More than 20 thousand Tatarstan citizens used free services for business development

Business assistance is provided by the Ministry of Economy of the Republic of Tatarstan and its subordinate organizations under the national project "Efficient and Competitive Economy".

Tatarstan's small and medium-sized businesses have access to a range of non-financial services that cover the entire business development cycle, from the start of a project to the launch of an enterprise on foreign markets.

For republican businesses, this is an opportunity to participate in regional and international exhibitions and fairs, certification and product promotion, professional development of employees, assistance in entering marketplaces, as well as educational and consulting support, including adaptation to tax changes. 

Special attention in the republic is paid to small and medium-sized manufacturing companies, small technology companies (STC) and entrepreneurs operating in priority sectors of the economy, such as industry, agriculture, information technology, scientific research and tourism.

In 2025, more than 100 manufacturers and STC were provided with assistance in certification, advertising and product promotion, professional development of employees, as well as participation in exhibition and fair events in the territory of the Russian Federation.

Also, in order to raise awareness and promptly obtain full information about the support available in the Republic for small businesses, a Single Contact Center (SCC) was established in Tatarstan in February last year on the basis of the Foundation for Entrepreneurship Support of the Republic of Tatarstan.

As of the end of 2025, the SCC has processed more than 5,600 applications from entrepreneurs and individuals. Most often, businesses apply for non-financial and financial support measures, as well as tax advice.

The SCC in Tatarstan operates on a one-stop-shop basis. Its specialists provide advice on government programs for entrepreneurs and other issues related to doing business. Requests received through different communication channels are processed and distributed among the operators. Users can get answers to common questions on their own on federal and republican business support portals SME.RF and the My Business Center of the Republic of Tatarstan, via chatbots and on social networks.
