The collaboration establishes a clear logistical and conceptual chain for businesses and investors in Autumn 2026:
- The First Stage — CAITME 2026 (September 8–10, Tashkent): The largest showcase of Industry 4.0 equipment. Here, delegates and international investors will be able to evaluate live advanced machinery for spinning, weaving, finishing, and factory digitalization.
- The Second Stage — International Textile Forum Tajikistan-2026 (September 23, Dushanbe): A premier platform in Dushanbe where technological solutions will receive financial backing. Ready-made feasibility studies (FS) for creating new full-cycle textile manufacturers will be presented here.
Focus on Environmental Safety and Digital Traceability
The central theme of the joint agenda will be the concept of a "green supply chain". In an era of strict requirements from global brands regarding eco-friendly production, Tajikistan offers investors a unique advantage—the use of 98% renewable hydropower. Together with CAITME experts and the International Textile Manufacturers Federation (ITMF), the forum in Dushanbe will analyze detailed case studies on factory automation, artificial intelligence integration, and reducing the carbon footprint of textile products.
