Cross-Border Cooperation

Our Cross-Border Co-operation team is committed to the idea that increased commercial activity will transform the rather dormant economic climate of Ungheni into a dynamic frontier market full of opportunities.

The UBSC wishes to capitalise on increased business and donor interest in this geographically positioned city by establishing itself as a Centre for Cross-Border Cooperation Resources and Expertise. We have already established close working links with the Chambers of Commerce and Industry on both sides of the frontier and closely work together with the Moldovan Export Promotion Organisation.

Today, the UBSC is involved in a number of CBC activities with Romanian counterparts within the framework of joint projects financed by donor community.
Our mission is to provide technical expertise in the following areas:

• Export Promotion
• Trade Fairs and Business Match-making
• International Trade Events
• Investment Promotion

The following implemented activities were supported by the EU/TACIS Cross Border Cooperation Project in 2003-2004. As a result of the below-mentioned missions, Romanian companies have subcontracted Moldovan products at a value of approx. $7.000.000,00. The contracts were monitored and supervised by UBSC and Moldovan Export Promotion Organisation:
