Questions
Straight answers.
Where should a European company start in Central Asia?
It depends on your sector. Kazakhstan is often the first step, and Uzbekistan is opening fast. We compare them with you.
Do I need to speak Russian?
It helps, but many international businesses work in English. We help with translation and local support.
Can you introduce us to government counterparts?
Where it fits your project, yes. Government and business doors are part of what we open. Every Go deal is screened against EU sanctions.
Do you give immigration advice?
No. Advice comes only from regulated lawyers licensed locally. We coordinate them and run your file with you.

It depends on what you need. The 15-minute intro call is free.
