The second business forum "B5+1" will start tomorrow in Bishkek.
From February 4 to 6, Bishkek will host the second business forum "B5+1". This significant event, organized in collaboration with the government of the Kyrgyz Republic, aims to create a space for dialogue between entrepreneurs and representatives of the authorities from Central Asian countries and the USA.
The main goal of the forum is to strengthen economic cooperation in the region and establish productive communication between the public and private sectors.
The forum will focus on key areas such as agriculture, banking and finance, essential mineral resources, e-commerce and information technology, as well as transport, logistics, and tourism.
It is important to note that the first "B5+1" forum took place in Almaty on March 14-15, 2024, gathering over 250 participants from business and stakeholders from ten countries.
The "B5+1" forum serves as a business parallel to the diplomatic platform "C5+1", which unites five Central Asian countries (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan) with the United States.
