Ukraine to present 20-30 PPP projects at URC-2026 in Gdansk – first dpty development minister

Ukraine plans to present approximately 20-30 public-private partnership (PPP) projects at the international Ukraine Recovery Conference (URC) to be held in Gdansk on June 25-26 this year, First Deputy Minister for Development of Communities and Territories Alyona Shkrum said.

"We will present approximately 20-30 projects ready for application. This is our goal – the end of June," she said at the Ukraine-EU business summit in Brussels on Wednesday.

Shkrum invited investors to participate in URC-2026 and in subsequent PPP tenders.

In general, there are thousands of projects in the DREAM (dream.gov.ua) digital system of priority projects that require funding for reconstruction and were submitted by communities, port authorities, Ukrzaliznytsia and other applicants, she said.

Shkrum also specified that 146 projects were recognized as priority public investment projects for this year and are also available for review on the website.

When asked whether all these projects are bankable, the first deputy minister noted that PPP projects "are definitely bankable," while many others indeed require additional preparatory work.
