This study analyzes the impact of digital technologies on the socio-economic development of the Republic of
Uzbekistan in 2021–2026. The objective is to assess the effectiveness of state digital transformation policy and identify
structural imbalances that hinder the equitable distribution of “digital dividends.” The methodological framework is based
on the analysis of regulatory documents, official statistical data, international indices (UN, World Bank), and secondary
processing of industry reports. The findings indicate significant progress: the EGDI index reached a “very high” level
(63rd place in 2024), the number of public service portal users increased to 12.5 million, and IT service exports reached
$344 million in 2023. However, a persistent digital divide remains between Tashkent and the regions (209 versus less
than 70 internet subscribers per 100 people), along with low levels of digital literacy among the rural population (below
30%). The study concludes that Uzbekistan is transitioning from a phase of accelerated reforms to a stage of deep
transformation, where overcoming the digital divide becomes the key challenge.
