On the eve of Entrepreneur's Day, a meeting of local business representatives and city authorities took place in the Chuhuiv community. The event was an opportunity not only to congratulate entrepreneurs on their professional holiday, but also to discuss current opportunities for developing their own businesses and to hear about the needs of the community's businesses.

The organizers wanted the meeting to be not only a ceremonial event, but also to have a practical component. Representatives of the Kharkiv Regional Development Agency, the Chuguiv branch of the regional employment center, and the Campus Youth Center told entrepreneurs about available support tools.

In particular, the topic was about opportunities to attract funding, state and international support programs, grant instruments, developing one's own business, and creating new jobs.

During the meeting, entrepreneurs who have already received grant support were also recognized. Four business representatives were presented with awards from the Kharkiv Oblast Regional Development Agency.

Special attention during the event was paid to the role of entrepreneurs in ensuring the economic sustainability of the community.

«"Doing business in a peaceful city is a challenge. And doing business in a front-line community is a daily courage," emphasized Galina Minaeva, head of the Chuguiv City Military Administration.

Despite shelling, danger, logistical difficulties, staff shortages, and financial challenges, entrepreneurs in the Chuhuiv community continue to work and develop their businesses. They open and reopen shops, factories, and establishments, provide services, create jobs, support the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and help the community.

It is thanks to the activity of local businesses that the economic stability of the Chuhuiv community is formed.

Halyna Minaeva emphasizes that one of the key tasks of local authorities is to support entrepreneurs - help in finding opportunities, attracting resources, and creating conditions for stable work and further business development.

«A strong local business is a strong community,» the community leader emphasized.

She thanked the entrepreneurs for their hard work, resilience, and contribution to community development and wished them new opportunities, successful projects, reliable partners, and confidence in the future.
