ISLAMABAD, July 26. /Dunyo IA/. Pakistan's “News Network Pakistan” has published an article titled "Central Asia and Azerbaijan Are Becoming a Magnet for Startups, Investors, and Talented Professionals", reports Dunyo IA correspondent.

The publication notes that a region once rarely associated with the global technology industry is now steadily strengthening its position on the world's innovation map, attracting international investors and leading technology companies.

Particular attention is given to the experience of Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, where robust innovation ecosystems have been established through IT Park Uzbekistan and Astana Hub. According to the article, negotiations are currently underway on Azerbaijan's participation in this regional cooperation.

The publication also highlights the INMerge International Summit, which has evolved over the past five years from a small gathering into one of the largest technology events in Central Eurasia.
