Aktobe is an investment attractive region with enormous economic potential. In the industrial production today it is among the top three regions. The core industries are mining and manufacturing. The industrial character is determined by the development of oil and gas industry, metallurgy, mechanical engineering. Outlook is good too for the development of the construction industry, chemical industry, agri-business, transportation and logistics services.
The oblast is a leader in the state program AIID 2010-2014. On the industrialization map of Aktobe, 68 innovative projects are entered, the total sum of KZT 631.5 billion, creating 9.9 thousand permanent jobs.

In four districts a pilot project is under implementation on sheep-breeding. Livestock industry is under development, and by 2016, the region plans to increase meat export up to 16 thousand tons per year.
Small businesses - the driving force

In total over 2010-2012, KZT 3.6 billion was budgeted for the program, including 1.7 billion in this year that has been duly expended. This-year tax revenues will be about KZT 2 billion. Budget receipts from small and medium business went 23.4% up to make KZT 56 billion.
