The event was organized as part of preparations for the sixth open dialogue between the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan and entrepreneurs. The meeting focused on identifying current challenges and developing initiatives to improve the business environment and accelerate the growth of the technology sector.

During the discussions, participants reviewed business needs and expectations related to the launch of the Enterprise Uzbekistan International Digital Technology Center. The parties also considered proposals to enhance the IT Visa framework for foreign specialists, including simplifying procedures for obtaining IT Cards and extending their validity periods.

Particular attention was given to strengthening support mechanisms for resident companies operating in the regions. Representatives proposed expanding the scope of the Incentives program (formerly Zero Risk) to cover expenses related to online training delivered by international mentors, as well as the costs of professional training programs conducted within Uzbekistan.

Participants also discussed the implementation of the GPU Cluster project and the establishment of electronic board manufacturing in Uzbekistan in accordance with Presidential Resolution No. PQ-189. These initiatives are expected to reduce import dependence, strengthen local production capacity, and lower operating costs for businesses.

In addition, company representatives raised a number of issues related to the development of digital infrastructure. Discussions focused on improving the reliability of data storage systems, expanding access to international platforms and data centers, and providing startups with greater access to computing resources and financial instruments offered by global data center operators.

Following the meeting, the proposals put forward by participants will be further refined and incorporated into a package of initiatives to be presented during the upcoming dialogue between the Head of State and entrepreneurs.

Such meetings enable IT Park Uzbekistan to maintain direct engagement with resident companies, promptly identify business needs, and formulate practical proposals aimed at supporting the continued development of the IT industry. This dialogue format contributes to enhancing support measures, improving the business climate, and strengthening the competitiveness of Uzbekistan’s technology sector.
