Bridging capital and reconstruction

The Challenge: Ukraine urgently needs infrastructure renewal, but municipalities often lack sufficient upfront funding. At the same time, international capital is interested in supporting recovery, yet faces barriers that complicate direct investment.

Our Solution: A leasing platform for municipalities, businesses, and donors that allows cities to access the necessary equipment and infrastructure immediately, with phased and comfortable financing transparently linked to EUR. This creates predictability for both municipalities and their partners.

The Innovation: Ukraine’s first leasing model for municipalities, businesses, and donors, created to attract private capital while working alongside donor and public programs. It enables scaling and long-term sustainability, allowing cities to modernize services quickly without large upfront costs.
