The Generative Nation movement reflects Kazakhstan's aspiration to build a robust innovation ecosystem, drawing inspiration from global leaders like Singapore and South Korea in the field of AI. The Generative Nation movement will bring together all initiatives designed to position Kazakhstan on the global map of AI transformation.

Kazakhstan has become the first country in the world to introduce a model educational program on blockchain industry on a nationwide scale. I am confident that thanks to our fruitful cooperation, Kazakhstan's higher education system will become a supplier of professionals in the blockchain industry not only for the needs of Kazakhstan's economy, but also for the global labor market.
