Regional Integration: Turkmenistan Participates in Investment Forum in Tajikistan
Turkmenistan is participating in the International Investment Forum "Khatlon Invest-2025," which opened today, November 11, in the Tajik city of Bokhtar.
The participation of the Turkmen delegation, along with representatives from other regional countries (Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kazakhstan), underscores the strategic importance of regional integration and Ashgabat's commitment to strengthening economic and trade cooperation with its neighboring partners.
The forum, organized on the initiative of the Executive Authority of Khatlon Region, brought together regional leaders, diplomats, and business representatives from more than ten countries, including Russia, Iran, Pakistan, China, Belarus, and Turkey.
The main goal of the event is to present the region's investment potential, attract foreign direct investment, and enhance export potential. Given Turkmenistan's participation, the topics discussed in the panel sessions are of particular interest.
The first session focuses on investments for sustainable development, digitalization opportunities, and partnerships with the private sector, consistent with Turkmenistan's commitment to digital economic transformation. The second, "From Land to Market," is dedicated to the development of value chains in agriculture, exports, and processing of local products.
The Turkmen delegation will have the opportunity to explore mechanisms for attracting investment in agro-industrial clusters, explore the potential of logistics infrastructure and access to new markets, and become familiar with investment opportunities in Tajikistan's free economic zones (Dangara, Bokhtar, Kulob, and Nurek).
New cooperation agreements between manufacturing companies are expected to be signed during the forum. Turkmenistan's participation in this forum is part of a consistent policy of expanding connectivity in Central Asia.
