An applied research center that helps people navigate a changing economy. We analyze what is happening, understand how technology is changing it, and help prepare for the future.
We do not simply offer services. We solve real problems faced by the state, business, and civil society in conditions of uncertainty.
Open to collaboration, expert dialogue, and joint projects. Write to us — we’ll tell you more and discuss how we can be of help.
Of course, the main topic of the new podcast is the 530 course and everything related to it. The guest is Askar Kysykov, Director of the Talap Center for Applied Research. We figure out what happened to tenge, we figure out all sorts of scenarios, we strongly argue about the base rate (here Eldar and Askar are antagonists!) and we are trying to figure out how to continue to live for us and you, ordinary Kazakhstanis who receive salaries in tenge.

More than 70% of Kazakhstanis perceive China positively. This was told by the specialists of the Center for Applied Research "TALAP". They conducted a public opinion poll and analyzed the results in comparison with previous years' reports.
The purpose of the study is to calculate the perception index of China in Kazakhstan in 2023, analyse its dynamics since 2020, and identify the determining factors based on the public opinion survey.
The first material opens the TALAP series and sets the global context: strategic foresight is becoming part of contemporary management practice.
The second material shows how TALAP is turning the global practice of strategic foresight into its own tool for Kazakhstan.
The third material documents a practical test of the approach against the economic agenda of Q1 2026.
