Jetisu Digital is an IT hub where Taldykorgan youth build their future

In today's world, programming is not just a popular skill, but a real opportunity to build a successful career. President of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev noted at a government meeting:

"The transition to a new technological order based on digitalization will create fundamentally new realities. We must be ready for these changes."

In order for Kazakhstan to confidently move into the future, it is necessary to actively develop the IT sector today. One of the leading platforms contributing to this is the IT hub Jetisu Digital, which is rapidly developing in the Jetisu region. This is not just a training center, but a space for mastering digital skills, launching startups and immersing yourself in the IT industry.

Since its opening, the hub has helped more than two thousand people gain knowledge in the field of information technology. In 2024, 74 events were held dedicated to developing IT skills, supporting startups and introducing innovations. In 2025, their number will increase to 100, and new courses in artificial intelligence and game development will give young people the opportunity to master promising professions.

One of the key areas of the hub's work was the incubation program, which provided more than 20 teams with access to mentoring support, training, and technical resources. This allowed them to develop their projects and take them to a new level.

An important stage in the development of the center was the opening of the Samsung Innovation Campus programming school with the support of Samsung and the Ministry of Digital Development of Kazakhstan. A modern computer classroom has been created for students from 13 to 25 years old, where Python is taught for free. From 2023 to 2024, 280 people successfully completed the courses, receiving certificates that open up new career prospects for them.

According to the latest data from the Bureau of National Statistics, the volume of IT services in the region has increased almost 2.5 times. This confirms that digital technologies are becoming an integral part of the economy, and the demand for IT specialists is growing rapidly.

The center has opened educational programs in key IT areas.:
