Turkic States Technology Reception
London Tech Week 2026

On 9 June 2026, an invitation-only evening reception was hosted at the Residence of the Ambassador of the Republic of Türkiye at 69 Portland Place, London. Held during London Tech Week, the gathering brought together senior delegations from four Turkic nations with distinguished guests from the United Kingdom’s technology, investment and government communities. The purpose was not exhibition floor visibility, but direct, high-trust conversations that opened pathways between the participating ecosystems and the UK market.

Senior representatives — including ambassadors, trade officials and technology leaders — attended from Türkiye as host, together with Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and the Kyrgyz Republic. They were joined by senior UK guests from industry, investment and government. Together the four nations represent a combined population of more than 150 million and some of the world’s fastest-rising technology ecosystems. The intimate residence setting was deliberate: limited capacity kept every conversation senior, direct and consequential.

Attendance was strictly by invitation and non-transferable, with places confirmed in advance against the guest list. Capacity was constrained both by the dimensions of the Residence and by the need to represent all four delegations equitably. In that setting the reception functioned as a relationship-building forum rather than a trade-show event, and formed one of the official high-level engagements of Türkiye’s London Tech Week 2026 national participation.
