The private partners include multinational companies, IBM and Microsoft, and also Moldovan Association of Private ICT Companies (ATIC) members that are local (operated) ICT companies. The private partners bring significant new resources, ideas, software, technologies and development activities, such as pieces of training, practical assignments, and mentorship. The private sector partners will have the chance to use the centre to communicate with the university, SMEs, startups, professionals and contribute to the curricula improvement answering the market needs, as well as the improvement of the IT and entrepreneurship ecosystem that will lead to the economic growth of the country. The Government of Moldova supports this project at the highest level of the Prime Minister, and the partners include the Ministry of ICT, Ministry of Education, and E-Government Center.

General overview of entrepreneurship in Moldova: Startup Moldova
Moldova’s entrepreneurial ecosystem is emerging, although it has made significant progress compared to 10 years ago, our country still has much unexplored potential, amid a lack of entrepreneurial culture, limited access to finance, as well as experience in managing its own product-based business.

In order to reduce the gap and encourage the development of startups based on information technologies, the Republic of Moldova aligns with international trends and implements programs dedicated to growing and supporting startup businesses.
One of them is the Startup Moldova National Program – an initiative that gives the young people with innovative ideas access to educational programs, infrastructure, consulting, mentoring, opportunities to connect to international events and competitions, as well as attracting funding sources.

Specific Objectives

The entrepreneurship activities will focus on institutional development and fortification of the Startup Moldova concept, development and deployment of entrepreneurial education programs; implementation of general and vertically-driven initiatives, implementation and supporting community initiatives, facilitation for bringing all stakeholders together, mapping ecosystem players, and supporting entrepreneurial innovation, forming and developing a local talent pool and attracting foreign expertise, addressing the talent gap by reconversion mechanisms and entrepreneurial education opportunities and directly support startups in their needs. Tekwill will support the e-commerce agenda by adjusting its programs towards inclusive digitization initiatives.
