“Today we announced the launch of the National Accelerator.

The focal points include Government Performance, Capacity Building and Leadership Programs, Programming, and Transformation. Among these, Capacity Building stands out prominently. In partnership with the Academy of Public Administration under the President of Kazakhstan, this initiative focuses on grooming leaders within state bodies through the Executive Leadership Program offered by the Mohammed bin Rashid School of Government.
As part of this endeavor, Kazakhstan will dispatch digital vice ministers to the UAE for training sessions aimed at familiarizing them with cutting-edge approaches and techniques in public administration, particularly those leveraging artificial intelligence.
During the meeting, there were presentations showcasing the latest advancements in digitization, startups, and the initiatives undertaken by the Astana Hub International Technopark of IT Startups.
