Ulaanbaatar, April 23, 2026 /MONTSAME/. As part
of his State Visit to Kazakhstan, President Khurelsukh Ukhnaa visited the
“Alem.AI” International Artificial Intelligence Center in Astana.
This center, which is the first specialized AI
hub in Kazakhstan, aims to introduce advanced artificial intelligence
technologies into science, education, the startup ecosystem, and public
administration, thereby enhancing competitiveness in the digital sector.
Kazakhstan has set a goal to become a regional
digital hub by 2029 and to increase exports of AI products and services to USD
5 billion. As part of this effort, the country has introduced a tiered
education system that begins training children from the age of 12, along with
programs that help young people find jobs in AI and connect with investors.
In addition, Kazakhstan is developing methods
for processing big data and using AI to optimize and accelerate services in
urban planning, healthcare, and social welfare, while also advancing the
automation of public services.
Kazakhstan is strongly supporting development
based on knowledge, innovation, and artificial intelligence, and has declared
2026 as the “Year of Digitalization and Artificial Intelligence,” according to
the Office of the President of Mongolia.
