Press releases

29 October 2026, Chisinau — The Organisation for Entrepreneurship Development (ODA) informs the business community that the call for applications for non-repayable financial support, planned for 2 November 2026, is postponed until identified cybersecurity vulnerabilities at national level are remedied.

The decision is of a preventive nature and is driven by the need to ensure a secure and reliable digital environment for the submission and processing of applications for funding, as well as the protection of the data and interests of applicants. In the same context, since 28 October 2026, the e-cabinet platform has been under a temporary maintenance regime. The work of the platform will resume once the technical checks are completed.

ODA shall undertake, in cooperation with the responsible institutions, the necessary measures to ensure the security and functionality of the information systems used in the application process.

The new call launch date will be set and publicly communicated once it is confirmed that the necessary conditions for the safe application process have been met. We urge entrepreneurs to follow the official ODA page for updated information on the resumption of the call.

The ODA has also examined the requests and proposals made by business representatives on the grant application mechanism and is in the process of reviewing the submission procedure, with a view to improving the accessibility and fairness of the process. Further information on the envisaged changes will be communicated at a later stage via the institution’s official channels.

We understand the importance of this call for entrepreneurs and regret the inconveniences created. We are committed to ensuring fair and transparent access to funding opportunities for businesses, as well as the continuity of support measures for the development of entrepreneurship.

During maintenance and after resuming the work of the e-cabinet platform, please remain vigilant to possible fraudulent messages that could use the ODA name. 

ODA specialists shall not request authentication data, passwords, confirmation codes or bank details by email, telephone, SMS or messaging applications.

The official communication of the institution is made exclusively from email addresses ending in @oda so far. Carefully check the sender’s address, as counterfeits may differ from the official one by a single character.

The Entrepreneurship Development Organisation is the public institution founded by the Ministry of Economic Development and Digitalisation. ODA implements programmes and instruments to support the development of entrepreneurship and facilitates access to finance for micro, small and medium-sized enterprises.
