Almaty is setting its sights on the global IT market.

Silicon Valley is where the technologies of the future are born. Today, a delegation from the Almaty city administration is there to learn from the world’s leading innovators.
Meetings with Google, Apple, and YouTube.
Discussions with professors from Stanford University.
Kairat Bekenov, Chairman of Almaty Invest, emphasized that the Mayor of Almaty had specifically tasked the delegation with studying and collecting international best practices that can be implemented in Almaty, particularly in the development of a future IT Park.
The key question today is no longer “Can we do it?” but rather “How can we do it faster?”
Artificial intelligence, startups, and new markets are no longer concepts of the future—they are the reality that Almaty is confidently embracing.
A special strength of this mission is the contribution of our compatriots living and working abroad—professionals employed by leading global companies who are ready to share their knowledge and experience. This cooperation is further strengthened through the unifying efforts of Asset Abdualiev.
Most importantly, this visit is part of a broader national strategy.
President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has outlined a clear course for the development of artificial intelligence, digitalization, and the new economy as key pillars of Kazakhstan’s future competitiveness.
What comes next?
• Creation of an IT Park in Almaty
• A new innovation ecosystem
• New opportunities for young talent
• New drivers of economic growth
Almaty is already a city of ideas and talent.
The next step is to transform it into a city of global solutions.
