In brief

Construction of a factory for furniture company AMF is nearing completion in the industrial park "InPark Boryslav" in the Lviv region. Investments in this facility amount to more than $10 million. After full start-up the enterprise could provide jobs for about 800 workers, and the total area of the complex will reach 24,000 sq. m. Completion of the first phase is scheduled for summer 2026.

What exactly is being built

The first phase is a building of 10,000 sq. m; currently sandwich panels and roofing structures are being installed on the site. The height of the production premises will be 6 meters, and the storage areas 12 meters. Engineering networks have already been brought to the site; floor pouring and window installation are underway.

"This project is an example of investment confidence and job creation for the Boryslav‑Drohobych agglomeration."

— Dmytro Kysylevskyi, Member of Parliament, Deputy Chair of the Verkhovna Rada's Economic Committee

Infrastructure, incentives and expansion

The industrial park covers 20 hectares and has medium-pressure gas, centralized water supply and sewage, and a power substation with a capacity of 5 MW. Boryslav city council granted a land tax relief for 10 years: in the first three years the rate will be 0.25%, then a gradual increase to 2.1%. In 2026 another production-and-warehouse complex of 12,000 sq. m is planned on the site for small and medium businesses; the managing company offers premises from $420 per sq. m.

"One hectare of an industrial park can generate $7–10 million in annual turnover."

— Ministry of Economy of Ukraine

Impact on the region and the economy

The project strengthens local employment and logistics: workers are planned to be transported from settlements of the Boryslav‑Drohobych agglomeration (about 110,000 people). For the country, this is another example of large-scale investment in manufacturing during the war: industrial parks are already becoming one of the markers of investor confidence — as of February 2026, 113 industrial parks have been registered in Ukraine.

Timelines and key risks

Completion of construction of the first phase is expected in summer 2026. Converting the investment into stable production will depend on demand for furniture products, availability of qualified labor, and resilience of logistics chains. The existing infrastructure and tax incentives reduce some risks, but the final outcome will be determined by export opportunities and domestic demand.

Conclusion

This factory is not just a new building and machinery. It is an investment that tests a model of industrial recovery for the region: jobs, a multiplier effect for small and medium businesses, and potential for growth in export revenues. Now it is up to partners and the market — whether these investments turn into a sustained production cycle depends on demand, logistics, and continuation of incentive policies.

EU Against Google: Why the Latest Fine Could Change More Than Previous Ones

# European Regulators Target Google Again — This Time Over Digital Markets Act Violations. What's Behind the Accusations and Why It Matters Beyond the Corporation European regulators have renewed their scrutiny of Google, this time focusing on alleged violations of the Digital Markets Act. The charges underscore Brussels' increasingly aggressive stance on big tech monopolies and what officials say are anticompetitive practices. The accusations center on how Google leverages its dominance across multiple digital services — from search to advertising to mobile platforms — to disadvantage competitors. Regulators claim the company is using its market power in ways that stifle innovation and limit consumer choice. The case carries significance far beyond Google itself. It signals how the EU is attempting to enforce its landmark Digital Markets Act, legislation designed to curb the gatekeeping power of tech giants. A potential penalty could set precedent for how other large technology companies face similar scrutiny. For consumers and smaller tech firms, the outcome could reshape the digital landscape by creating more room for competition. For Google, fines and operational restrictions could fundamentally alter its business model in Europe, the world's most stringent regulatory market. The case also reflects a broader geopolitical divide, with the EU pursuing a regulatory approach that contrasts sharply with the lighter-touch oversight favored in the United States.
