As part of implementation of the National Project “Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises and Support of Individual Entrepreneurship Initiatives”, the “My Business” Center was established in 2019. Since the beginning of 2020, the Center has provided more than 6,100 services. During the period of quarantine measures, the Center continued to support both individuals and entrepreneurs, but already in terms of issues related to anti-crisis measures. Also, for quick adaptation of the business to current conditions, online master classes are organized where entrepreneurs receive practical skills to overcome the crisis.

In 2019, more than 28 thousand individuals and entrepreneurs used the center's services. Whereas, in the first 4 months of 2020, the My Business Center provided more than 6,100 services, including for more than 429 self-employed.

Today, more than a hundred services are available to entrepreneurs.

In particular, “My Business” finances the expenses of entrepreneurs on an advertising campaign to promote products in the amount of up to 300,000 rubles, as well as obtaining permits, such as a certificate of conformity, a declaration of conformity, and others up to 700,000 rubles.
