On 24 September, representatives of the Zaporizhzhia Chamber of Commerce and Industry joined the IV International Export Forum, which was organised in a hybrid offline/online format by the Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (UCCI) together with the Enterprise Europe Network Ukraine consortium.

The forum became a key platform for strategic dialogue on strengthening Ukraine’s export potential and integration into global markets, in particular the EU, Asia, North America and other regions. Effective tools from international organisations were presented to businesses and start-ups.

More than 500 participants joined the event and were welcomed by:

“We are grateful to our defenders for the opportunity to shape the ecosystem for the growth of Ukrainian business today. We have brought together representatives of business, international partners, start-ups, export-oriented companies, government agencies and experts to find answers to the question of how our businesses can advance into global markets. Today, the Chamber is an “export laboratory” where roadmaps and strategic plans are born, and we are always ready to support their implementation,” said Hennadiy Chyzhykov, President of the Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
