Greencubator received a national award Ukrainian Enterprise Promotion Awards (UEPA) for helping innovative businesses develop, implement and scale climate technologies through the implementation of the Climate Innovation Vouchers grant project!
The award ceremony was held as part of the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine's event "Economic Policy of Ukraine. Recovery during the war". The event brought together more than 250 participants. It presented Ukraine's economic strategy, new initiatives and digital tools for business development under martial law.
Yulia Svyrydenko, First Vice Prime Minister and Minister of Economy of Ukraine, spoke at the event. The event featured a panel discussion with representatives of the Ministry, the Business Ombudsman, and business founders, as well as the awarding of entrepreneurs who are leaders in their industries and organizations that promote the development of small and medium-sized businesses.
UEPA award to the head of the company Greencubator Roman Zinchenko and Climate Innovation Vouchers project manager Olha Zubchyk were presented with the vouchers by First Deputy Minister of Economy Oleksiy Sobolev and the European Union representative to Ukraine Henrik Witfeldt.
Today, Climate Innovation Vouchers is one of the country's largest grant competitions for innovators in the field of clean technologies. It is a component of the EBRD's Climate Change Technology and Finance Transfer Center (FINTECC) program, supported by the European Union under the EU4CLIMATE initiative.
We are grateful for the award and are pleased that the Climate Innovation Vouchers program, which we are very proud to be grantees of, is recognized by the state as valuable and promising.
This means that even more companies will learn about this opportunity and even more worthy ideas will be supported by the EBRD, the EU and Greencubator, so that Ukrainian sustainable business can flourish and cross borders.
As one of the UEPA winners, we are looking forward to representing Ukraine in November at the European stage of the award - EEPA, during the SME Assembly 2024 in Hungary!
