In this World Business Special, Guy Shone sits down with the Country Director of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) in Azerbaijan to unpack what’s next for one of the region’s most pivotal development partnerships.
Following high-level talks in Baku between ADB leadership and the Azerbaijani government, the bank is preparing to launch its 2025–2029 Country Partnership Strategy — a roadmap that will drive future investment and reform.

How ADB plans to support Azerbaijan’s green transition

Challenges and expectations from both sides
This episode offers an insider look at how multilateral finance intersects with national ambition — and what’s at stake as Baku positions itself as a hub for innovation, resilience and investment.
