THE ROLE OF TECHNOLOGICAL AND INDUSTRIAL PARKS DURING MARITAL STATE IN UKRAINE

Abstract

Technology and industrial parks have become especially important for ensuring economic stability and national defense in the context of the introduction of martial law in Ukraine after the full-scale armed invasion of the russian federation from February 2022 until today. The purpose of the article is to study the role of technological and industrial parks during the martial law in Ukraine. In particular, this paper examines the important role played by technology and industrial parks in Ukraine during the imposition of martial law following a full-scale russian invasion in February 2022. The article analyzes in detail the activities of these parks during the war, as well as the challenges they faced and the measures taken by the state to support them.

Using such legal methods as formal-legal, comparative-legal, statistical, logical, the authors analyze how the activity of these parks supports the economy and the defense capability of the country in wartime. Despite the hostilities, most of these parks continue to operate and serve foreign customers. This helps maintain the inflow of foreign currency into the country and maintain employment. The article also highlights the activities of industrial enterprises in industrial parks. Some companies in industrial parks have revised their production due to national security needs. This helped them meet the urgent needs of the armed forces under martial law.

Also, in this article, state support measures for technology parks and industrial zones under martial law are considered separately. They include simplified regulatory procedures and tax incentives. Such support is important for maintaining the potential of industrial parks. In general, based on the analysis, the authors conclude that technological and industrial parks are strategically important for ensuring the economic, technological and defense security of Ukraine in the conditions of a long war with the aggressor country. The activities of technological and industrial parks require comprehensive state support for the maximum use of their potential for the benefit of Ukraine.
