The "EU Innovative Action for Private Sector Competitiveness in Georgia" is a joint initiative of the European Union and four UN Agencies - United Nation Development Programme (UNDP), the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (UN FAO), United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) and the International Organization for Migration (IOM).

The overall objective of the proposed UN Joint Programme (UNJP) is: to enhance entrepreneurship and business sophistication by strengthening the capacities of government and local entities to develop and operate clusters and supporting companies directly with strategic investments and better connect to diaspora groups, while also demonstrating the effectiveness of these strategies to businesses. 

This will be achieved through support to a range of entities in developing specific clusters for the benefit of enhancing geographically constrained value chains for improving cluster coordination, marketing, innovation, public private dialogue and more. It will also be done through strategic investments in companies that are deemed necessary to facilitate improvements in the cluster. This will also be enhanced by a sustained effort to consolidate evidence-base, clustering-related policy and implementation capacities and connect local businesses to diaspora communities, for the purpose of knowledge and technology transfer and financing.
