TASHKENT, Uzbekistan, May 19.
Peter Karpaty, CEO of Hungarian company MVM EGI Zrt, welcomed the
signing of the first agreement establishing a free economic zone
for Hungarian companies in Uzbekistan, Trend reports.
“I truly believe that I will do my best to be one of the first
European companies to be part of it.”
Speaking after a series of meetings with Uzbek representatives,
Karpaty praised the professionalism, dynamism, and open-minded
approach of the Uzbek side. He described Uzbekistan as the
company’s most successful current project worldwide.
“The project’s momentum and the cooperative spirit we’ve seen
here represent the best practice in our field.”
Karpaty emphasized that MVM EGI is active globally, but
Uzbekistan stands out for its exceptional pace of development and
supportive economic environment: “If we have a chance to contribute
to this global transformation, this is a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity.”
Reflecting on the growing ease of cooperation, he noted that
only ten years ago it was far more difficult to establish ties with
Uzbekistan. Now, the country not only offers opportunities for
trade, he said, but also makes it feasible for companies to
establish a permanent presence — thanks to favorable conditions for
technology transfer and long-term investment.
