The introduction to the center began with an immersion into history: at the Museum of Singularity, the guest traced the evolution of AI from ideas of the 17th century to modern neural networks. Here, technologies can literally be experienced firsthand — visitors can ask questions to a digital guide or play a game of chess with a robot. The scale of real-world applications is demonstrated in the Smart City zone, where neural networks are already helping cities reduce traffic congestion, balance energy systems, and improve public safety.
In the AI Cinema immersive theater with a 180° panoramic view, Sebastian Kurz was presented with video content created on the platform of Kazakhstan’s first tech unicorn, Higgsfield AI.
An important part of the visit was знакомства (familiarization) with the activities of Astana Hub — the region’s largest innovation cluster, bringing together more than 2,000 IT companies. Astana Hub CEO Magzhan Madiyev spoke about the development of the technology ecosystem, startup support, international partnerships, and initiatives aimed at developing human capital.
With extensive experience in developing digital security solutions, Sebastian Kurz showed particular interest in Kazakhstani cybersecurity startups.
IT Holding Kazdream presented its Antifraud AI system — an intelligent solution for detecting online fraud. The technology increases the effectiveness of combating cybercrime by 40% and helps prevent losses of more than $42 million annually.
MSSP Global showcased solutions in information security and data protection. The company develops products and technologies aimed at ensuring cyber resilience and protecting digital infrastructure.
The WebTotem team introduced a service that automatically scans websites, domains, and IT infrastructure to detect vulnerabilities, breaches, and other threats. The platform enables organizations to monitor the condition of their digital assets and promptly mitigate potential risks.
Tumar.One demonstrated a crowdsourced cybersecurity platform — the largest of its kind in Central Asia. Its practical effectiveness has been confirmed through cases in the banking sector, telecommunications, education, and public services.
The TAUTAN product was also presented — a solution for secure authentication and key storage. This is a fully domestic development that enables companies and government institutions to implement FIDO2, UAF, and U2F protocols in their information systems, protecting against phishing and unauthorized remote access.
The visit provided an opportunity to discuss prospects for international cooperation and knowledge exchange in artificial intelligence and cybersecurity. Astana Hub and alem.ai continue to establish Kazakhstan as a platform for dialogue between technology companies, governments, and the expert community.
