It was interesting to find my publications from 2003 and 2006 at my parents' house, from when I was pursuing my Bachelor's degree at the Technical University of Moldova. It felt like a glimpse into a previous life. It's fascinating that even back then, questions about #energypricing and #sustainable #procurement intrigued me. Now, they have become my profession and mission in the current European project Interreg NWE DeCarb-Pro.

Bukhara, one of Central Asia's oldest cities, has long stood as a historical waypoint on the Great Silk Road, where caravans laden with goods moved between East and West. Today, this city is witnessing a new chapter in its storied past—one defined by industrial advancement and economic transformation. Not far from the ancient bazaars of Bukhara, a modern facility belonging to Knauf, a leading German manufacturer of building materials, symbolizes Uzbekistan’s shift towards becoming a global economic hub. Knauf, a company renowned for its high-quality construction materials, has firmly established itself in Uzbekistan, investing approximately €130 mn. The recent opening of its third factory in Fergana, with a production capacity of 260,000 tons of gypsum board annually, underscores the company's long-term commitment to the country. The products from these facilities are exported to neighboring nations like Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, and Afghanistan, reinforcing Uzbekistan’s growing role in regional trade. Today, Knauf is just one of 215 enterprises with German investment in Uzbekistan, marking a notable rise in Western business interest since the economic reforms introduced by President Shavkat Mirziyoyev in 2016. #uzbekistan #germany #knauf #foreign #investments #development
