This study explores how small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) contribute to innovation, employment, andeconomic diversifcation in Uzbekistan, emphasizing their growing role in export development. In line with the country’s2021–2025 National Export Strategy, the research investigates government initiatives, barriers faced by SMEs, and theirpotential to enhance global market competitiveness. A descriptive research design was employed using secondary datafrom national reports, trade statistics, and international organizations such as the World Bank and the Asian DevelopmentBank. The fndings reveal that SMEs account for 65% of textile exports, 72% of agricultural exports, 55% of IT exports, and85% of handicraft exports—demonstrating a strong role in export diversifcation. Despite this progress, challenges remainin access to fnance, infrastructure quality, and compliance with international standards. Government measures, includingthe E-Export Hub and UzTrade platform, have improved export readiness among SMEs. However, reliance on secondarydata limits detailed insight into individual frm experiences. The study highlights the importance of continuous institutionalsupport and forward-looking policies to sustain SME-led export growth and strengthen Uzbekistan’s integration into theglobal economy.
