Реальный рост ВВП Казахстана за восемь месяцев составил 4,1% и сохраняется на этом уровне третий месяц подряд.На заседании штаба по обеспечению экономического роста под председательством заместителя Премьер-министра – министра национальной экономики Серика Жумангарина рассмотрели оперативные итоги развития экономики страны за восемь месяцев.Как было отмечено, рост экономики по-прежнему обеспечивается, прежде всего, устойчивой динамикой несырьевого сектора. Обрабатывающая промышленность увеличила объемы производства на 8,4%. Наиболее высокие темпы зафиксированы в машиностроении (21,2%), производстве продуктов питания (12,9%), химической промышленности (27,3%), производстве строительных материалов (7%), готовых металлических изделий (33,3%), резиновых и пластмассовых изделий (+18,5%), легкой промышленности (+70,4%) и фармацевтике (38,9%), в целом промышленное производство выросло на 2,6%. Значительный рост также отмечается в строительстве (15,6%), транспорте и складировании (7,3%), торговле (6%), сельском хозяйстве (5,2%) и связи (4,4%).На заседании штаба детально рассмотрели ситуацию в основных отраслях обрабатывающей промышленности. В металлургии, как известно, предприятия сегодня работают с загрузкой мощностей на уровне 90–100%. Несмотря на высокую загрузку, в черной металлургии рост  производства составил 2% за счет увеличения выпуска чугуна и стали.  В машиностроении по итогам восьми месяцев рост составил 21,2%. Высокая динамика обеспечена, в том числе, за счет автопрома (+27,7%), включающего производство легковых автомобилей, автобусов, грузовой и специальной техники. В производстве подвижного состава при значительном увеличении выпуска пассажирских вагонов и платформ отмечается снижение производства грузовых полувагонов и локомотивов.Серик Жумангарин поручил провести отдельное совещание, чтобы детально разобраться в причинах снижения и определить возможности для поддержания темпов роста машиностроения.«Металлургия занимает более 40% в обрабатывающей промышленности. Поэтому темпы роста в металлургии имеют особое значение для роста обработки. Не менее важно поддерживать динамику машиностроения – второй по доле отрасли в обработке. Этим направлениям мы будем уделять самое пристальное внимание до конца года», — подчеркнул Серик Жумангарин.В сельском хозяйстве третий месяц подряд отмечаются активные темпы  роста:   5,2% за восемь месяцев (5% за январь-июль, 4,4% за январь-июнь). Такая динамика во многом связана с сезонным фактором – разгаром уборочной кампании и поступлением нового урожая.  В производстве  продуктов питания также зафиксирован значительный рост –  12,9 %. В нефтегазовой отрасли наблюдается постепенное восстановление объемов добычи нефти. ИФО за восемь месяцев составил 91,6%, добыто 61,7 млн тонн нефти, против 91,1% и 53,2 млн тонн по итогам января–июля 2026 года. Скорректированный прогноз добычи нефти на 2026 год составляет 96 млн тонн, что соответствует ИФО 91,6%.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/economy/press/news/details/1291535?lang=ru

В Астане состоялся Международный саммит социальных предпринимателей 2026 на тему «Социальные инвестиции для устойчивого будущего». Мероприятие объединило представителей государственных органов, бизнеса, международных организаций, экспертного сообщества и социальных предпринимателей.Организаторами Саммита выступили Министерство национальной экономики РК, акимат города Астаны, SocialInnovation Hub и Ассоциация социальных инноваторов РК.Выступая на Саммите, вице-министр национальной экономики Ерлан Сагнаев отметил важность обмена опытом и обсуждения конкретных предложений по дальнейшему развитию социального предпринимательства. По его словам, государство продолжает работу по созданию благоприятных условий для бизнеса. Сегодня в Реестре субъектов социального предпринимательства зарегистрировано 1 776 субъектов. За год их количество выросло вдвое. В рамках государственной поддержки с 31 августа социальные предприниматели участвуют в программе «Іскераймақ» без отраслевых ограничений. Для них предусмотрено субсидирование 50% номинальной ставки по кредитам до 200 млн тенге сроком до трех лет. Также социальным предпринимателям предоставляются гранты до 5 млн тенге, льготные помещения и меры нефинансовой поддержки.Отдельное внимание на Саммите уделили цифровым инструментам. В частности, представлен Реестр обязательных требований в сфере предпринимательства, работающий на основе искусственного интеллекта. Сервис систематизирует требования законодательства к бизнесу и позволяет предпринимателям получать актуальную информацию по своему виду деятельности из единого источника.«Сервис уже доступен на цифровой AI-платформе для бизнеса, а в ближайшее время будет запущен и на портале eGov Business. Для социальных предпринимателей это особенно важно. Как правило, у вас нет отдельного юриста в штате, поэтому время, которое раньше приходилось тратить на изучение регуляторных требований, теперь можно направить непосредственно на развитие проектов и решение социальных задач», - отметил Ерлан Сагнаев.Для дальнейшего совершенствования мер поддержки в Министерстве национальной экономики создана рабочая группа по вопросам развития социального предпринимательства. В ее состав вошли представители государственных органов, НПП «Атамекен», профильных организаций и экспертного сообщества. Основные направления работы группы – совершенствование правоприменительной практики, выработка единых подходов к включению в Реестр и подготовка предложений по внесению изменений в Предпринимательский кодекс и инструменты поддержки.Международная сессия Саммита была посвящена зарубежному опыту, социальным инвестициям и возможностям международного партнерства. В ней приняли участие представители ООН, ПРООН, Всемирного банка, ЕБРР, посольств Канады и Японии, TİKA, Catalyst Now, Impact Hub Network, Senior Expert Service и других организаций.В рамках Information Fair социальным предпринимателям представили финансовые, образовательные и консультационные инструменты поддержки. В мероприятии приняли участие НПП «Атамекен», Фонд «Даму», ЕБРР, QazInnovations, SES, Astana Hub, АО «Kazakh Export» и другие организации.Одним из ключевых событий Саммита стала церемония BestSocial Entrepreneur 2026 Awards. Победителями стали ДауренБекгожаев (ITMLab) в сфере инноваций, ГульбахытБальмагамбетова (Neurolink) в сфере инклюзии, Андрей Зелевский («Переработка пластикового мусора») в сфере экологии, Алексей Кирюхов («VALEO для всех») в сфере образования.
