American-Uzbek Business and Investment Council Held Inaugural Meeting in Tashkent

The American-Uzbek Business and Investment Council convened for the first time on February 7, 2026, bringing together Co-Chairs Saida Mirziyoyeva and U.S. Special Envoy Sergio Gor for a session that set the tone for the Council's practical agenda.

Talks centered on strengthening commercial diplomacy, coordinating investment projects, and laying the groundwork for a dedicated development fund designed to drive cooperation in strategic industries.

The meeting marked the Council's transition from a diplomatic commitment to an operational body - with both sides ready to move from agreements on paper to projects on the ground.
