In a landmark moment for Moldova’s business and medical tourism sectors, the Summa Group and FIBA Group have officially broken ground on a major new mixed-use complex in Chișinău. The €40 million project, announced at a ceremony held at Endava Tower, will bring two Marriott International hotel brands — Moxy Hotels and Residence Inn by Marriott — alongside the state-of-the-art Medpark City Clinic.
The groundbreaking ceremony was attended by government officials, members of the diplomatic corps, and representatives from Summa, FIBA Group, and Marriott International. The event opened with a presentation of the architectural concept, followed by an official session of remarks highlighting the strategic importance of the project in strengthening Chișinău’s position on the regional map of business and medical tourism.
A New Era for Hospitality in Moldova
The project marks a new stage in the development of the Marriott International brand in the Moldovan market. Moxy Hotels, designed for the young generation, brings a modern experience focused on technology and contemporary design. Meanwhile, Residence Inn by Marriott introduces a new concept to the market, dedicated to guests interested in extended stays — a particularly attractive option for business travelers and medical tourists visiting Moldova.
Medpark City Clinic: A Next-Generation Medical Hub
Perhaps the most significant component of the complex is Medpark City Clinic, which will be directly connected to the infrastructure of Medpark International Hospital — the only private medical institution in the Republic of Moldova accredited by Joint Commission International (JCI). The clinic will deliver comprehensive care and exclusive medical services, integrating advanced medical specialties, high-quality care standards, international expertise, and specialists with European and global certifications.
Boosting Moldova’s Investment Appeal
The launch of this project reinforces the Republic of Moldova’s growing investment appeal, demonstrating a market that is increasingly competitive and capable of attracting high-profile international investors. The complex is scheduled to be commissioned in the first half of 2028, and is expected to create hundreds of jobs during construction and operation.
This development comes at a time when Moldova is experiencing increased international attention, with the country recently opening EU accession negotiations and attracting over €1 billion in investment commitments at the Moldova-EU Investment Conference held in Chișinău.
What This Means for Business and Tourism
The arrival of internationally recognized hotel brands and a world-class medical facility signals growing confidence in Moldova’s economy and its potential as a regional hub. For the local workforce, the project represents opportunities in hospitality, healthcare, and construction sectors. For visitors, it means access to internationally standardized services in the heart of Chișinău.
As Moldova continues its path toward European integration and economic development, projects like the Summa-FIBA-Marriott complex serve as tangible proof that the country is open for business and ready to compete on the international stage.
