From September 23 to 26, the Uzbekistan Information and Communication Technology Week ("ICT WEEK") was grandly held. The Global Computing Alliance (GCC), as China's first international industrial and standards organization in the computing field, was invited to participate in the event, attracting over a thousand international participants for exchanges. During the event, GCC collaborated with member organizations including Tashkent University of Information Technology (TUIT) to jointly release the "Global Computing Industry Development Research Report (Central Asia Special)" and delivered a keynote speech titled "Al Computing Industry Pulse: Trends, Practices, and Opportunities".

As Uzbekistan's largest annual IT event, ICT WEEK has spanned 21 years and witnessed the evolution of information and communication technologies (ICT) in Uzbekistan and Central Asia. The event brings together leading international companies through forums, summits, and specialized discussions, exploring cutting-edge trends, innovative applications, and solutions in global ICT development.

GCC participated in the exhibition under the theme "New Architecture, New Standards, New Ecosystem", featuring dedicated zones aligned with three core business pillars. The alliance showcased over 20 groundbreaking achievements, demonstrating its standardization progress, architectural innovations, and collaborative ecosystem value in computing infrastructure. Through concrete actions, it has injected momentum into global computing industry synergy while charting a new course for the intelligent computing sector's ecological development.

Through this exhibition, GCC will have face-to-face communication with local government departments, academic institutions and enterprise representatives, which will help GCC to deeply understand the market demand of Uzbekistan and Central Asia, better gather global computing industry chain resources, and inject new vitality into the development of global computing industry.

During the exhibition, GCC, in collaboration with member organizations including TUIT of the University of Information Technology in Tashkent, jointly released the "Global Computing Industry Development Research Report (Central Asia Special Topic)". The report provides an in-depth analysis of global computing industry trends and China's practices in developing advanced computing capabilities, explores the close relationship between the computing industry and the digital economy, elaborates on the significant value of computing power for global economic development, and offers crucial guidance to promote the advancement of the global computing sector.
