China and Kazakhstan have signed more than 70 commercial agreements valued at about $15 billion during the World AI Conference, marking a major step in their expanding technology partnership. The deals cover artificial intelligence, data center development, battery manufacturing and digital asset-related infrastructure.
The agreement package highlights how both countries are linking industrial investment with digital growth. For China, the deals reinforce its role in regional technology cooperation. For Kazakhstan, they support a broader push to build the foundations needed for a larger digital economy.
A key theme is Kazakhstan’s effort to establish itself as a technology and digital asset hub in Central Asia. Investment in data centers and AI-related projects could help strengthen computing capacity, support new business activity and improve the country’s appeal for cross-border digital infrastructure projects.
The scale of the announcements suggests growing momentum behind long-term cooperation between the two neighbors. By combining AI initiatives with physical and digital infrastructure development, the latest agreements point to a broader strategy focused on regional connectivity, industrial modernization and future-facing technology investment.
