The "Diia" platform offers an opportunity to receive financial support for starting a business focused on children's education, from nurseries to mini-kindergartens.

This is reported by the press service of "Diia".

It is noted that a grant of up to 500,000 UAH can be obtained without personal contributions. Individuals planning to engage in business activities under the classification code 85.10 are eligible.

For amounts between 500,000 and 1,000,000 UAH, funding is provided at a ratio of 70/30, where at least 30% must be your own funds. Grants are only available to individual entrepreneurs who have been registered for over a year.

Business owners already in the early childhood education sector or those planning to start a new venture can use 50% of the grant for repairs, materials, and equipment, while the remaining funds can be allocated for business development, according to "Diia".
