Computer technology in Uzbekistan

Looking to the future

• The progress in high-tech is moving forward. Many of the technological solutions that seemed science fiction, are implemented and actively used in everyday life. Among the new products of the future is a new ‘SMS-To `lov’ payment system, which will allow the residents of Uzbekistan to pay for municipal services, cellular and urban communications, Internet and other services using ordinary cell phones and SMS. And this is just the beginning. In the future this system will start the active introduction of NFC (near fields communication - communication among the field) technology in Uzbekistan. Thanks to it the users will be able to pay for public transportation, purchases, petrol simply bringing the phone close to the terminal. And it is not the only national development ready to translate the fantasies into reality.

Domestic software goes for export Ilhom Abdullayev, executive director, Association of IT Enterprises and Organizations of Uzbekistan: 

• The growth rates of the software industry are an important indicator of positive development of the innovation economy of Uzbekistan.

National developers offer competitive and popular software products, the export options expand through addition of high-tech products.
