Abstract
The scientific article is devoted to a comprehensive assessment of market demand for science-intensive technological equipment in the industrial sectors of Uzbekistan, based on the analysis of existing and planned regional development investment programs. The study is grounded in systemic, institutional, comparative-analytical, platform-ecosystem, and economic-mathematical approaches. Key technological gaps, structural shifts, and sectoral priorities that determine the demand for equipment have been identified. A mapping of regional investment projects has been conducted to aggregate demand and identify the need for critically important equipment. The results of the study form a methodological foundation for the high-tech services provided by modern scientific and production centers (SPCs), aimed at accelerating the localization of import-substituting products.
