An applied research center that helps people navigate a changing economy. We analyze what is happening, understand how technology is changing it, and help prepare for the future.
We do not simply offer services. We solve real problems faced by the state, business, and civil society in conditions of uncertainty.
Open to collaboration, expert dialogue, and joint projects. Write to us — we’ll tell you more and discuss how we can be of help.
The “Economic Multiplier” series. Part 1. Why is Kazakhstan’s largest private business investing in Kostanay, and why was the investment forum held on a factory floor? We examine how the region is moving from a raw-material model towards a complex cross-sector system in which private capital accounts for 80% of investment and a single industrial initiative can trigger a chain reaction across related sectors.
The “Economic Multiplier” series. Part 2. The real effect of investment is measured not by the sum of individual projects, but by how they reinforce one another. How do the automotive industry, deep agricultural processing, wind generation and a dry port combine into a single economic cluster? We examine the structural shift in Kostanay Region, where growth in one sector creates reliable demand for the others.
The “Economic Multiplier” series. Part 3. A tonne of grain costs KZT 85,000, while products made through deep processing can be worth up to KZT 500,000. How is a traditionally agricultural region industrialising its rural economy? We show how robotic farms, bioethanol, freeze-drying and agricultural drones are building longer value chains and transforming the region’s core sector.
