The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine is planning to approve a new procedure for using state support funds for industrial parks in the next week or two with an additional program for receiving monetary compensation for infrastructure damaged by Russian attacks in the amount of up to UAH 200 million, Deputy Minister of Economy Vitaliy Kindrativ said.
“In the near future, we will come up with a new procedure for the use of funds, which will include an additional program for receiving compensation for damaged infrastructure in industrial parks. That is, if there was a Russian attack, something was lost or destroyed, the state will be able to give you up to UAH 200 million to restore the infrastructure. I think it will be adopted by the government in a week or two, and we will soon receive applications,” he said during the annual Eco-Industrial Parks Conference in Kyiv on Friday.
He expressed hope that there will be few applications for restoration, but reminded that there are already “two bad cases, and it is on them that we have developed this mechanism of support from the state for those who suffered.”
Mr. Kindrativ also noted that the incentives provided by the state for the development of industrial parks are enough to develop a network of them.
“For our part, we see one big gap that we have been working on for two years now, and we hope to achieve results – a program to support and develop the capacity of IPs, management companies, and participants. That is, it is not enough to create and register an IP, it is necessary to fill it with appropriate meanings and tools, to bring in residents and give it life, and this requires additional competence and those who create the park do not always have it,” said the Deputy Minister of Economy.
According to him, launching this program this year is one of the government’s priorities.
Mr. Kindrativ also reminded that Ukraine is probably the only country in the world that has developed and approved the standard of an eco-industrial park at the state level.
“And it seems to me that for businesses that are planning and looking towards industrial parks, this is a good beacon of what they should do to develop in this direction,” he summarized.
As reported, as of the end of 2025, 37 industrial enterprises were built or under construction in Ukrainian industrial parks, of which 22 plants have already been built and 15 are under construction.
Currently, the Register of Industrial Parks includes more than 113 objects. Industrial parks are part of the investment component of the Made in Ukraine policy for the development of Ukrainian producers.
In October 2025, for example, a Russian missile destroyed the Sparrow Industrial Park in Lviv.
The EIP Ukraine 2026 conference is being implemented as a flagship national event within the framework of the Global Eco-Industrial Parks Program II – Ukraine: National Implementation (GEIPP-II Ukraine) project.
