Tech Hub CEO Bekzhan Mutanov said, "The launch of this program will allow the introduction of training tools for CSAs, which should help large Kazakhstani enterprises in digital transformation, identify their strengths and weaknesses. We are glad that the Centre for the Fourth Industrial Revolution (C4IR) acts as a platform for the introduction and development of SIRI in Kazakhstan."

By designing factories of the future and identifying specific technology drivers for Kazakhstan's industry segments, the country can better position itself for success in the global marketplace."
