United Arab Emirates: EcoSmart sees Uzbekistan as an IT development center for the energy sector

EcoSmart, a company specializing in the development of sustainable digital solutions for the energy and construction industries, has announced its intention to open a technical office in Uzbekistan. Negotiations on this issue were held as part of an official meeting with representatives of IT Park Uzbekistan, where they discussed potential formats of cooperation, the scale of the future office and staffing.

EcoSmart, based in the United Arab Emirates, works in the areas of energy efficiency, smart infrastructure, and green building. The company is actively developing SaaS products focused on energy-saving technologies, and considers the Persian Gulf countries as key sales markets. As part of the strategy of scaling the technical and development base, Uzbekistan is considered as the optimal direction for creating a back office focused on the export of IT services.

During the meeting, the company discussed the parameters of its future presence in Uzbekistan, including the formation of a team of 30-40 junior and middle-level specialists. The issues of access to the local IT ecosystem, infrastructure support, recruitment mechanism and opportunities for preferential treatment provided to residents of the IT Park were also discussed.

The choice of Uzbekistan as a base for technical development is due not only to its favorable geographical location and growing human resources, but also to the state's desire to create a favorable environment for international outsourcing. EcoSmart representatives stressed that the country has all the prerequisites for forming an export-oriented team capable of providing high-quality digital solutions in the energy industry of the MENA region.

The participation of companies such as EcoSmart in local digital transformation strengthens Uzbekistan's position on the international technological map and helps attract new investors to the smart services sector. IT Park Uzbekistan continues to implement its strategy to turn the country into a key IT hub in the region.
