US-Turkmenistan Business Council delegation to visit Ashgabat in November

The US-Turkmenistan Business Council (USTBC) will hold a business mission in Ashgabat on 4–5 November, according to an announcement on the Council's official website. The visit is being organised in coordination with the US Department of State, which will send a delegation to the Turkmen capital to take part in annual bilateral consultations between the two governments.

The trip continues a series of business contacts between Turkmenistan and the United States. In June 2026, the Council's executive director, Eric Stewart, visited Ashgabat at the head of a delegation of American companies. On 3 June, a round table was held at the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Turkmenistan with representatives of about ten US companies. The Turkmen side was led by Deputy Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers Nokerguly Atagulyyev.

The Council was established in 2008 and is headquartered in Washington. According to its official website, its activities aim to develop trade and investment ties between Turkmenistan and the United States.
