This forum will play a significant role in developing economic cooperation between Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan, as well as deepening regional economic integration.

On the third day of the forum, a panel discussion titled "Azerbaijan–Uzbekistan: The Vector of Economic Cooperation" will be held. The discussions will focus on strengthening bilateral trade, implementing joint investment projects, and expanding cooperation in energy, transport, agriculture, industry, and digital technologies.
Additionally, regional coordination initiatives, particularly the Middle Corridor program, will be discussed. This program is an international transport route connecting China, Kazakhstan, the Caspian Sea, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Turkey, and Europe. In October 2023, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Kazakhstan agreed to establish a joint railway company — Middle Corridor Multimodal Ltd. — to improve the efficiency of transit operations along this route. By the end of 2024, the volume of cargo transported via the Trans-Caspian route increased by 62%, reaching 4.5 million tons, and is expected to rise to 10 million tons by 2027.
Important decisions regarding the expansion of cooperation in digital technologies, energy, transport, and other strategic sectors will be made at this forum, which will give new momentum to the region’s economic development.
