Visang Education is expanding its presence in Uzbekistan's higher education market
by supplying its AI-based education platform to a second national university in the country.

Visang Education announced on the 13th that it signed a supply contract for its global education platform 'AllviA'
with Tashkent State University of Oriental Studies on June 30.

Under the agreement, Visang's Korean-language education program 'klass' will be introduced
into the university's Korean-language curriculum starting with the local academic term beginning in September.

The contract came together roughly five months after the two sides began reviewing the possibility of adopting the platform.
Tashkent State University of Oriental Studies had previously disclosed that, on February 6, its officials met with Visang Education representatives to discuss
the features of 'AllviA Connect Learning' and how it could be integrated into the curriculum.

Students using 'klass' will be able to study Korean before and after class using AI conversation practice and AI teaching assistant features.
Instructors, meanwhile, can manage learning progress, course content, and individual student activity records through the platform.

'AllviA' is a software-as-a-service (SaaS) education platform that combines
a learning management system (LMS), video-based classes, e-learning content creation, and AI conversational learning services.
It is designed to allow external educational content and features to be added in modular form.

Visang Education had previously supplied 'AllviA' to Uzbekistan's National Pedagogical University.
With this latest contract, the company now has two partner universities in the country,
extending its platform's reach beyond K-12 public education and into the higher education sector.

Uzbekistan is considered a country with strong demand for Korean-language learning,
driven largely by employment prospects and interest in studying in Korea.
According to the King Sejong Institute Foundation, seven King Sejong Institutes were operating in Uzbekistan as of 2025.
In addition, 12,025 Uzbek nationals are currently enrolled at universities in Korea
— the fourth-largest group after students from China, Vietnam, and Mongolia.
The number of Test of Proficiency in Korean (TOPIK) applicants in the country has also been on the rise.

Yeon Sang-heum, head of the Department of Korean Studies at the Higher Institute of Korean Studies at Tashkent State University of Oriental Studies, said,
"We expect 'AllviA' to give students a self-directed learning experience and a Korean-language learning environment that isn't limited by location."

Roh Joong-il, CEO of Visang Education's Global Company, said,
"'AllviA' is an operating system that runs offline and online classes together.
We will use AI and the platform to narrow gaps in educational opportunity and expand the overseas supply of K-edutech."
