Startup Alley is a key part of the forum, where emerging companies present their ideas to thousands of participants, including investors, industry experts and business representatives. The showcased projects cover a wide range of IT and AI fields, from education and healthcare to mobility, fintech, ecotechnology and biometrics. Running in parallel is the IT Companies Exhibition, where major industry players demonstrate cutting-edge solutions in cloud services, cybersecurity, fintech and other technologies shaping the global digital agenda.

Among the participants of Startup Alley are startups working at the intersection of education, healthcare and artificial intelligence. WeGlobal.ai uses AI for career guidance and psychological support for school students, helping prevent crisis situations and enabling data-driven management in education. Aiutante provides an integrated solution for supporting elderly people with cognitive impairments, connecting families, medical staff and caregivers in a single system. CYBERPACK.AI is building a full STEAM ecosystem for schools, while Biometric.Vision develops biometric identification and remote onboarding technologies already helping global companies reduce fraud risks.
“We are actively involved in many of the forum’s initiatives and use every opportunity for development. At Startup Alley, we meet potential partners and future clients, and build productive connections. This is not our first time participating in such events, and we clearly see how valuable they are for growth and new opportunities,” said Mansur Akhmerov, CFO of CYBERPACK.AI.
A significant part of the exhibition is dedicated to healthcare and sustainability solutions. NeuroGuard enables early detection of neurodegenerative diseases, while Ascle reduces doctors’ administrative workload by converting speech into medical records and preliminary diagnoses. Bas Taxi is building a national mobility platform that unites taxi and courier services. Aquaguard monitors water resource usage through hyperspectral imagery, and the Agrotechnology Hub tracks water flow “from glacier to field.” Financial and business solutions include Alaqan with palm-vein biometric payment technology and Shai.pro, an AI lab developing intelligent products for process automation.
From October 2 to 4, Astana is hosting Digital Bridge 2025, the largest technology and AI event in Central Eurasia, bringing together more than 30,000 participants, over 100 investors and business angels, and 400+ speakers from more than 30 countries.
