With the Ukraine Reconstruction Forum, we are once again establishing a central platform for dialogue and networking. The reconstruction of Ukraine is of the utmost priority for Austria and the European Union. This task of solidarity opens up significant opportunities for our business location and export industry – while at the same time enabling us to make a decisive contribution to stability, growth, and European solidarity.

Austrian expertise is in demand worldwide, particularly in the future market of Ukraine. Austria will accompany Ukraine on this path with full commitment and will continue to strengthen close cooperation between politics, business, and financial institutions – ensuring that Austrian companies are at the forefront from the very beginning.
