The mechanism for supporting investment projects under the umbrella brand “Regional Initiative” is widely in demand by business. As of September 1, its list includes about 470 projects worth 9.4 billion rubles. The volume of investments for 2026 is about 2.6 billion rubles. At the same time, every third business idea received financing from banks and moved to the implementation stage.

The sectoral structure of the portfolio reflects development priorities. In particular, such production areas as the production of building materials, machinery and equipment, woodworking, food, pulp and paper and chemical industries dominate.

The development of tourism infrastructure is actively supported: there are more than 150 projects in this category.

“The first practical results have already been achieved: 20 projects have been implemented. New production of food products, products of chemical, machine-building, woodworking industries, electrical equipment, as well as 50 jobs have been created, the Ministry of Economy stressed.
