The projects of entrepreneur Vasyl Khmelnytskyi’s holding company UFuture—IP “Bila Tserkva” and “Bila Tserkva 2”—were included in the Register of Industrial Parks in 2018. The parks are home to more than two dozen tenants (including foreign companies).

The Bila Tserkva Industrial Park (IP)—a project of entrepreneur Vasyl Khmelnytskyi’s holding company UFuture—is building an educational hub and plans to open it in 2026, Oleksiy Henzer, commercial director of the Bila Tserkva Industrial Park, told Interfax-Ukraine. According to him, the building, with a total area of 2,500 square meters, will house classrooms, training facilities with modern equipment, production laboratories, a conference hall, and office and social spaces.
“For us, the industrial park is a platform for shared infrastructure and collaborative solutions. Together, we create the engineering foundation, organize services, and must also jointly address systemic barriers that are difficult, expensive, and not always effective for an individual resident to overcome on their own. “One of the most pressing issues today is the availability of qualified specialists. For us, the training of specialists is part of the investment infrastructure,” he said.
Genzer emphasized the critical importance of supporting the community’s industrial development alongside the simultaneous development of education at all levels. “We are currently planning to involve a specialized educational institution to develop modern curricula. We also plan to involve residents in the program to give people the opportunity to train on modern equipment and obtain relevant qualifications directly within the park,” he said.
In addition, among the projects of the “Bila Tserkva” Industrial Park is support for secondary and vocational education. In particular, a memorandum has been signed with local authorities regarding the renovation of vocational training classrooms. Two classrooms have already been renovated, and by 2028, we plan to renovate classrooms in 13 more educational institutions.
“The community is handling the renovations, while we provide modern equipment. We hope that within the framework of this project, we will be able to cover almost all secondary schools in the city,” said Genzer.
