Kick-Off Webinar: How to Do Business in Ukraine
Webinar by Business Sweden
Business Sweden conducted a high-impact webinar for Swedish companies that officially launched the new business season in Ukraine. We highlighted priority market needs, emerging opportunities, and presented hands-on strategies to navigate ongoing challenges for companies active in or entering the Ukrainian market.
In addition, during the webinar Business Sweden presented the "Ukraine Business Climate Survey 2025", which offers critical insights into how Swedish companies are navigating the complex landscape, what they see as key opportunities, and where they encounter challenges - from customs and regulation to infrastructure and financial access.
During the webinar, the Swedish pavilion at ReBuild Ukraine was presented. On 13–14 November 2025, the 5th International Exhibition & Conference “ReBuild Ukraine: Construction & Energy” will take place in Warsaw, Poland. It is a prime platform to meet Ukrainian ministries, municipalities, and procurement agencies and to showcase Swedish solutions across construction, energy, infrastructure, and green tech.
