The fourth Tashkent International Investment Forum (TIIF-2025) concluded with a flurry of high-level agreements, reaffirming Uzbekistan’s status as a dynamic investment hub in Central Asia. On the final day alone, more than 20 investment contracts and memorandums of understanding were signed, spanning sectors from agriculture and construction to finance and workforce development.
Among the key agreements was a joint cooperation deal to develop an advanced, integrated system for agriculture, dairy farming, and dairy product manufacturing. The initiative aims to enhance domestic food production capacity while introducing modern technologies to the agricultural sector.
In urban development, a cooperation agreement was signed to construct modern multi-story residential buildings and hotels in the rapidly expanding New Namangan city area. This project is expected to boost regional housing supply and promote tourism infrastructure.
Infrastructure improvements were also prioritized, with agreements signed for the construction of wastewater treatment facilities in the Fergana Valley and Jizzakh region. These projects will contribute to sustainable environmental management and improved public health standards.
Another notable development was the signing of a memorandum of understanding to establish a training center designed to prepare Uzbek citizens for employment opportunities in Japan. This marks a significant step in fostering international labor mobility and skills development.
Additionally, a memorandum on Islamic finance-based funding was signed to support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The agreement will help broaden access to alternative financing channels for entrepreneurs and boost private sector growth.
Several other contracts focused on enhancing cooperation in banking, construction, and other key industries. Collectively, these agreements are expected to bring billions in investment to Uzbekistan and reinforce the country’s long-term economic strategy.
The second day of the forum had already witnessed the signing of over 30 agreements involving prominent international companies such as ACWA Power, Bell Engineering Software Technologists, HYPER Partners, Shaanxi Road and Bridge Group, TK-CH GROUP, and Uz Oman Capital. These partnerships targeted key areas such as renewable energy, infrastructure, housing, and environmental sustainability.
Experts noted that the forum’s outcomes will improve the business climate and create expanded opportunities on a regional and international scale. The TIIF continues to serve as a vital platform for dialogue, cooperation, and forward-looking investment initiatives in Central Asia.
