The initiative is expected to generate around 400 new jobs and sustain over 700 existing positions, while attracting further private investments into Moldova’s economy.

“These grants reduce risks and promote smart, innovative investments,” said Deputy Prime Minister Doina Nistor. ODA Director Vadim Codreanu highlighted ongoing improvements, including program expansion and digitization to ease access for entrepreneurs.

This marks the third such event hosted by ODA in 2025, accompanied by sessions to help beneficiaries with project implementation and compliance.
