The Swiss Federal Council, at its meeting on September 19, approved the allocation of 30 million francs for the “Competitiveness for Ukraine’s Recovery 2026–2030” programme.
These funds will be directed at promoting the development of an innovative and internationally competitive private sector.
“Innovation, local added value and better integration into international supply chains can make Ukraine’s economy more resilient, create skilled jobs and open up new export markets,” the Swiss Embassy’s statement reads.
According to the statement, the program supports the Ukrainian government’s priorities on improving the country’s competitiveness and implementing reforms, works with regional and national authorities as well as the private sector in Ukraine, fosters ties between Ukrainian and Swiss companies, and creates new business opportunities.
“The programme demonstrates Switzerland’s long-term commitment to stability and prosperity in Ukraine and Europe and is an integral part of its cooperation program with Ukraine for 2025–2028,” the embassy added.
