Uzbekistan as a location - in one morning instead of six months of research
The Uzbekistan Outsourcing Conference brings decision-makers from Germany and across Europe together with the companies that actually deliver in Uzbekistan. Not a country evening with slides, but two and a half hours in which you meet the people with whom you could go on to run projects.
Why now: in a few years Uzbekistan has gone from a name on the map to a serious delivery market for IT services and BPO. On 22 October in Berlin you can find out what opportunities that opens up for your company.

Because the first one worked
On 9 October 2025 the first Uzbekistan Outsourcing Conference brought more than 90 participants together in Berlin, among them representatives of Schwarz Digits, Plug and Play and EPAM. Together with the Ost-Ausschuss der Deutschen Wirtschaft a format took shape that goes beyond networking alone.
Barely a month later participants travelled to Tashkent to meet companies and see sites for themselves. The conference was therefore not the end of the exchange but the beginning of concrete business contacts. That is exactly why the format returns.

The subject is on the table at government level
In June 2025 Federal Digital Minister Karsten Wildberger received Uzbek Prime Minister Abdulla Aripow at the Federal Ministry for Digital Transformation and Government Modernisation in Berlin. Business process outsourcing was one of the central topics of the meeting. Four months later the first Uzbekistan Outsourcing Conference took place in Berlin - with a representative of the ministry on the panel.
The country's digital transformation is most visible at the state-backed technology hub "IT Park Uzbekistan". Eleven German companies are already active there.
Medium-sized companies in particular stand to benefit. We want to help connect them with Uzbek outsourcing providers.
Federal Ministry for Digital Transformation and Government Modernisation, public post of June 2025, translated from the German original. The number of companies reflects the ministry's figure at that time.
The ministry is neither organiser nor sponsor of the conference. The post is quoted here as a public statement on the subject.

- Business development leaders evaluating new outsourcing locations and international growth
- Investors and consultants looking at emerging markets with substance
How market entry actually works
Registration, IT Park residency, tax status, hiring - what happens in which order, and where it gets stuck in practice.
Firsthand experience
Companies already running IT and BPO operations in Uzbekistan report back - including what did not go to plan.
Direct access to decision-makers
Representatives of Uzbekistan's technology and outsourcing sector are in the room, not in a presentation.
An assessment you can defend
The talent base, the business environment and the limits of the location - enough to make a reasoned decision, or to rule it out on reasoned grounds.
Event partner
The Ost-Ausschuss der Deutschen Wirtschaft e.V. also accompanies the second edition of the conference as partner.
The Embassy of the Republic of Uzbekistan in Berlin is once again the host of the conference and provides its premises.
Media partner
UZBEKISTAN invest now is the German-language business magazine on Uzbekistan and joins the conference as media partner. It appears monthly and every issue is free to read - if you want a picture of the market before you come, there is more there than an event page can offer.

Attendance is free and places at the embassy are limited. You will receive a confirmation after registering; the address, access details and running order follow by email once the agenda is set.
A detailed agenda follows. Rates and cost per workplace are available on request - they depend on role, scale and term, and a single number on an invitation page would most likely be the wrong one for your case.
