According to the regional administration, the talks focused on introducing integrated engineering solutions for industrial enterprises, expanding electrification and automation systems, improving energy efficiency and establishing long-term cooperation in these areas.
"In recent years, effective cooperation has been established between the Fergana region and Turkish investors," Bozorov said during the meeting.
He noted that Fergana is one of Uzbekistan's leading industrial regions and said the local authorities have created favorable conditions for investment projects while providing comprehensive support for promising business initiatives.
Özer presented the company's ongoing projects in Türkiye and Uzbekistan and outlined its experience in industrial engineering, electrification and automation technologies, according to the statement.
