    E-commerce<\/h3>\n
    \n\n\t\t\t\t\t E-commerce has become a priority area of EGED Programme to respond to a priority need of the Government of Uzbekistan, since the country’s expenditures on digital technologies are relatively low. Hence there are opportunities for rapid growth.
    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n

    E-commerce will help to empower the private sector and streamline the flow of goods and services. EGED Programme conducted the diagnostics of the current state of e-commerce in the region, which led to the development of the Support Roadmap, detailed down to the district level, as well as a guide for implementation. E-commerce is a vast area of the economy with multiple entry points for government-owned enterprises, which is expected to emerge as an area with high-added value potential.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n
