Emilewicz: Polish SEZs could launch operations in western Ukraine

Lviv will choose a company to manage its new industrial park being developed in the city. Poland sees this and other economic zone projects in western Ukraine as an opportunity for Polish Special Economic Zones (SSE). The Lviv City Council has decided to create a municipal industrial park on a 30-hectare plot. The concept for the park was developed in collaboration with the Kyiv School of Economics and was consulted under the UK Aid program by the UK government.

The city has already invested €5 million in preparation. Lviv plans to select an external company through a tender to manage the new park, particularly focusing on industries like high technology, automotive, electromobility, and the medical sector. The winning company will lease the entire area for 50 years. Polish SSE, such as the Krakow Technology Park, could potentially be involved in managing the park. The collaboration envisions broader consulting and advisory services for building new public economic zones in Ukraine and potentially establishing joint ventures in the future.
