Business Incubator

In 2023, the Entrepreneurship Center of the International Taraz Innovative Institute named after Sh. Murtaza received a grant to support business incubators from the National Agency for Innovation Development "QazInnovations" JSC. This allowed the institute to conduct two free business incubation programs. The work of the business incubator was revitalized on July 24, 2023.

The main goal of the business incubator is to create and support technological and innovative businesses/startups by commercializing knowledge and technologies, while offering entrepreneurs access to institutional infrastructure and favorable development conditions at the initial stage.
