ArmInfo.This year, the DigiTec 2023 technology exhibition will be held in Yerevan from October 13 to 15 at the Meridian exhibition center under the slogan "Technology is everywhere". On October 10, at a meeting with journalists, Sargis Karapetyan, director of the "Union of Advanced Technology Enterprises" (UATE), the traditional organizer of the exhibition, said.
He said that over 120 IT companies will take part in the exhibition, of which more than 30 are startups, the participation of which is subsidized by UATE, and the participation of another 10 by the Ministry of High- Technological Industry. At the same time, more than 10 international companies, or rather their representative offices in Russia, which, due to well-known events, relocated to Armenia, will take part in the exhibition. This year, as Karapetyan noted, international media, including Forbes, Independent, etc., are expected to visit for the first time.
The head of the Union said that within the framework of the exhibition, the organizers tried to cover companies in the technology sector working in all areas that are represented in Armenia, ranging from drone manufacturing, electric vehicles to software developers, outsourcing, as well as research and development organizations.
It is noteworthy that DigiTech 2023 intends to provide support to Artsakh's IT community based on the situation created around our compatriots. In particular, a separate Artsakh Career Expo pavilion will operate within the framework of the exhibition to promote employment of our compatriots from Artsakh. In this regard, Karapetyan noted that UATE, as well as members of the Union, have various employment programs and are ready to present their vacancies. Speaking about one of the partners, Armenian Code Academy, he noted that the latter has retraining and employment programs specifically for Artsakh residents.
At the same time, he spoke about an interesting initiative for start-up IT companies. The organizers decided to organize meetings for startups with international investors, thereby providing them with the opportunity to interest the latter and present their potential. These meetings, which can last no more than 1 minute, will be organized daily from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m..
