A 62-story Trump Tower is planned for central Tbilisi as part of a $2 billion development that will cover about 600,000 square meters, Georgian Dream Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze said at the project's presentation.

The 280-meter tower is expected to be completed by 2031, with the wider Downtown Tbilisi development scheduled for completion in 2033.

The project involves The Trump Organization and the Washington office of architecture firm Gensler, alongside Georgian companies Archi, Invia, Safir Organization, Finvest, Blackstone Capital and Vector Group.

Kobakhidze presented the development as a sign of Georgia's growing ability to attract large international investments. He pointed to economic growth over the past five years, saying the country's economy had expanded by almost 2.5 times in dollar terms.

He also credited the government's economic policy, describing Georgia as an open economy and pointing to its location between Europe and Asia as an advantage in attracting international business.

The project is expected to create thousands of jobs and generate long-term contracts for Georgia's construction sector. Kobakhidze also linked the development to the country's tourism industry and its efforts to attract more international investors.

The wider project will be integrated with the renovated Central Park. Kobakhidze said the government would continue supporting large-scale, long-term investments and working with international companies on projects in Georgia.

The participation of The Trump Organization, Gensler and the Georgian companies involved was presented as part of a broader partnership between international brands and local businesses.

"It is safe to say that today is a historic day for our country and for the development of our capital," Kobakhidze said.

He described the project as another prominent symbol of Georgia's economic strength and progress and said its development would mark an important step for the capital.
