The centerpiece of the business agenda is the International Conference of the Construction Industry (ICCI 2026), held under the theme “New Uzbekistan: From Ideas to Large-Scale Solutions”.

UzBuild continues to affirm its status as the country’s leading industry platform and a national brand, promoting international cooperation, attracting investment and expanding business partnerships.

Hannah Xu, President of the Chinese company, shared her impressions of the exhibition:

-  We are participating in this exhibition for the first time, arriving with a clear objective - to establish new business contacts and identify potential clients. China and Uzbekistan are reliable partners and our countries have traditionally maintained friendly and constructive relations, creating a solid foundation for expanding cooperation.

As is well known, President Xi Jinping’s Belt and Road Initiative has already opened up broad opportunities for Chinese manufacturers and continues to facilitate the expansion of economic ties. It is precisely within this context that we decided to take part in this exhibition.

During the event, we hope to find reliable partners, particularly among furniture manufacturers and factories. Overall, I remain optimistic and confident that our participation will yield concrete and practical results.

We are interested in building long-term and promising partnerships. If you have contacts of companies or entrepreneurs operating in the furniture sector who may be interested in cooperation, we would greatly appreciate your support.

As for my impressions of Uzbekistan and the exhibition, they are entirely positive. I would especially like to highlight the warm and sincere hospitality of the people, which has left a lasting impression on me.
