On Tuesday, an exhibition celebrating the 18th anniversary of the Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs of Turkmenistan (UIET) began at the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Turkmenistan in the capital city of Ashgabat.

President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov extended his heartfelt congratulations on the 18th anniversary of the UIET, as well as on the opening of the exhibition and the international forum "Investments in the Future of Turkmenistan" organized for this occasion.

"In the 'Program for Socio-Economic Development and Investment of Turkmenistan in 2026', it is planned to further provide state support for small and medium-sized enterprises, increase the share of the private sector in the economy by improving the business environment, and reach a 72.9% share for the non-state sector in the GDP. In strengthening the industrialization of our national economy and ensuring sustainable growth, the exemplary work of the members of the Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs of Turkmenistan must be our main support," the Turkmen Head of State said in his congratulatory letter.

The exhibition widely showcases high-quality, competitive products of Turkmen entrepreneurs and industrialists, projects based on modern technologies, and export opportunities. Besides demonstrating the achievements of local producers, the exhibition serves as an effective platform for establishing new partnerships.

The international forum "Investments in the Future of Turkmenistan," held in conjunction with the exhibition, will focus on developing investment cooperation, implementing joint projects, and strengthening mutually beneficial business relations. Bilateral meetings and business negotiations will take place during the forum.

The exhibition dedicated to the 18th anniversary of the UIET will continue until March 19.
