AI Startup Showdown: Kazakhstan’s Top AI Startups to Compete at AlmatyFair.ai
As part of AlmatyFair.ai, Kazakhstan’s largest artificial intelligence exhibition taking place from March 28–30, 2025, the AI Startup Showdown will bring together the country’s most promising AI startups for a high-stakes pitch competition.

Finalists will present their cutting-edge AI solutions and compete for a $10,000 prize pool, along with the opportunity to join the Hero Training Program accelerator in Silicon Valley, USA.
With global demand for AI solutions skyrocketing, Kazakhstan is rapidly emerging as a rising player on the international tech map. A key milestone in this transformation is the creation of alem.ai—Kazakhstan’s International Center for Artificial Intelligence, initiated by President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev. The center aims to boost AI exports to $5 billion by 2029, while nurturing talent, accelerating startups, and advancing scientific research in artificial intelligence.
The AI Startup Showdown offers more than just a chance to win. It’s a platform for early-stage ventures to gain visibility, attract investment, connect with strategic partners, and receive expert feedback from some of the most accomplished minds in the AI industry.
Thirteen startups have been selected to compete: flection.ai, Bizdin.ai, RE:Create AI, KOZ AI, Finflow, Foody.AI, Qala AI, redflags.ai, Protector AI, WeGlobal.ai, Pleep, KikoAI, and OncoZero.AI. Their solutions address real-world challenges in healthcare, finance, logistics, and education. A panel of industry leaders and successful AI founders will judge the competition and provide actionable insights to help these teams grow.
AlmatyFair.ai, taking place from March 28–30, will gather top IT companies, startups, and AI experts. The exhibition will spotlight the real-world applications of AI across industries including GovTech, BigTech, Smart Cities, healthcare, education, and more. Visitors can explore sector-specific zones, attend panel sessions, and connect with innovators from across the region.
AlmatyFair.ai is organized by the Ministry of Digital Development, Innovations and Aerospace Industry of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Akimat of Almaty. The event is sponsored by Kaspi.kz, with Freedom Bank and Halyk Bank as official partners.
The exhibition will take place at Atakent Business Cooperation Center, one of Almaty’s largest venues. Full program details and registration are available at AlmatyFair.ai.
