description Cognizant of the instrumental role infrastructure plays in the underpinning of international competitiveness, Moldova's public custodians have been actively marshalling resources and investment into the augmentation of critical infrastructure components, particularly in the spheres of transportation and telecommunications. This empirical inquiry assumes a bifocal purpose: firstly, to delineate the prevailing contours of Moldova's international competitiveness, along with the attendant challenges; and secondly, to proffer a comprehensive assessment of the efficacy of the government's provisioning of infrastructure and ancillary services in catalyzing heightened competitiveness among commercial entities while expediting their internationalization endeavours. The methodological approach adopted for this study seamlessly interweaves quantitative and qualitative research methodologies, harnessing an amalgamation of national and international statistical data, scholarly research, official publications, and insights culled from a comprehensive business survey conducted in the year 2022. Preliminary findings emanating from this research endeavour cast light upon the Republic of Moldova's modest progress in its pursuit of heightened international competitiveness, underscoring concurrent governmental efforts to assist commercial enterprises in surmounting critical challenges that have impeded strides in productivity augmentation, competitive acumen, and crisis resilience.
