As a result the best practices of Israel seem most suitable for Ukraine. The methods of assessing the regions investment attractiveness are also described and adopted to evaluate the investment potential of the Dnipropetrovsk region. Nowadays, Dnipropetrovsk region is still the leader among the other Ukrainian regions in the production of industrial products and less suffered from the war than the other regions.
