Kazakhstan approves digital and AI development strategy through 2029

The Digital Qazaqstan strategy merges public-sector and business digitization into a single roadmap through 2029. Priorities include building data center capacity, training specialists to work with AI, supporting domestic tech solutions, and simplifying regulation for companies adopting digital tools. For a business owner, this isn't an abstract government program — it signals that access to grants, infrastructure and trained talent will expand over the coming years. At 1Cifer we watch this shift happen in real time: Kazakhstani companies increasingly arrive not to "talk about AI" but with a specific process they want to hand to an agent — from contract approvals to task tracking — and a national strategy like this will only speed things up for those still on the fence. The practical takeaway: now is a reasonable moment to map which routine processes could be handed to AI agents while competitors are still shaping their own digital plans.
