Background

Within EU4Environment , UNEP, the EU, and the Organization for Entrepreneurship Development (ODA) assisted eight SMEs in the Republic of Moldova in developing new business strategies/models that are aligned with the eco-innovation approach. The companies represent priority sectors identified through a market and policy assessment of the eco-innovation landscape in the Republic of Moldova, developed by ODA in collaboration with UNEP. Based on the analysis of sector-specific statistics, as well as existing policy documents, two sectors were identified as most promising to upscale eco-innovation measures among Moldovan SMEs, namely a) Agriculture; and b) Industry. Following a national call for SMEs from these sectors interested in developing the eco-innovation approach, eight SMEs were selected to receive advisory services from ODA and UNEP. The companies are SOFDAR, ROMANIȚA, MACOVEI TEXTILE, CHERANG, ȘALTOIANCA, FAMILIA MEA, JAVGURVIN GROUP and VINDICUM – representatives of which will be present throughout this event.
