"We continue to communicate with the business, so that the program will really work on a large scale, " said the Head of Government.
In addition, the size of the grant will now be tied to the need to create a certain number of jobs. Changes have also affected the microgrants program in terms of encouraging small farms.
"We are expanding the areas for which the money can be spent. Now it is the purchase of raw materials, supplies, animals, software and other services and goods related to production, "- said Denis Shmigal.
According to Prime Minister, 6.5 thousand applications have already been received for grants to establish or expand existing businesses under the project "eRobot".
"6 thousand applications have been received for micro grants up to 250 thousand hryvnias. 100 applications are for creating new greenhouses and new gardens. More than 400 applications - under the program of creating new processing enterprises. All of this in the next few months will be converted into thousands of jobs, "- Head of the Government stressed.
Prime Minister stressed that such a large number of applications during the first month of the programme showed that people are interested in creating their own businesses in Ukraine: "The state will help in this, because the private sector is the foundation of a strong and sustainable economy.
