The Declaration of cooperation was signed between the Ministry of Digital Development, Innovations and Aerospace Industry of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) under the UN and National Information Technologies JSC in the field of digital technologies under the GovStack initiative.

GovStack is a global initiative of the United Nations aimed at sharing experiences and using the digitalization products of the member countries for implementation within the international community.

As a commitment under cooperation, NITEC JSC will establish an office to support GovStack in the region, which will serve as a center for knowledge sharing, capacity building and technical support for the states of the entire Central Asian and Caucasian region, thanks to which countries will be able to effectively use the capabilities of digital technologies to address their unique issues.

As part of the initiative, NITEC JSC will share its IT solutions not only in the region, but also with the entire global community. Currently, work is underway to recognize NITEC JSC e-Government IT solutions as digital public goods (DPG).  These IT products will be available in the global open-source.    

"Being a leader in GovTech and providing online services in the region, we have a social responsibility to share our expertise and best practices with our partners. Our cooperation between the Ministry of Digital Development, NITEC JSC and ITU under the UN is aimed at promoting technological progress and reducing digital inequality. Together we will go on sharing knowledge and working on creation of new digital products," said Rostislav Konyashkin, Chairman of the Board, National Information Technologies JSC.
