Speaking at the plenary session of the 17th International Conference Turkmentel-2024, the chairman of the "Turkmenaragatnashyk" agency, Hajymyrat Hudayguliyew, emphasized the importance of digitalization and cybersecurity for the country's development. In his speech, he noted that digital technologies are transforming all areas of life, from education to healthcare, and are becoming the foundation for the creation of smart cities and efficient industries.
Hudayguliyew recalled that last year, Turkmenistan's first 'smart' city, Arkadag, was opened, which has already received international recognition. He also spoke about plans to expand high-speed internet and implement 5G technologies across the country.
Another important direction is the training of specialists in the field of digital technologies. IT competitions and startup programs are held in the country for school and university students. In addition, increased attention is paid to ensuring cybersecurity at the national level.
'We are open to continuing international cooperation in this area and expect that this conference will become a successful platform for exchanging ideas and finding new solutions,' concluded Hudayguliyew.
