Uzbekistan continues to strengthen its presence on the global IT stage. Growing international interest and the expansion of local companies into foreign markets reflect the country’s emergence as a dynamic technological hub. A significant indicator of this progress is the addition of 132 new export-oriented companies into the IT Park Uzbekistan resident ecosystem during March and April 2025 alone.
During this two-month period, 132 export-oriented companies were granted member status, including 56 entities with foreign capital participation. The geographical distribution of international investors includes the United States, Japan, Canada, France, Norway, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, New Zealand, Spain, and Italy. Collectively, the new member companies intend to create 1,639 new jobs within their first year of operation, thereby contributing to the growth of Uzbekistan’s high-tech sector and the development of a skilled workforce.
In Uzbekistan’s regions, 49 export-oriented companies received member status, including 25 with foreign capital. According to their business plans, these regional companies aim to create over 500 new jobs and deliver IT service exports exceeding $9 million.
