Abstract

This thesis investigates the role of enterprise expansion and investment activity in regional economic development in Uzbekistan during 2010–2024. The research is based on panel data covering 14 regions and applies a fixed-effects regression model with year effects. The findings indicate that enterprise expansion and investment growth positively contribute to regional economic growth, whereas the employment rate does not demonstrate statistical significance. The results suggest that supporting enterprise activity and investment processes may strengthen regional economic development and improve growth sustainability in Uzbekistan.
