Uzbekistan aims to become a leader of digital innovation in Central Asia – research

Uzbekistan strives to take a leading position in the field of digital innovation in Central Asia, actively developing its infrastructure and technological capabilities. This is confirmed by the research conducted by IT Park in cooperation with the Ministry of Digital Technologies, the Ministry of Economy and Finance, the United Nations Development Program and Ernst & Young.

One of the key conclusions of the research was the stable growth of the information technology market in Uzbekistan, which exceeded the expectations of analysts. In recent years, the volume of exports of IT services and products from the country has increased significantly, which indicates the great potential of this industry.

Uzbekistan actively attracts foreign investment in the IT sector, providing tax incentives and other privileges for international companies. Such measures create a favorable environment for innovation and attract the attention of both local and foreign investors.

Promising opportunities for the development of the IT sector in Uzbekistan are also associated with the active development of educational programs. Uzbekistanʼs partners, including leading universities and educational institutions, contribute to the training of highly qualified specialists, maintaining a high level in the field of IT.

Local startups, incubators, accelerators and training centers play an important role in the development of youth entrepreneurship and innovation. Support from the government and the creation of favorable conditions make Uzbekistan an attractive place for the development of technology startups.

The research found a growing interest in new technologies such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, Internet of Things and cloud computing. Uzbekistan strives for the digital transformation of various sectors of the economy and public services, which opens up prospects for global IT companies seeking to develop in the heart of Central Asia.

The results of the research highlight Uzbekistanʼs determined efforts in the field of information technology and its desire to become a key center for innovation and development in the region. The explosive growth of the IT sector and the prospects for investors make Uzbekistan an attractive place to invest in the countryʼs rapidly developing digital market.
