UzVC launches flagship program for startup growth in Uzbekistan

UzVC, the first state-supported fund of funds in Uzbekistan, announced the launch of the Startup Growth Program — a flagship acceleration initiative aimed at supporting local startups and developing the country's venture ecosystem.

The program will be another step toward building a strong startup landscape in one of the most dynamic markets in Central Asia. Participants will gain access to mentorship, investments, as well as international partners and communities.

UzVC actively invests in promising teams and previously served as the lead investor in the country's first private venture funds — Imkon Ventures and SarmoVC, which previously operated as venture studios. UzVC's portfolio already includes 9 startups, over $6 million in combined revenue from portfolio companies, and more than $1 million in direct investments.

The program is open for applications — startups seeking support and growth can join and apply here.
