ITM Uzbekistan to be organized in odd years

'ITM Uzbekistan', the first of which will be held between September 12-15, 2023, will be organized in the following odd years such as 2025, 2027, and so on. The exhibition calendar was created by taking into account the dates of the exhibitions organized in the same sector in different countries of the world and in Europe and the benefits of the sector.

'ITM Uzbekistan' will be the Meeting Point of Textile and Garment Machinery Manufacturers in Central Asia

The experience and know-how that made ITM Exhibition a global brand will be transferred to 'ITM Uzbekistan Exhibition'. It will be one of the most important events in the world, especially in Central Asia and Turkic Republics, just like ITM Exhibition. 'ITM Uzbekistan' will bring together the world's leading textile and garment technology manufacturers with global investors. Many new business agreements will be signed at the exhibition where world textile technology leaders will demonstrate their latest innovations.



Tashkent New Expo Center will be Central Asia's Gateway to the World

New Expo Center, built in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan, will host the most important events of both Central Asia and Turkic Republics. New Expo Center, where many national and international events will be held, will be the gateway of Central Asia to the world. The exhibition center, consisting of a total area of 44 thousand square meters and two stages, was built with the latest technology, taking into account all needs. The new exhibition center, which includes cafes/restaurants, resting areas, meeting, congress, seminar and exhibition halls, is an important attraction center with its proximity to the new airport under construction in the capital and the facilities where the international Olympic Games will be held.
