Rector of Inha University in Tashkent Bobur Abdullaev took part in the panel discussion of the Future Intelligence Forum: “Digital Economy, Technology & Governance in the Age of AI”

The discussion focused on issues that are directly related to the development of the digital economy today:
– how to transform the training of IT specialists so that graduates can not only work with ready-made AI tools but also create and implement their own solutions;
– how to establish effective cooperation between universities and companies;
– and what is needed for university research to turn into real products and startups.

The practical connection between education and industry was also discussed separately. The experience of Inha University in Tashkent demonstrates the importance of this approach: students receive technological training, work on applied tasks, and develop competencies that are in demand in the digital economy.

Such platforms allow universities and industry representatives to jointly discuss how to connect education, applied research, and the real needs of the technology sector, creating conditions for the emergence of new solutions and specialists in the field of AI.
