HISTORY After to years I went to Moscow to present the result of the work done. The technological unit created by me was unique, complex, I am not boasting at all, but it was an authorial invention. It was the working that became a push for the doctoral thesis defense. And I managed it successfully. THE FIRST STEP ON THE WAY TO BUSINESS To be honest, working, doing science and bearing responsibility for the family at the same time is difficult, especially in finances. To be honest, working, doing science and bearing responsibility for the family at the same time is difficult, especially in finances. And in 1994 I made a decision to leave the science. My friend — the CEO of Uzbek-Chinese JV specializing on polypropylene bags production — invited me to pursue manufacturing. That work was unknown to me without any relation to science, but I agreed. As a result, within a short period of time I became the Director of technical division, and the factory started working at full capacity. Over time, due to working hard, modernization and high output the factory passed into my ownership. My elder son Farkhad advised me to take a loan. And we managed it! It was in 1996, and we spent the whole amount of money on modern equipment purchase. We created everything virtually from zero: production lines, work space. Moreover, I improved the equipment myself, my knowledge in Science was of a great help. Such kind of technical modernization helped the factory to run faultlessly, and we reimbursed that loan quickly. I began construct factories, and the questions regarding client search, sales and contracts were my son’s business. I consider, particularly on this stage of my life our way to UZTEX GROUP began. CHILDREN The contribution of my children to the business prosperity is great. I have four children: my sons Farkhad, Doniyor, Dilshod and my daughter Sadokat. My elder son Farkhad is our financial <strong>eng</strong>ine, he tackles the problems, concerning finance. Dilshod is a professional builder, he is aware of all subtleties and modern trend in this sector, he managed factories construction. Doniyor is a specialist in production. He manages all the processes inside the company, watches cost reduction and productivity growth. My daughter Sadokat is our support and the best counselor in everything. My children are my happiness, the grew up, became successful, and they became parents, as well. The new generation of the Mamatdjanovs family is growingwe are preparing our successors. My grandchildren take interest in our work. ANSWERING THE QUESTION “HOW TO BRING UP SOCH TALENTED AND SUCCESSFUL CHILDREN?” I WOULD SAY THAT FIRST OF ALL IT IS UP TO FATE, IF YOU HAVE A SPARK OF TALENT AND SKILLS INSIDE, THEN SUCH PERSON WILL BE SUCCESSFUL. Certainly, something can be corrected though upbringing. When a child himself is a thought starter, then a little push can lead to your business being run. Recently Farkhad has been to Italy where he signed a contract with Italian business partners, and there was a photo of him and an Italian in the newspaper. I saw it and trembled with joy. Can you imagine, they wrote about my son in the Italian newspaper! And this is just one of his achievements, but there are lots of them. I know that my children realize how to work and what should be emphasized if you are in the charge of a huge factory, and not just one factory. First of all, it is care for personnel, providing all the working facilities for the workforce: hot meals, uniforms, a lounge, sports facilities. Now it is not just our business, as each plant is hundreds of work places, hundreds of our staff members’ families, now it is our duty to take care of people who trust us. We are doing charity work as well. Thus, before opening up textile factory in Shavat, we helped a disabled person in his business start-up by purchasing equipment. And nowadays, his business is prospering. I and my children place productivity goals higher than personal ones. The work absorbs our time and attention. For instance, my son Dilshod has started to build his house, as before all the investments were attracted on business development, and personal wishes were relegated to a later stage. Sometimes I ask myself: why do I need it? Why to work so much, if every m inute is time lined? The answer is simple: business is an inevitable part of our life. WHAT IS OUR LIFE? The meaning of life is that if you were born, do something useful, leave a mark. Time is a great gift, which should be appreciated. You should do something useful for yourself, your family, your makhallya, for your country. THE SECRET OF SUCCESS? In order to achieve something you should work hard. The main thing is to value your time. They say, if you missed your time, you missed your happiness. You should be modest, look around, and think of other people’s opinions. I always try to help and never to refuse. Thank God, my children are also ready to help everybody. 22
