00:30 Thanks to the grant,

00:31 Almahul has acquired production facilities and developed technologies

00:35 for breeding new climate resistant plant material.

00:54 As Kazakhstan strives to build a more diversified and competitive economy,

01:05 innovation can help boost the private sector and create new jobs.

01:22 The fostering productive innovation project is already having a positive impact,

01:27 especially for startup companies.

01:33 developed a unique platform designed to rehabilitate patients

01:36 after a stroke through groundbreaking AI powered software.

01:41 We developed exoskeleton with intelligent controls and we also

01:46 try to read the signals from the brain.

01:48 The UN recognized the startup's invention as one

01:51 of the world's top 20 innovative solutions.

01:57 Starting from 2021,

01:58 we'll be accessing around 400 to 500 hospitals.

02:02 It's not only about the cities,

02:03 we are concentrating in rural areas,

02:06 villages with a population of 200,

02:08 or 30,000 people.

02:09 The project has helped improve the quality of

02:11 scientific research and its relevance to market needs,

02:15 research and development spending,

02:16 and collaboration between universities and industry.

02:21 The World Bank's consistent and targeted support over the

02:24 past 12 years under the Technology Commercialization Project.

02:29 And now through the fostering Productive innovations project has been

02:32 helping Kazakhstan move up on the global innovation marketplace.

02:38 The project has also introduced market-oriented approaches in
