Uzbekistan and Qatar signed an agreement to enhance collaboration in information technology, the digital economy, and innovation. The agreement was formalized during a meeting between Uzbekistan’s Ministry of Digital Technologies and Sheikh Ali Al-Walid Al-Thani, CEO of Invest Qatar.
The discussions focused on training IT specialists, creating international employment opportunities, supporting local startups, and advancing Uzbekistan’s IT sector. Invest Qatar, established in 2019, plays a key role in attracting foreign investments to Qatar and supporting its economic growth.
This agreement aligns with broader efforts by the governments of Uzbekistan and Qatar to deepen strategic ties. Earlier, President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev and the Amir of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, discussed ways to strengthen economic and investment cooperation.
Qatari enterprises are currently involved in multiple investment projects across Uzbekistan. These initiatives focus on energy, transportation, tourism, agribusiness, and healthcare, contributing to the development of key sectors in the country.
