#DigitalStartupsWeek 👍Ikkinchi panel sessiyasi "O'zbekistonda Startap Ekotizimini Rivojlantirish: Rejalar va Hamkorlik" nomi ostida o‘tmoqda, unda O'zbekiston ekotizim quruvchilarining vakillari Ilxomjon Aliyev, U-Enter Innovatsiya Markazi direktori o‘rinbosari moderatsiyasida yig‘ilgan. Dunyoda yosh startaplar omon qolish darajasi 10 foizdan kam. Bu yerda esa bu ko‘rsatkich 2–3 baravar yuqori. Buning sababi faqatgina O‘zbekistondagi ulkan talantdir. Butun dunyo bu yerda mavjud bo‘lgan talant darajasini tushunsa, men ushbu bozor uchun katta narsalar kutyapman. - Stiven Lin, Swift Launch asoschisi va bosh direktori O‘zbekiston butun Markaziy Osiyoni ulashadigan asosiy nuqtalardan biridir, va Plug and Play O‘zbekiston, Markaziy Osiyo va undan tashqaridagi investitsiya landshaftiga sarmoya kiritishni, shuningdek, mentorlash, tajriba va qo‘llab-quvvatlashni kutmoqda. - Aziz Ochilov, Plug and Play Markaziy Osiyo venture-assotsiati 2 yil ichida biz O‘zbekistondagi eng faol venchur fondlaridan biri sifatida 30 ta startapga 4 million dollardan ortiq sarmoya kiritdik. Kelasi yil biz ikkinchi VCni ishga tushirib, bu ekotizimga qo‘shilmoqchi bo‘lgan boshqa korporatsiyalar bilan hamkorlikda sarmoya kiritamiz. - Davron Parmonov, AloqaVentures COO Kelgusi yil uchun biz turli universitetlardan talabalarni jalb qilgan 2 ta inkubatsiya dasturini o‘tkazishni, MOST Ventures bilan hamkorlikda akseleratsiya dasturlarini amalga oshirishni va portfelimizdagi startaplarni xalqaro tadbirlarda ishtirok etish uchun homiylik qilishni rejalashtirmoqdamiz. Bularning barchasi startap ekotizimini birgalikda qurish haqida. - Dilmurod Khodiev, C-Space asoschisi va bosh direktori Biz O‘zbekistonda ko‘plab talantlar borligini bilamiz, aholisi taxminan 40 million. Ular faqat muvaffaqiyatga erishish imkoniyatiga muhtoj, shuning uchun biz buni ularga taqdim etishni xohlaymiz. Biz shu sababli, talantlarga o‘z orzularini topishda yordam berish uchun shu yerda turibmiz. - Muhammad Xalil, Startup Garage Venture Studio asoschisi va bosh direktori 🎥 Marosimni quyidagi havola orqali tomosha qilishingiz mumkin: 🟥Youtube ______ The second panel session, titled "Development of the Startup Ecosystem of Uzbekistan: Plans and Interaction," is taking place, bringing together representatives of Uzbekistan's ecosystem builders under the moderation of Ilkhomjon Aliev, Deputy Director at U-Enter Innovation Center. Globally, the survival rate of zero-day startups is less than 10 percent. Here, it is 2–3 times higher. This is only possible because of the immense talent in Uzbekistan. Once the world realizes the caliber of talent here, I foresee great things for this market. - Stephen Lin, Founder and CEO of Swift Launch Uzbekistan is one of major points connecting the whole Central Asia, and Plug and Play is really looking forward to investing the investment landscape of Uzbekistan, Central Asia, and beyond, as well as providing the mentorship, expertise and support - Aziz Ochilov, Venture Associate at Plug and Play Central Asia In 2 years we've done over $4 mln investments in 30 startups as one of the most active venture funds of Uzbekistan. Next year we will launch second VC and co-invest with other corporates who also want to join this ecosystem. - Davron Parmonov, COO at AloqaVentures For the coming year, we plan to conduct 2 incubation programs focusing on students from different universities, run acceleration programs in partnership with MOST Ventures, and sponsor startups from our portfolio to participate in international events. It's mostly about building the startup ecosystem together. - Dilmurod Khodiev, Founder and CEO of C-Space We know that there is a lot of talent in Uzbekistan, there is around 40 million population. They only need an opportunity to succeed, that is why we want to bring this to them. That is why we are here to help talents to find their dreams. - Muhammad Khalil, Founder and CEO of Startup Garage Venture Studio 🎥 You can watch the ceremony at the following link: 🟥Youtube Telegram | Instagram | Facebook | Youtube | LinkedIn

#DigitalStartupsWeek#Live ✅ Iskander Kurbanov, tadbirkor va sobiq VC & maslahatchi, "Venchur bozorining rivojlanishi: Xalqaro va mintaqaviy tajriba" panel sessiyasini moderatsiya qilmoqda, unda global innovatsion ekotizimlarning vakillari ishtirok etmoqda. Mahalliy VC'lar, mahalliy kompaniyalarni xalqaro investorlar bilan tanishtirish nuqtai nazaridan juda muhim ishni amalga oshirayotganini ta'kidladi. - Meri Helleranta, Courage Ventures hamkori Startaplar uchun maslahatim juda oddiy: tashqariga chiqing, muloqot qiling, bo'lishing, boshqalar bilan gaplashing va IT Parkning rezidenti bo'ling, bu ham pul talab qilmaydi. Bu muloqot haqida va o'xshash fikrlaydigan shaxslarni topish haqida, keyingi g'oyaga erishish uchun. - Salar Imamaliyev, Ozarbayjon Innovatsiya va Raqamli Rivojlanish Agentligi raisi maslahatchisi 5 ta investor 1 million dollar berishi, 1 ta investor 5 million dollar berishidan yaxshiroqdir. Ular boshqarishlari, rivojlanishda yordam berishlari va keyin sotishlari kerak bo'ladi. - Piotr Serwin, AMA International boshqaruv direktori Bizning eng katta strategiyalarimizdan biri IT Park bilan hamkorlikdir — kelasi yili birga startaplarni Silikon vodiysiga yuboramiz, har bir xalqaro dasturga 10-15 ta startap yuboramiz, masalan Alchemist Accelerator, Hero Accelerator by Draper University va boshqalar. - Yeskendir Amirkhan, Astana Hub xalqaro aloqalar va investitsiyalar bo'limi direktori O'ylaymanki, O'zbekiston boshqa modellar, masalan Silikon vodiysi kabi tajribalardan foydalanish imkoniyatiga ega va ularning eng yaxshi qismlarini muvaffaqiyatli o'zlashtirish imkoniyatiga ega. - Viktoriya Hernandesk, C-Level kengash maslahatchisi, Venture Capital Biz IT Park Uzbekistan bilan Regulyatorlik Sandboxni rivojlantirishda hamkorlik qilishni xohlaymiz va mintaqaviy ravishda birlashib, global miqyosda yanada jozibador bo'lishni maqsad qilganmiz. Startaplar uchun mo'ljallangan dastur investorlar uchun ham zarur. - Ravshan Kurbanov, Tajikiston Venture Capital asoschisi 🎥 Siz ushbu marosimni quyidagi havola orqali jonli tomosha qilishingiz mumkin: 🟥Youtube ______ ✅ Iskander Kurbanov, Serial Entrepreneur and Ex-VC & Advisor, is moderating the panel session "Development of Venture Market: International and Regional Experience" with representatives of global innovative ecosystems. The local VC are doing a very important job in terms of introducing the local companies to international investors. - Meri Helleranta, Partner at Courage Ventures My advice for startups is very simple, go out, communicate, share, talk to others, and become a resident of IT Park, it doesn't cost money either. It is about communication and making sure you get like-minded personalities to get to the next idea. We look forward to a many joint projects in the future. - Salar Imamaliyev, Advisor to the Chairperson of the Innovation and Digital Development Agency of Azerbaijan It is better to have 5 investors giving 1 million each, then 1 investor giving 5 millions. They will have to manage, help with progress and then sell it. - Piotr Serwin, Associate Director at AMA International One of our biggest strategies is collaboration with IT Park — next year together we're sending new batches of startups to Silicon Valley, 10-15 startups to each international program like Alchemist Accelerator, Hero Accelerator by Draper University, and others. - Yeskendir Amirkhan, Director of International Relations and Investments Office at Astana Hub I think Uzbekistan has the advantage to be able to get the example of other models such as Silicon Valley, and take the best part of it without fail. - Victoria Hernandez, C-Level Board Advisor, Venture Capital We would like to collaborate with IT Park Uzbekistan in developing the Regulatory Sandbox and unite as a region to be more attractive on the global level. The same program as for startups is needed for investors as well. - Ravshan Kurbanov, Founder, Tajikistan Venture Capital 🎥 You can watch the ceremony live at the following link: 🟥Youtube Telegram | Instagram | Facebook | Youtube | LinkedIn

#DigitalStartupsWeek#Live ✅Azamat Karamatov, IT Park Ventures bosh direktori venchur fond haqida nuqt so'zladi Texnologik startap tadbirkorlikni investitsiyasiz biz tasavvur qila olmaymiz. Bejiz davlatimiz rahbari tomonidan innovatsiyalar, tadbirkorlik, kapital bozorini rivojlantirishga alohida urg‘u berib kelinmayapti. IT Park Venture fondimizning asosiy maqsadi bu yuqori salohiyatga ega startaplarni topish, ularga investitsiyalar kiritish va ularni xalqaro bozorga chiqarish, eksport salohiyatimizni oshirish. Fondimizning hajmi 10 million dollar bo‘lib, asosan boshlang‘ich — "pre-seed" va "seed" bosqichlarida investitsiya kiritish nazarda tutilgan. Lekin alohida hollarda istiqbolli startaplarga, "unicorn" bo‘lishni rejalashtirilayotgan va istiqboli bor startaplarga A raund bosqichida ham investitsiya kiritish nazarda tutilgan. Bu 500 mingdan 1 million dollargacha investitsiya. Fondning o‘rtacha cheki 150 ming dollar tashkil etadi. Agar jamg‘armamizning tsikliga o‘tadigan bo‘lsak, birinchi 3 yil — bu faol investitsiyalar, 4–8 yillar — bu loyiha portfelini boshqarish, va 5–10 yillar uni sotish va "exit" qilish. Azamat Karamatov 🎥 Marosimni quyidagi havola orqali jonli efirda tomosha qilishingiz mumkin: 🟥Youtube _______ ✅Azamat Karamatov, CEO of IT Park Ventures, spoke about the venture fund. Technological startup entrepreneurship is inseparable from investments. It is no coincidence that our President places particular emphasis on fostering innovation, entrepreneurship, and capital markets. The primary goal of our IT Park Venture fund is to identify high-potential startups, invest in them, and bring them to the international market, thereby enhancing our export potential. Our fund's total volume is $10 million, primarily allocated for investments at the early stages — pre-seed and seed. However, in select cases, investments are made in promising startups aiming to become "unicorns" or those at the Series A stage. These investments range from $500,000 to $1 million, while the fund's average ticket size is $150,000. As for the fund’s cycle, the first 3 years are dedicated to active investments, years 4 to 8 focus on portfolio management, and years 5 to 10 are for sales and exits.
