This study explores the economic significance of developing women’s intellectual and professional potential and examines their role in the international market. The paper emphasizes the link between women’s empowerment and sustainable economic growth, highlighting how increased female participation in entrepreneurship and decision-making contributes to national competitiveness. Using empirical data from Uzbekistan, including labor market statistics, entrepreneurship indicators, and international trade participation, the research identifies key factors that enhance women’s economic activity and challenges that hinder their full integration. Econometric analysis demonstrates a positive correlation between women’s economic engagement and macroeconomic indicators such as GDP growth and export performance. The findings underscore the importance of targeted policies and programs to promote women’s intellectual development and facilitate their active participation in global markets. The study contributes to the literature by providing evidence-based insights on leveraging women’s potential for inclusive economic development.
