International technology hub to be created in Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan may soon be home to an international technology hub. Prime Minister Olzhas Bektenov discussed plans for its establishment with Balaji Srinivasan, founder of the international Network School community. The project will be implemented in the Akmola Region, with future expansion into Alatau City. It will combine IT training, startup development, technology entrepreneurship, and AI initiatives. The new hub is expected to attract software developers, engineers, researchers, and entrepreneurs from around the world. The meeting also covered other initiatives, including Network School’s participation in the AI Film Festival. Following the talks, Bektenov instructed the relevant government agencies to support the implementation of the joint projects.
