From the road
How a Roadshow day looks
Program
Five tracks that travel with us
Masterclasses, workshops, lectures and open question sessions, held in Uzbek and, where possible, in Russian and English. Every stop ends with networking and an interactive session with prizes.
Personal Brand
How and why to keep your profile alive, grow a personal brand and widen the network that later brings the offers.
AI Alchemist
How to use artificial intelligence in daily work so it saves hours instead of producing noise.
Self Boost
Tools for personal productivity that survive contact with a real week, not just a clean calendar.
Startup Incubator
How startups actually work, from the first idea to the moment it turns into something people use.
Built around the city
Each stop is shaped by what the local audience asks for, so the program is never a copy of the previous one.
Topics may vary depending on audience demand and speaker availability. Among the additions: project and product management, Learn2Learn, the skill of learning quickly, and working with Excel.
Special focus
Supporting women in IT
A dedicated part of the Roadshow program is built for women taking their first steps toward a career in technology. The point is simple: to make the industry look reachable, and to show enough real examples that the first step stops feeling like a leap.

That is the first such event in Kokand. Such an event never happened before. Thank you so much for considering people from Kokand too.
My opinion is that the team is very friendly. I really liked the topic. The training was very exciting. I thank the organizers for such a community.
I hope these kind of events will be more as well as in Fergana, not only in Tashkent. It was really enjoyable.
In my opinion, they are specialists for us. The conference is amazing and I found my profession.

Put your brand on the road
A partner joins the whole season, not a single evening. Below is what the road gives back.
Reach outside the capital
Regional audiences that almost no IT brand speaks to directly, met in their own city rather than through a screen.
The stage and the room
A slot in the program, a stand at the venue and direct contact with people who came to learn on purpose.
Coverage that travels
Every stop is covered on LinkedIn, Instagram, Telegram and YouTube, and picked up by regional media.
