and Andriy Pidhainyi, Partner at the law firm Arzinger, presented a practical analysis of investment project financing in communities, focusing on public-private partnerships (PPP), municipal bonds, and international aid. Participants explored the ongoing reform of public investment management and learned about key institutional requirements necessary to access financing. Niko Gachechiladze, Head of the PPP Agency, joined the dynamic discussions, emphasizing that international funds have already been allocated for the preparation phase of state and municipal projects aimed at boosting both investment attractiveness and institutional capacity.
