovation Development Fund, which is state-run, and that’s not right—there should be private venture funds. The Dіia.City Invest subproject will allow us to do that,” Fedorov said.
In collaboration with the Ministry of Education, work is also ongoing on the Science City project, which will integrate science parks into Dія.City and have a positive impact on the development of high-tech industries in the Ukrainian economy.
“And of course, we are expanding the range of activities. We plan to propose changes to the law soon, adding R&D and technical testing as activities. We see a large number of companies in the private sector that are starting to engage in science, and that’s great—it’s what leads to changes and innovations in many areas,” the minister noted.
A total of 1,555 companies, representing 70% of all economic sectors, have already joined the Dіia.City tax space.
