In Tajikistan, Deputy Minister of Industry and New Technologies, Farhod Bilolzoda, confirmed the country’s intention to create the High-Tech Park at an online panel discussion that was organised in collaboration with University of Central Asia (UCA) on 10 March. During the panel discussion, experts from Eurasia reportedly shared their experiences on the important factors to be considered while creating a High-Tech Park, including the required basic infrastructures, competence, technology, and legal framework. In his remarks, the Rector of UCA, Prof. Dr. S. Sohail H. Naqvi, spoke about the "centrality of people in a knowledge economy, and the need to provide the best educational opportunities and training. Once such a conducive environment is created, there is need for participation by entrepreneurs to expand opportunities through human ingenuity and innovation."
