The recent signing of Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) between Women in Tech Global and various stakeholders in Uzbekistan was made possible following Kamola Sobirova’s visit to Paris during the Women in Tech Global Summit last May. At this pivotal event, which gathered over 400 delegates from around the world, Sobirova represented Uzbekistan, engaging with leaders and innovators dedicated to advancing women’s roles in technology. Her participation underscored the commitment of Uzbekistan to fostering a supportive environment for women in the tech industry. The connections made during the summit laid the groundwork for these collaborations, enabling Women in Tech Global to partner with key local organizations.
Collaborative Framework
These MOUs establish a framework for long-term collaboration, focusing on activities that will empower women in Uzbekistan’s IT industry. By combining global expertise with local knowledge and resources, Women in Tech Global aims to create a more inclusive and diverse IT landscape in the country.
Leadership and Vision
Anna Ambrozevich, Director of Women in Tech Uzbekistan, has been instrumental in driving the organization’s mission forward. During recent events, including the Women in Tech CCA Awards held in Tashkent, she emphasized the increasing representation of women in IT and the importance of state support for women’s initiatives.
Impact and Future Outlook
The signing of these MOUs marks a significant milestone in efforts to empower women and girls in STEAM across Central Asia. Women in Tech Global is confident that these partnerships will play a crucial role in shaping an inclusive, innovative, and empowering tech-driven future in Uzbekistan.
Growing Presence
Uzbekistan has become the first country in Central Asia where Women in Tech operates, with the organization’s office in Tashkent. This expansion reflects the growing importance of the region in the global tech landscape and the organization’s commitment to supporting women in technology worldwide.
As Women in Tech Global continues to expand its reach and impact in Uzbekistan, it remains dedicated to creating a supportive environment for women in the tech industry, fostering innovation, and driving meaningful change in the Uzbek tech ecosystem.
