Global Growth Opportunities for Central Eurasian Startups: Applications Open for Silkway Accelerator
Astana Hub, in collaboration with Google for Startups, has opened applications for the sixth batch of the Silkway Accelerator – the leading growth-stage tech accelerator in Central Asia. The program is open to startup teams from Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Mongolia.
Applications will be accepted until June 2 via the link.
Over the past three years, the Silkway Accelerator has received around 1,300 applications, with only 62 startups from Central Eurasia successfully selected and graduating from the program. Collectively, these alumni have raised over $28 million in investments, with a combined valuation exceeding $500 million. Their expansion spans markets such as the UAE, Turkey, the United States, and beyond. Notable alumni include Zypl.ai, Arlan Biotech, NB Fit, UvU, ApartX, Biometric, ZebraEye, Alaqan, and others.
“Participants of the Silkway Accelerator gain access to a global network of mentors, experts, and investors, while becoming part of a strong international community. The program is designed to help startups focus entirely on product growth – validating hypotheses, accelerating metrics, and reaching the next level. Startups in the sixth batch will also be eligible for potential investment from Astana Hub Ventures. The program will culminate in a Demo Day at Digital Bridge 2025, where teams will showcase their progress to investors, corporations, and leaders of the global tech ecosystem,” said Yerbol Akhmetov, Director of Business Programs Office at Astana Hub.
The accelerator is open to tech startups with a working product at the PMF or Scale stage, ready to commit to 12 intensive weeks in Astana. The program offers structured tracking, free office space, co-living accommodation, mentorship, global networking support, PR assistance, and investment opportunities.
Kazakhstan remains the first and only country in Central Asia to host an accelerator in partnership with the global company Google for Startups. More information on the outcomes of the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth batches is available at astanahub.com.
For reference:
Google for Startups is a startup support initiative launched by Google in 2011. It connects over 50 coworking spaces and accelerators in 125 countries, providing hands-on learning for early-stage entrepreneurs.

My husband works for the government, and his security clearance requires that he maintain a good credit standing. Unfortunately, last year, we observed a decline in his credit score, so we knew we needed some help. Huge shoutout to ‘H A C K M A V E N S 5 AT G M A I L DOT COM’ for stepping up as a fantastic credit agent! They really helped us clear up bad debts and bumped our scores up to 815. If you need to reach out, you can call/text/Whats-App at [+1 (2 0 9) 4 1 7 – 1 9 5 7].
