Uzbekistan Launches Imkon VC Platform for Startup Investment and Crowdfunding

Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) — Uzbekistan has officially launched a new venture capital and crowdfunding platform, Imkon VC.

The project’s launch marks a significant milestone for the country’s rapidly growing startup ecosystem and aims to expand access to investment in innovative projects.

Imkon VC is designed to democratize venture financing, providing startup founders with a new, efficient tool for raising capital. The platform simplifies the investment process, lowers entry barriers, and engages a broader audience in supporting promising technology companies.

The founder of Imkon VC, Muhammad Khalil, is also the creator of Startup Garage — one of Uzbekistan’s leading venture studios and startup hubs, which has supported dozens of early-stage projects. Drawing on his extensive experience with startups, Khalil initiated Imkon VC to address one of the regional market’s key challenges: limited access to capital and insufficient investor participation in the innovation sector.

The Imkon VC platform allows investors, both experienced and new, to discover and support promising startups in a convenient digital format. With streamlined legal procedures and a lowered minimum investment threshold, the platform opens the venture investment market to a wider audience and creates additional sources of funding for early-stage companies.

“We believe everyone should have the opportunity to participate in the growth of innovative companies. Our mission is to democratize startup investments and provide founders with a transparent, scalable, and effective mechanism for raising funds and engaging with investors,” said Muhammad Khalil.

For startups, Imkon VC offers a comprehensive solution for securing investments, connecting them with a diverse pool of investors and helping build a community of supporters. The platform supports the investment process at every stage, reducing operational and legal barriers for both founders and investors.

The launch of Imkon VC is seen as an important step in developing Uzbekistan’s venture ecosystem and creating a more inclusive model for financing innovation. The project broadens opportunities for participation in the country’s innovation economy for both entrepreneurs and investors.
