On 15 February 2024, Minister of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine Oleh Nemchinov opened the Conference on the Reconstruction of Ukraine.

The Conference is organised by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Hellenic Republic.

The main objective of the conference is to discuss strategies and projects aimed at ensuring sustainable development and supporting the Ukrainian economy, in particular in the areas of construction, transport/logistics, energy, IT, start-ups and healthcare.

The discussion was attended by senior officials of the European Commission and the Government of Ukraine, experts from important multilateral development banks, as well as representatives of relevant Greek and Ukrainian business organisations.

"To achieve a rapid and sustainable recovery from the war, it is important to strategically use limited public resources to attract private investment. These efforts should focus not only on rebuilding existing value chains, but also on developing new industries and infrastructure that are in line with Ukraine's deeper integration into the European and transatlantic markets.

The Ukraine Plan will serve as a key strategic document and a roadmap for mobilising significant funding from donors and international financial institutions.

The key sectors that will be prioritised for investment in 2024-2027 and have the greatest potential for Ukraine's growth are: energy; transport and logistics for export; agri-food sector; critical materials; and IT and digitalisation; green transition and environmental protection; processing industry, including green metallurgy," said Oleh Nemchinov, Minister of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.
