As Tatler Kazakhstan embarks on its journey, the publication is set to redefine the cultural and social landscape of Central Asia.
From its glittering launch in December, Tatler Kazakhstan is now looking to expand its reach, strengthen Kazakhstan’s role as a centre of cultural influence and prepare for new editions in Turkey, Azerbaijan, and Uzbekistan in 2025.
The Tatler project marks another milestone in the entrepreneurial career of Freedom Holding Corp.’s founder and CEO, Timur Turlov.
“I am delighted that Tatler has entered the Turkic region and Kazakhstan has become a new dot on the map of one of the most famous and authoritative media brands. This is an important event and recognition of the professionalism of our team, which is ready to develop lifestyle journalism on a regional scale,” says Turlov.
Through a global lifestyle publication, Kazakhstan is strengthening its role as a centre of expertise, beauty, and creativity.
With a focus on highlighting the region’s creative successes and significant individuals, the magazine claims to be more than just a publication; it aspires to establish Kazakhstan as a trendsetter in lifestyle journalism, and a hub for regional innovation.
“I am proud of our talented people who are shaping the country’s image as a trendsetter,” Turlov said.
Meanwhile, Tatler Asia’s Chairman and CEO, Michel Lamuniere, praised the agreement to publish the magazine in Kazakhstan as a “significant milestone” in the company’s history.
The Tatler project also reflects Turlov’s commitment to nurturing talent from all walks of life.
Known for his philanthropic work in education and sport, Turlov is dedicated to creating opportunities for future leaders and encouraging other business leaders to follow his example.
The first issue of the magazine is now available at major retailers such as Kaspi Store, Ozon, Flip, Marwin and Arbuz.kz. “Read, be inspired and share your impressions!” Turlov told readers.
Tatler Kazakhstan, published in both Kazakh and Russian, will cater to a diverse audience with a digital edition and a robust social media presence. The first issue, themed “The Best of Kazakhstan” and “The Most Influential”, showcases a range of cultural achievements, from Nurlan Smagulov’s insights into the Almaty Museum of Arts project to an in-depth look at Kazakhstan’s fashion industry by Tim Ilyasov.
Rising stars such as filmmakers Katerina Suvorova and Aisultan Seitov have also been spotlighted alongside established names like actor Daniyar Alshinov and internationally acclaimed DJ Nazira Kasenova.
As the magazine continues to shine a spotlight on Kazakhstan’s brightest stars, this initiative is a testament to the country’s growing influence on the global stage.
“This is just the beginning,” said Turlov. “Kazakhstan is ready to lead the way in lifestyle journalism and set trends for the future.”
Tatler Asia was founded in 1977 and already has a presence in nine Asian markets, including Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, Macau, mainland China, Taiwan, and Vietnam.
