Visit of International Experts to the Ovi-Caprin Cluster Cimișlia-Basarabeasca

As part of the Sustainable Entrepreneurship in Moldova (SusMo) project, we had the pleasure of welcoming experts Gerd Meier zu Köcker from RegioClusterAgency and Silke Schmidt, an expert in Social Sustainability. Their visit focused on exploring opportunities to develop sustainable entrepreneurship and enhance the competitiveness of farmers within our cluster.
Discussions centered on leveraging the cluster’s potential by promoting sustainable businesses, identifying solutions for sustainable growth in agri-food production, and supporting small producers in integrating circular economy principles.
During the visit, the experts had the opportunity to closely observe the activities of local businesses within the cluster, including GT Bilba Vasile from Valea Perjei and GT Caproșu Alexandru from Dimitrovca. Here, they engaged with farmers to discuss the challenges and opportunities in the livestock sector, exchanging ideas on applicable European best practices.
This is just the first step in a promising collaboration, as the Ovi-Caprin Cluster aims to become a model for sustainable development in the agri-food sector in Moldova.
We will continue this partnership through concrete actions and initiatives that help farmers adopt more efficient and sustainable business models.
