Moldova launches Export Platform, a digital tool for export development
The Moldovan Investment Agency, in partnership with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), has launched the Export Platform, a digital tool designed to support domestic companies in entering foreign markets and strengthening their export potential. The platform is available on the government website www.invest.gov.md/export and brings together in a single online space all the resources and information necessary for the promotion and development of national exports. The platform was developed by the Investment Agency with technical and financial support from Sweden, the United Kingdom, and UNDP as part of the project “Developing Export Capacities on the Banks of the Dniester” (AdTrade). The platform provides companies with up-to-date information on international events, trade missions, exporter support programs, grants for business associations, and relevant market research, all in a convenient and accessible format. As noted by Natalia Bejan, Director of the Moldovan Investment Agency, the Export Platform is designed for exporting companies in Moldova, providing them with transparent access to projects, research, grants, databases, and information about public and private organizations that can support them or with which they can establish partnerships. This centralized tool is designed to strengthen the capacity of export operators and promote the development of a more interconnected and competitive economy. The launch of the Export Platform is part of the Investment Agency's broader strategy to digitally support the business environment and raise Moldova's profile as an attractive destination for investment and international trade. Additional tools developed by the Investment Agency in partnership with UNDP and the European Union include an Interactive Investment Map, available in Romanian and English, which provides detailed information on the socio-economic potential of each region, investment opportunities, available human resources, and industry profiles. The library of investment profiles and projects is constantly updated and already includes 41 profiles focused on the circular economy, green technologies, and responsible consumption, developed for the Cahul and Ungheni regions. With the support of the Swiss government and UNDP, the Investment Agency is developing investment profiles for six key sectors: IT and creative industries, business process outsourcing, medical and social services, tourism and hospitality, agriculture and agricultural processing, and industrial real estate. All these analytical products contribute to the promotion of priority economic sectors, the utilization of regional potential, and the enhancement of Moldova's visibility as a competitive and reliable place for investment. Previously, UNDP provided technical support in developing investment proposals for partners in the Middle East, identifying sectors with high competitive potential and areas of interest to regional investors. The data analysis methodology developed can be used by the Investment Agency to prepare other proposals targeting the markets of Southeast Asia and Latin America. // 17.10.2025 — InfoMarket.
