VEON Ltd. has reaffirmed its commitment to the Digital Qazaqstan Strategy during a meeting between Group CEO Kaan Terzioglu and President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev of Kazakhstan. The discussions took place following the 38th plenary session of the Foreign Investors Council (FIC) in Astana. This strategic alignment aims to position Kazakhstan as a creator and exporter of digital innovation through significant infrastructure investments.

Direct to Cell Technology Launch

A key outcome of the collaboration is the progress toward launching Direct to Cell technology in Kazakhstan. Developed with the Ministry of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Development, this hybrid solution combines terrestrial infrastructure with satellite technology. It is designed to provide 100% coverage of the country. Availability for Kazakhstani citizens is planned for August 2026.

Infrastructure and Cloud Investments

VEON and its subsidiary Beeline Kazakhstan are advancing several digital infrastructure projects. In December 2025, Beeline Kazakhstan began constructing a Tier III Hyper Cloud data center in Almaty. This facility is intended to anchor a sovereign cloud and AI compute ecosystem for the enterprise and public sectors, with operations targeted to begin by the end of 2026.

Beeline Kazakhstan has also partnered with Starlink Direct to Cell to advance satellite connectivity. The company completed Central Asia's first field test of voice and SMS services over the network. A commercial rollout is planned to begin with messaging services later in the year.

Strategic Vision

Kaan Terzioglu, VEON Group CEO, emphasized the long-term nature of the partnership. "We remain focused on investing in Kazakhstan and building the infrastructure of the future, from telecommunications networks to computing power and AI-based digital services," he said. "Our goal is to help Kazakhstan become not just a consumer of advanced technologies, but a creator, developer and exporter of digital innovation."

During the visit, Terzioglu also met with Zhaslan Madiyev, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of AI and Digital Development of Kazakhstan, to further discuss these initiatives.
