The Ministry of Economy reports on available measures and support tools for small and medium-sized businesses

I sincerely congratulate you on your professional holiday! Your work plays a key role in the sustainable development of the republic, becoming the foundation for the implementation of the most ambitious projects and initiatives.

As of the beginning of 2025, more than 110,000 individual entrepreneurs are operating in Tatarstan, of which about 46,000 are women. Over 142 thousand women are registered as self-employed in Tatarstan. The activity of the female population in business is facilitated by government support measures implemented, among other things, within the framework of the national project "Efficient and Competitive Economy" and federal projects within it. 

Since 2023, Russia has been operating a program of preferential loans secured by intellectual property. Today, access to financing is provided for entrepreneurs from Moscow and the Republic of Tatarstan. To date, Moscow citizens have received more than 1.13 billion rubles, and Tatarstan representatives, who started at the end of 2024, have already consolidated five loans worth 40 million rubles secured by patents and trademarks. 

On March 6, 2025, the fourth meeting of the Expert Council on conducting an experiment to establish special regulation aimed at creating conditions for partnership financing activities under the Government of the Russian Federation was held.
