IT prospects of Central Asia were discussed at Web Summit Qatar

From February 26 to 29, one of the largest technology conferences in the world, Web Summit Qatar 2024, is taking place in Doha, Qatar. This event is notable not only because Qatar is hosting the Web Summit for the first time, but also because speakers at the conference are discussing the development potential of the IT industry in Central Asia and the Caucasus.

During the panel discussion "The emerging tech hub in Eurasia," participants explored opportunities for strategic partnerships between Central Asian and Caucasian countries and those of the Persian Gulf, examining how such cooperation could strengthen the IT ecosystems of these regions and impact the global IT economy.

The moderator of the discussion, Anatoly Motkin, president of the StrategEast Center for the Development of the New Economy, is confident that combining efforts in the IT sector among Central Asia, the Caucasus, and the Persian Gulf region will create a new technological hub. He emphasizes that such collaboration should begin with IT education.
