Uzbekistan’s Club is an international non-governmental non-profit organisation that inspires the wider public to strive for great achievements by celebrating human capital as Uzbekistan’s most important asset.
The mission of Uzbekistan’s Club is to showcase intellectual, entrepreneurial and creative Uzbekistanis – whether they live in the country or abroad – together with their ideas and proposals concerning the development of their homeland and their paths of personal and professional growth.
To this end, we turn to media projects, high-level conferences and forums, and other creative approaches. We firmly believe that Uzbekistanis are capable of great things and that their achievements deserve to be presented as they merit.
The international NGO Uzbekistan’s Club supports efforts aimed at developing human capital in the country and promoting Uzbekistan worldwide as a land of talents. It brings together the projects of government bodies, socially responsible companies and organisations, and opinion leaders in this field around the country image concept “Uzbekistan. Land of Talents”.
