The 13th Forum of Machine Builders of Kazakhstan is underway in Astana, serving as a key industry platform to discuss the current state and future prospects of the mechanical engineering sector, Qazinform News Agency reports.
According to Makhambet Mendigaliyev, Deputy Director of the Union of Machine Builders of Kazakhstan, expanding export potential remains one of the sector’s strategic priorities.
He noted that over the past five years, Kazakhstan has significantly strengthened its position in foreign markets.
“Exports of engineering products have more than doubled, rising from 1.3 to 3.1 billion tenge, and this growth is expected to continue,” he said.
Exports of industrial and energy equipment are developing particularly actively, with domestic enterprises demonstrating strong competitiveness and steady growth in these segments.
Mendigaliyev also highlighted strong demand for railway engineering products, noting that the railway cluster in Kazakhstan is developing especially dynamically and is already showing solid results in international markets.
“The sector has significant potential, and we plan to further expand it in the coming years,” he added.
