On 3rd of October the Minister of National Economy Timur Suleimenov, the Chairman of the Board of NCE RK "Atameken" Ablay Myrzakhmetov and the Chairman of the Management Board of the Holding "Baiterek" Aidar Arifkhanov signed a memorandum on the implementation of the "single window" state support for SMEs within the digital platform.
The parties will work together to develop a "single window" on measures of state support for SMEs within the digital platform. The text of the memorandum notes that the parties will work together to create a single digital platform that unites all measures of state support for small and medium-sized businesses on the principle of a "single window" within the framework of the Digital Kazakhstan program.

Currently, there are more than 20 institutions in Kazakhstan that provide entrepreneurs with various government support measures. But only about 15% of entrepreneurs know about them and use them. In this connection, in 2016 one of the priority directions of the activity of NCE RK "Atameken" was defined the project "Government for business", which should unite all services and measures to support entrepreneurs in a "single window". Since 3rd of November 2016, "Atameken" has launched the project "Government for Business" based on the digital platform Atameken Services (services.palata.kz).
Within the framework of the project, 8 categories of non-financial support services for entrepreneurs, 9 services in each category were automated. Since the beginning of the service, entrepreneurs have submitted more than 15,000 applications, of which 13,000 have already been submitted. The most popular non-financial support measures are: accounting and tax accounting, legal services. Withdrawing services through a "single window" allows to ensure equal access of entrepreneurs to all support measures and business development services. Also, the need for contact with people is eliminated and corruption risks are reduced.
Centers for Servicing Entrepreneurs (CEPs) and Business Support Centers (PSCs) provide uniform quality standards for the provision of services throughout the country, regardless of whether the city or the village of the applicant, already today an entrepreneur can electronically apply for services from anywhere in Kazakhstan and track the progress its execution.
