Tashkent will host the Silk Road Finance & Technology Forum 2026 on 24-26 August, bringing together leaders from finance, fintech, technology, startups and investment.

Organised by the Central Asian Fintech Association (CAFA) and the Global Finance & Technology Network (GFTN), the forum is designed as a regional meeting point for companies, founders, investors and industry leaders exploring the future of financial technology and digital business.

Who Will Be There?

The programme brings together representatives from major technology and fintech companies, as well as venture investors and startups from across the region.

Speakers and participants include:

Telegram’s COO
Founders of Uzum
Representatives of Nium and M2P Fintech
International venture funds
Startups and technology companies

For businesses following the development of Central Asia’s technology and financial sectors, the forum provides an opportunity to understand emerging trends and meet companies actively shaping the regional ecosystem.

Investor Hours

One of the particularly interesting parts of the programme is Investor Hours a format designed to connect startups directly with investors through one-on-one meetings.

According to the organisers, the programme has already facilitated more than 1,000 meetings between startups and investors.

For founders, this makes the event more than a traditional conference. It creates an opportunity to present businesses directly to potential investors, develop new relationships and explore fundraising opportunities.

Why It Matters

Uzbekistan’s technology, fintech and startup ecosystem is developing quickly, while Tashkent is hosting an increasing number of international business and technology events.

The Silk Road Finance & Technology Forum provides another platform connecting local and regional companies with international expertise and capital.

For businesses working in fintech, technology, investment or startups, the event offers a practical opportunity to build new connections and better understand where the regional market is heading.
