Uzbekistan's IT sector is opening up wide opportunities for international investors.
Uzbekistan is rapidly expanding support for youth startups and the information technology (IT) sector, creating new opportunities for international investors, particularly Chinese technology companies. The country's goal of increasing IT services exports to $5 billion by 2030 indicates the enormous potential in this sector.
The increase of the President Tech Awards prize fund to $5 million and the allocation of 2 billion soums to 40 top youth projects is an important step aimed at encouraging young talents. Expanding its activities, IT Park Uzbekistan welcomed 608 export-oriented companies and 297 companies with foreign capital participation in the first half of 2026. This led to the creation of over 3,000 new jobs.
Chinese investors and technology companies can benefit from this growth by entering Uzbekistan's rapidly developing IT market, investing in promising startups, and attracting highly qualified IT specialists. These steps by Uzbekistan in the IT sector serve to strengthen its position as a regional technology hub.
