The Moldova Future Technologies Activity is spurring the development of the digital, creative, and green economy.
The Moldova Future Technologies Activity collaborates with the private sector, academia, and government to build an innovative digital system of economic opportunities for Moldova’s small and medium enterprises and entrepreneurs. This “golden triangle” of diverse stakeholders identifies opportunities, co-creates solutions, and advocates for a business-friendly policy environment and integration with global markets. Simultaneously, collaborators address issues such as energy security, legislation gaps, and support during economic crises.
The experiences and lessons in this case study provide guidance to implementing partners on building their own innovation ecosystems for startup businesses and future-ready professionals.
