ArmTech 2009 – opportunity to show the world Armenia’s achievements in Hi Tech sphere

ArmTech 2009 conference scheduled in San Jose, California, for November 5-8 is a good platform for showing the world Armenia’s achievements in Hi tech sphere, Armen Grigoryan, Executive Secretary of IT Development Support Council under RA Government, told journalists in Yerevan. “This is already the third ArmTech conference which brings together Armenian and foreign IT representatives for discussing the main trends of the sphere,” he noted. Apart from IT development issues, conference will focus on questions like higher education, science and innovation, Internet protection etc.

“The conference which will last 3 days will be attended by representatives from 40-50 Armenian companies. That’s a good chance for them to introduce their services and invite investors to Armenia. Of course, no results will be achieved within a day, but if we manage to attract a couple of companies, that will already be success,” Grigoryan stressed.

At that he noted that Armenian Government attaches much significance to ArmTech 2009 and has provided financial assistance for its organization. Armenian delegation participating in conference will be headed by Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan. “The conference enables us to exchange experience with other countries, and we are currently carrying out work for organizing the event in France and UAE,” Armen Grigoryan said.
