Uzbekistan is steadily moving towards modernisation and becoming one of the main centres of attraction for investment in the Central Asian region. Thus, the IV Tashkent International Investment Forum became an important event not only for the region but also for the global investment community.
The main achievement of the forum was the signing of investment agreements totalling $30.5 billion. This figure is convincing evidence of the trust placed in Uzbekistan by international financial institutions and business circles. Uzbekistan has confirmed its reputation as a reliable and promising partner with transparent economic policies, a favourable investment climate and clear strategic priorities.
The forum also served as a platform for presenting successful reforms in the banking sector, energy, digitalisation, logistics and agriculture. Particular attention was paid to issues of sustainable development, the green economy and enhancing the role of the private sector.
Overall, the organisation of this Forum demonstrated the high level of professionalism and strategic thinking of the country's leadership, aimed at transforming Uzbekistan into a key investment platform in Central Asia. The Tashkent Investment Forum not only strengthened Uzbekistan's position on the global economic map, but also became a symbol of openness, dynamism and foresight in the country's policies.
