On March 3, an important meeting took place, during which the First Deputy Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Kyrgyz Republic, Adylbek Kasymaliev, discussed with the leadership of the international company Edelweiss Group AG the prospects of attracting significant European investments for the development of infrastructure projects in the country. During the negotiations, the company representatives expressed their readiness to attract capital from major financial institutions and private investors from Europe to implement significant initiatives in Kyrgyzstan.
One of the key aspects of the discussion was the creation of a new special economic zone (SEZ) based on the Mailuu-Suu lamp factory. This project is considered a priority and aims to modernize production by introducing modern European technologies in the field of energy and processing. In addition, the investment plan includes the integration of banking and corporate services through Edelweiss Bank, which will help form a unique financial and industrial cluster in the region.
Kasymaliev noted that Kyrgyzstan is open to international business and is ready to create all necessary conditions for long-term cooperation, while strictly adhering to national legislation. Following the meeting, he instructed the relevant state bodies to promptly develop mechanisms for implementing the proposed ideas, which should serve as a powerful impetus for the recovery of the country's industrial sector.
