On July 9–10, 2026, the capital of Kazakhstan, Astana, will host the "CENTRAL ASIA TRANSPORT, LOGISTICS & INVESTMENT FORUM 2026," an international conference and exhibition set to shape the future of the region's transport and logistics system. According to the "Turkmen Logistics" Association, this large-scale event holds strategic importance for Turkmenistan’s transport and freight forwarding companies in expanding international cooperation.

This forum is more than just a meeting; it is a primary platform for modernizing Central Asian transit corridors, attracting new investments to the sector, and strengthening regional integration. Over two days, representatives of government agencies from more than 25 countries, international financial institutions, major logistics operators, and over 200 leading experts will share their expertise. B2B meetings will provide Turkmen entrepreneurs with the opportunity to establish direct business relations and secure new contracts.

As international analysts noted, the platform aims to accelerate the region's integration into global trade routes. Furthermore, the 10% discount on participation fees offered to members of the "Turkmen Logistics" Association (TLA) will serve as an additional incentive for the more active representation of the country's private sector in this international initiative.
