SHYMKENT. KAZINFORM - The announcement of the Year of Youth is a timely step in our ever-changing world, believes Rashid Ayupov, Chairman of the Board of "Shymkent" Social and Entrepreneurship Corporation JSC, Kazinform reports.

In his words, the President's initiative gives young Kazakhstanis a boost of energy to work and achieve the goals they set.

"No matter how you slice it, our goal is to ensure the youth has favorable conditions. President Nursultan Nazarbayev reminded that Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs founded their companies on their own and noted Kazakhstan boasts such talents as well. We must give green light to young entrepreneurs. Since the day of its establishment "Shymkent" Social and Entrepreneurship Corporation has been paying special attention to youth. We have recently organized the Business zhastar meeting where students got a chance to meet and chat with renowned specialists from many walks of life and gain useful experience. In early February we will hold a festival of ideas for schoolchildren, students of colleges and tertiary institutions. We will also launch a business school where our youngsters will explore the fundamentals of entrepreneurship," Ayupov said.
