«Investments in the Future of Turkmenistan» — The International Forum on Attracting Investments to the Private Sector (IFT) is now being held for the second time and has already established itself as a confident, results-oriented platform. The forum creates opportunities for constructive negotiations between the business community, international investors, and government agencies. The first forum drew international attention to Turkmenistan’s investment potential and confirmed the effectiveness of its practical, cooperation-focused format. In 2025, IFT brought together over 500 participants from 25 countries, including representatives of more than 40 international organizations, over 180 foreign companies, more than 180 local companies, and over 50 government agencies. The forum program included targeted B2B and B2G meetings and negotiations, resulting in the signing of 21 framework agreements. Building on these achievements, IFT 2026 aims to attract an even broader international audience, expand the business and investment program, and develop more partnerships and investment agreements. This will contribute to the sustainable development of Turkmenistan’s private sector and the national economy as a whole.

Why IFT 2026?
IFT 2026 is a practical, results-driven business and investment platform specifically designed to facilitate direct cooperation between the private sector and government agencies. Participants are given opportunities to find partners, engage with relevant government bodies, and gain sector-specific access to B2B and B2G meetings, complemented by B2C cooperation possibilities. The forum is held in conjunction with an international exhibition dedicated to the 18th anniversary of the Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs of Turkmenistan, further expanding business connections and market access opportunities. Participation in IFT 2026 enables investors and companies to enter markets of interest, become familiar with legislation and institutions, create business opportunities in Turkmenistan, establish joint ventures, and acquire — all in one place — the practical tools needed to implement investment projects.
