On 12 November, Mykola Lukashuk, Chairman of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Council, and Oleksandr Hanzha, Head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration, jointly chaired a meeting with Fatma Ceren Yazgan, Ambassador of Türkiye to Ukraine, and representatives of the Turkish-Ukrainian Industrialists and Businessmen Association.

Valentyna Zatyshniak, Director of the Dnipropetrovsk Investment Agency (DIA), represented the Agency and shared the Investment Guide of the region with the Turkish delegation. It gives companies a starting point for assessing where their expertise and investment plans could align with the region’s economic strengths and recovery needs.

There is already a strong business relationship to build on. In the first nine months of 2025, Türkiye was the region’s fourth-largest export market and second-largest source of imports. Goods exports from Dnipropetrovsk Region to Türkiye reached US$194.8 million. The region is also home to 56 companies with Turkish investment.

The discussion covered infrastructure reconstruction, energy resilience and support for hospitals and schools. For Turkish companies looking to invest or take part in recovery projects, DIA can help identify relevant opportunities, connect with local businesses and communities, and navigate the practical steps of developing a project in the region.

We thank Ambassador Yazgan and the Turkish business delegation for the visit and look forward to continuing the conversation with companies interested in working in Dnipropetrovsk Region.
