During this period, growth in the non-oil industry amounted to 15.7%, in agriculture -13%, non-oil exports increased by 15%. Entrepreneurs, using advanced technology and equipment, are creating farms and agroparks in the regions, which are already 22 already. By the end of this year, 11 more will begin to operate. An additional 2.4 billion manat will be allocated for the implementation of these projects. To date, about 4 thousand projects have been implemented, as a result of which 3.4 billion manat was invested in the country's economy.
The newspaper "Yeni Musavat" discusses the topic of the dependence of the economy on oil. For more than 20 years, energy carriers account for 90% of Azerbaijan"s exports. Moreover, this figure has not changed for so many years. However, figures regarding imports are changing, for 6 months of this year, imports increased by $ 7 billion.
The site "Yeni Sabah.az" discusses the topic of business of officials on the background of the scandal in the "Relax" recreation center in Lerik. Doing business with officials only harms the economy. This is one of the factors behind the growth of the shadow economy.The case in Lerik showed that the rights and obligations of existing companies are not equally guaranteed before the law. Serious checks should be carried out at such large state-owned taxpayers as Azerishig, AZAL, Azerigaz, etc. One of the consequences of bureaucratic entrepreneurship is tax evasion.

The Business Continuity test of Azercell's CMG project was conducted in the Alat Free Economic Zone. A real-time Business Continuity test of the CMG – Crisis Management Group of Azercell, which is a leading mobile operator in the country, was conducted in the Alat Free Economic Zone. For implementation of the first tests Azercell was partnering with Azercosmos, Aztelekom, and Baktelecom. During the simulation, a crisis was created by completely cutting off communication in the designated area. Technical teams from the regions arrived at the scene during the crisis drill, initiating efforts to restore communication. Initially, groups installed two mobile Base Stations in the area, providing 2G service to a limited number of subscribers using facilities of the national satellite. In the next stage, high-speed internet, 3G, and 4G networks were restored, and the area was equipped with 100-megabit Wi-Fi service. It's worth noting that in comparison to previous tests, the recovery time was reduced by half in this simulation test. All mentioned recovery operations were carried out by teams from the regions and the groups of experts specially trained by Azercell.
