M360 Eurasia's return to Uzbekistan for a second consecutive year reflects the country's position as a regional digital hub and the momentum of its Digital Uzbekistan 2030 strategy. Bringing the 2026 event to Samarkand-historically a crossroads of Eurasian exchange-underscores the government's ambition to make Uzbekistan a platform for modern digital cooperation, innovation, and investment across the region.
Sherzod Shermatov, Minister of Digital Technologies, Republic of Uzbekistan said: We are honored to welcome the mobile ecosystem to Samarkand, a city that has connected cultures, ideas and trade across Eurasia for centuries. Hosting M360 Eurasia here reflects Uzbekistan's commitment to building a modern digital economy that draws on this legacy of openness and innovation. As we advance our ambitious Digital Uzbekistan 2030 agenda, partnerships with the mobile industry remain essential to accelerating economic growth and strengthening regional cooperation. We look forward to a productive dialogue between policymakers and industry leaders in Samarkand.
Kaan Terzioglu, Beeline Uzbekistan Chairman and VEON Group CEO said: Central Asia is fast becoming a focal point of AI-driven digital development in the emerging world. The 2025 edition of M360 Eurasia in Tashkent captured this energy, bringing together leaders from across the wider region. We are proud to again join the GSMA and Uzbekistan's Ministry of Digital Technologies to bring M360 Eurasia 2026 to Samarkand and showcase the region's growing potential.
John Hoffman, CEO, GSMA Ltd., said: Hosting M360 Eurasia 2026 in Samarkand reflects our continued commitment to supporting digital transformation and cross-regional collaboration across Eurasia. Samarkand's unique position as a historic and modern gateway between continents makes it an ideal home for this event. We look forward to bringing together global and regional leaders to advance innovation, investment and connectivity.
