[UK Unveils First Dedicated Business Centre in Kyiv to Strengthen Industrial Ties]
The UK’s first dedicated business centre for industry in Ukraine has now opened, granting companies a permanent presence in Kyiv to deepen strategic partnership with a key ally.
The Kyiv Business Centre (KBC) emerges as the city’s inaugural industry‑focused hub, born from tight collaboration among the National Armaments Director Group, leading industrial partners and the finance sector, evidencing the sustained support supplied under the 100‑Year Partnership.
The KBC provides UK businesses—especially small and medium‑sized enterprises—to construct durable relationships with local counterparts, gain battlefield insight and engage in joint development, co‑production and investment endeavors.
previously, formidable costs, strict security measures and intricate administrative hurdles had rendered entry into Ukraine unsustainable for many smaller firms.
Britain has stood firmly with Ukraine since the first days of Russia’s illegal invasion, and with the Kyiv Business Centre now open, we are helping to unlock new opportunities for investment, growth and long‑term recovery.
By supporting UK companies in Kyiv, we are deepening the 100‑Year Partnership and turning our shared resolve into shared innovation.

This new facility is not just a centre; it’s a permanent gateway transforming the UK’s ability to collaborate meaningfully with our Ukrainian partners now, and for the long term.
Until now the costs, security considerations and other restrictions created by Russia’s full‑scale invasion have made it difficult for firms, especially smaller firms, to work in Ukraine.
Our previous Trade Missions successfully addressed some of those challenges – this centre breaks down those barriers, giving UK firms a permanent centre in Kyiv embedding real opportunities for innovation, investment and export.

With over 40 major UK‑Ukraine industrial collaborations already underway, the KBC extends that network and supports Ukrainian firms seeking UK partners or establishing based entities.
