About the city

Building the future
of urban living

Qonaev is rapidly evolving into a modern smart city. Through partnerships between local government and technology companies, the city is pioneering digital transformation in Kazakhstan’s public sector — from AI-assisted document processing to real-time city analytics.

Our vision

One platform connecting citizens, government, and technology — making city services transparent, accessible, and intelligent.

Almaty Region Hub

Qonaev is the administrative center of Almaty Region, strategically located near the largest city in Kazakhstan. The city serves as a gateway between the economic heart of the country and the growing southeastern corridor.

AI-Driven Governance

One of the first cities in Kazakhstan to integrate AI systems into government operations. From automated document classification to predictive infrastructure analytics, Qonaev is setting the standard for data-driven public administration.

Citizen-First Approach

Every digital service is designed with citizens in mind — accessible without an account, available in three languages, and built to reduce friction between people and their local government.
