Государством последовательно реализуется комплекс мер, направленных на поддержку и улучшение условий для бизнеса, расширение деловой активности и укрепление экономического потенциала», — говорится в обращении.Подчеркнуты перспективы дальнейшего развития предпринимательства.«В новой Конституции, одним из основополагающих принципов деятельности государства является повышение благосостояния народа, продвижение идеи ответственного, созидательного патриотизма. Отечественные товаропроизводители являются ярким примером реализации этих принципов. Для дальнейшего устойчивого роста предпринимательской активности будет продолжена поддержка производственных инициатив, включая импортозамещение и наращивание экспортного потенциала, внедрение современных технологий и создание новых точек экономического роста в регионах», — подчеркнуто в тексте приветственного слова Премьер-министра. В числе реализуемых мер господдержки особое внимание уделяется расширению доступа бизнеса к финансированию и инструментам льготного кредитования. В 2025 году через Фонд «Даму» бизнесу было направлено более 560 млрд тенге. Благодаря этому мерами господдержки охвачено 13 тыс. проектов МСБ на общую сумму кредитов 2,2 трлн тенге.

Ключевая роль в реализации программы отведена институтам холдинга «Байтерек» и Фонду «Даму». Для повышения доступности государственной поддержки расширены инструменты гарантирования, усилены рыночные механизмы поддержки на понятных и долгосрочных условиях, а также запущена программа комплексной поддержки микро- и малого бизнеса в малых городах и селах «Іскер аймақ». Кроме того, на базе региональных филиалов Фонда «Даму» созданы единые фронт-офисы по всем программам поддержки холдинга «Байтерек», а для отдаленных районов запускаются мобильные фронт-офисы.Отдельное внимание уделяется сопровождению предпринимателей, столкнувшихся с трудностями. В этой связи при Фонде «Даму» формируются «реабилитационные центры», где бизнес сможет получить финансовую, консультационную и организационную поддержку для восстановления устойчивости.От имени Правительства Республики Казахстан вице-премьер выразил благодарность отечественным предпринимателям за их вклад в укрепление экономического потенциала и престижа страны. В ходе посещения выставки Серик Жумангарин ознакомился с деятельностью ряда представленных предприятий из различных регионов страны.Среди них – мебельная фабрика «Феникс» из Павлодара, производящая школьную мебель, офисные кресла и стулья для социальных и коммерческих объектов.
