Advancing Commerce, Connectivity, and Exports Leading to Economic Readiness for Accession to the EU “ACCELERATE”

The USAID Bureau for Europe and Eurasia (E&E), through its Technical Support Office, Economic Growth Division, is establishing the Advancing Commerce, Connectivity, and Exports Leading to Economic Readiness for Accession to the EU "ACCELERATE." The purpose of this Activity is to mobilize enterprise-driven solutions that increase trade and investment in the Europe and Eurasia region, with a focus on enhancing economic readiness for accession to the European Union (EU).

The Activity aims to strengthen markets in the E&E region by developing new trade and investment relationships, particularly between the U.S. and the E&E region, and achieve development outcomes across all sectors in line with USAID's Private Sector Engagement Policy. ACCELERATE will focus on four main objectives:

  1. Improved trade facilitation both within the E&E region and with the EU
  2. Increased access to finance by way of introducing regional alternative financial products and services
  3. Increased support to the public and private sectors to comply with EU requirements and standards
  4. Increased stakeholder support to improve investment transparency so that investments have a greater development impact.
