The European Union has offered Ukrainian
businesses and investment projects funding worth EUR80 billion under the
Horizon 2020 program
Managing Partner of the Poberezhnyuk and
Partners law group Larysa Poberezhnyuk told Interfax-Ukraine the country signed
an agreement with the EU in March on Ukraine's participation in the Horizon
2020 program, which was ratified last August.
Horizon 2020 is the largest EU program for
research and innovation with a budget of approximately EUR80 billion.
The period of the program’s implementation is
seven years, from 2014 to 2020.
"This cooperation has opened up new
prospects for the development of national business. Intelligent, sustainable
and inclusive growth are the goals that Europe proclaimed in its strategy until
2020 that could be implemented in Ukraine thanks to this program, which allows
us to get funding for innovative projects and new directions," she said.
According to the lawyer, Ukrainian enterprises
and companies have the opportunity to fully participate in these processes to
develop their own business and implement new technologies.
