More than 250 business representatives took part in the business forum “Made in Moldova – Internationally Competitive,” held in Chisinau on February 12
The event was organized by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Moldova (CCI) to strengthen economic cooperation and support the internationalization process of Moldovan companies. The forum was held as part of the business program of the national exhibition “Made in Moldova” and was organized in partnership with the Moldovan Investment Agency on the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) platform as part of the CONNECT Moldova–EU project, co-financed by the European Union. The event brought together more than 250 representatives of the business community, government agencies, and support organizations from Moldova, Romania, Ukraine, Lithuania, and Israel, confirming the growing interest in developing regional partnerships and expanding economic cooperation. At the official opening of the forum, CCI Moldova President Sergiu Harea noted that Moldova is a reliable and dynamic economic partner, connected to European networks and open to regional cooperation. Through the Enterprise Europe Network and the Connect Moldova–EU project, concrete support is provided to small and medium-sized enterprises in the process of innovation, digitalization, and entry into foreign markets. “Made in Moldova” means competitiveness, quality, and trust—and our mission is to turn these assets into sustainable partnerships and investments that generate economic growth,” said the President of the CCI. Minister of Economic Development and Digitalization Eugen Osmochescu also spoke at the forum, confirming the government's commitment to ensuring a stable and predictable business environment. He noted that the Moldovan government is a partner to the business community and a supporter of clear, transparent, and predictable rules. Moldova's European path is a strategic priority for the coming years and can only be achieved through effective cooperation between the authorities and the private sector. “Economic growth, forecast at around 3% in 2025, confirms that reforms and joint efforts are bringing concrete results,” he said. Other speeches touched upon the strategic priorities for the region's economic development, as well as opportunities for establishing new partnerships in the field of investment and exports in the regional and European context. The event program included a presentation of Moldova's investment climate and tools available to investors, digital solutions to accelerate local business development with a focus on innovation and market access, as well as specific opportunities for cooperation through delegations from chambers of commerce and the business community of participating countries. The forum provided an important platform for: presenting investment opportunities and mechanisms available to investors; promoting digital solutions and company modernization processes; initiating trade and investment partnerships; and strengthening regional economic ties. The central element of the event was B2B meetings, during which Moldovan companies had the opportunity to communicate directly with delegations of businesspeople from Romania, Ukraine, and Lithuania, establish commercial contacts, and explore new areas of cooperation in sectors such as agriculture, industry, trade, services, and digitalization. // 12.02.2026 — InfoMarket
