Areas of work and projects
In the initial phase of the Science Park鈥檚 development, the priority was focused on new and renewable energy sources, machine and instrumentation engineering, resource-saving technologies, microelectronics, telecommunications, improvement of chemical technologies, etc.
Over time, some areas have changed, especially after the full-scale invasion. Since its inception, SID City has supported the development of dual-use and medical projects, donating drones and other equipment.
