In Poltava region, more than three hundred entrepreneurs have received grants from the state to start or develop businesses (VIDEO)

Іnhabitants of Poltava Oblast actively participate in the state program called "eRobota." Thanks to the government's support, they can receive essential grant funding for establishing or developing their own businesses. In Poltava Oblast, 341 entrepreneurs have already taken advantage of the opportunity to obtain a grant from the government, as reported by the Poltava Regional Military Administration.

The head of the Poltava Regional Military Administration, Dmytro Lunin, emphasizes that the state initiative is a great opportunity for those entrepreneurs who wish to start their own business or expand an existing one. As an example, they tell the story of a Poltava clinic specialized in neurology and kinesiotherapy. The clinic provides assistance to people with musculoskeletal disorders who are recovering from injuries.

Having received the grant from the government, the owner of the clinic was able to purchase the necessary medical equipment and expand the range of services offered to the residents of Poltava and the surrounding region.

The clinic is owned by neurologist Dr. Katerina Popova. She discovered information about the "eRobota" program through the "Diia" mobile application. There, she learned about the opportunity to obtain a microgrant from the government. Dr. Popova submitted an application and provided a detailed business plan, specifying the required equipment for conducting rehabilitation.

After receiving the grant, the clinic set up a hall and acquired exercise equipment, fitballs, and fit rolls. They also established physiotherapy and massage rooms.

Dr. Katerina Popova emphasized that without this equipment, they would not have been able to provide assistance to the majority of their patients. The grant enabled them to improve the quality of care and expand their services for the benefit of the community.
