Cyprus will proceed with rapid and decisive steps in the green and digital transition, said the Minister of Agriculture, Rural Development and Environment, Costas Kadis, welcoming the presentation of the Strovolos Green and Digital Entrepreneurship Centre and congratulating the participants for this initiative, which he hoped would become an example to follow.

Mr. Kadis noted that the main objective of the Centre, which operates in cooperation with the Cyprus International Institute of Management, "is the development of sustainable entrepreneurship, through the support of entrepreneurs [...] for a smooth and fast transition of their businesses to the green and digital economy".

He went on to explain that the Centre is expected to offer specialised tools and programmes to develop knowledge and skills for promoting green entrepreneurship, for wider use and exploitation of electronic information, and for more massive participation of businesses in European and other funding programmes.

"The objectives that have been set in the design and operation of the Centre are fully in line with the broader objective of the Ministry of Agriculture, Rural Development and Environment, for a modern, circular and competitive economy, with zero greenhouse gas emissions and sustainable use of natural resources", Mr. The Ministry's aim is for businesses to make targeted investments in the areas of waste management, reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and environmental protection, making maximum use of European and national funding.

"Our country, through both the National Plan "Cyprus Tomorrow" and the Recovery and Resilience Plan, will proceed with rapid and decisive steps in the green and digital transition, taking advantage of the prospects offered by the good state of our economy, despite the successive crises it has faced," the Minister concluded.
