Meeting with participants within the "Power of Opportunities" project

Is it enough for an entrepreneur to know their business in order to grow? And what about legislative changes affecting the activities of companies and sole proprietors (FOPs)?

Recently, within the walls of the Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce and Industry / Ukrainian CCI, an offline meeting was held for the participants of the "Power of Opportunities" business training programme.

The topic of the meeting was "New developments in administrative procedure legislation. What businesses need to know". The speaker was Valentyna Poltavets — head of the Centre for Local Self-Government Quality and partner of the Kyiv Regional Development Agency.

During the event, participants had the opportunity to:

• learn about current changes in legislation for entrepreneurs;
• discuss how the new rules will affect their work;
• ask questions and receive practical advice;
• share experience, meet and network in person.

This meeting once again confirmed the importance of the offline format for our project: it creates a space for exchanging knowledge and experience, for dialogue and support between entrepreneurs of Kyiv Oblast.

We thank Valentyna Poltavets for her professional explanations, and all participants — for their activity and sincere desire to develop their business!
