Samir Mammadov highlighted Azerbaijan’s achievements in digital development, mentioning full access to broadband internet, Tier III-level data centers, the new generation digital signature solution SIMA, and the MyGov platform, which have collectively given Azerbaijan a ‘very high’ e-government rating.

Additionally, cooperation has begun with EPAM, a leading IT company in the USA, on a new platform called MyGov Business, which will serve as a single window for state-business relations.

Extensive discussions were held on promoting long-term cooperation with member companies of the ‘Lincoln’ Club in B2B and B2G formats, opening company representatives in Azerbaijan, developing human capital, joint investment, and the creation of joint venture funds.
