The boom in components production continues apace with several existing investors opening new production facilities and new entrants also setting up manufacturing facilities. It is estimated that €500 million has been invested to date in 38 factories, which together employ more than 60,000 workers.
The programme will include case studies and discussion panels featuring the leading parts producers operating in Ukraine. Other topics that will be high up the agenda include:
- The development of an automotive supplier cluster in Ukraine – progress made, key goals and how it will be organised
- Opportunities for Ukraine to become a major player in the production of electric vehicles and components
- The role of industrial and technology parks in developing the infrastructure to support the growth of the Ukrainian automotive sector
- Focus on priority requirements: state support, infrastructure, logistics, education, wage levels
