According to Kairat Akhmetov, this infrastructure is becoming a platform for the development of digital services and solutions based on artificial intelligence, supporting Kazakhstan's course towards the formation of an AI economy.

"To date, more than 3,700 kilometers of fiber-optic communication lines have been built. Support networks have been launched in 11 cities: Astana, Almaty, Shymkent, Aktobe, Aktau, Atyrau, Kostanay, Taraz, Turkestan, Oskemen, Semey. The FWA fixed wireless access infrastructure is developing, 160 out of 560 plus base stations in 12 cities are already operating," he explained.

At the moment, the company has invested over 100 billion tenge. It is planned to invest about 900 billion tenge more over the next 10 years.

"The infrastructure being created will become the technological basis of Super App Freedom, a universal digital platform combining financial, educational, medical, and trading services. Freedom Telecom is implementing digital twin technologies and drones to survey networks. Based on the 2.5-D model, we create virtual copies of the infrastructure, where each facility uses its own digital passport. This allowed us to reduce the design and survey time from 3-4 weeks to 3-4 days, as well as reduce the number of errors and inaccuracies. In the future, we are moving to the AI Driver Network, an intelligent network that analyzes, predicts loads and eliminates failures," said the head of the company.
