As part of the Ukraine Recovery Conference (URC2025), the PwC Ukraine team, together with Italian colleagues and with the support of the Ministry for Development of Communities and Territories of Ukraine, organized a high-level exclusive event to explore opportunities for Public-Private Partnership and Regional Development.
The event brought together over 200 participants, including representatives of the Ukrainian government, regional authorities, international businesses, investors, and international donor organisations to engage in dialogue on the needs of communities, recent reforms, opportunities for public-private partnerships, and investment-ready projects.
“Despite the devastation in Ukraine, it’s really encouraging to see that there remains strong support from both the public and private sectors to rebuild Ukraine so that it is stronger, smarter and more resilient than ever before”
Alona Shkrum, First Deputy Minister for Development of Communities and Territories of Ukraine, presented the key provisions of the new PPP draft law, which was recently adopted by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine. She emphasised the importance of creating a transparent and predictable investment environment for international partners and implementing a decentralised approach to regional project implementation:
“Our goal is to ensure clear, transparent, and stable rules of the game for investors. The new law on public-private partnership will open more opportunities for businesses to participate in local projects — where these investments are needed most,”
Municipal leaders, representatives of regional councils, and international financial institutions presented flagship regional projects for implementation on the basis of the PPP model — particulary in te areas of water supply and healthcare — including:
- Modernization of water supply and wastewater systems in Truskavets and Dnipro,
- Construction of a new municipal hospital in Zhytomyr.
One of the projects showcased the use of the internationally recognized 'Five Case Model' (5CM), a structured approach for developing robust business cases. Key features of the 5CM have been adopted under the PIM reforms and will support the development of high-quality public investment projects in Ukraine.
Our great thanks to the Ukrainian government, FCDO, Green Cities, Infrastructure and Energy Programme), UNECE, and International Finance Corporation For supporting the event and project presentations.
Participants had the opportunity to discuss effective investment policies, risks, procedures, and models of cooperation, as well as establish direct contacts with the project teams.
For PwC Ukraine, supporting recovery is more than professional expertise. It is a conscious contribution to a shared mission of building a resilient and modernised Ukraine — open to partnerships, focused on sustainability, and committed to progress. We strive to be a reliable partner in this process.
