Armenia's position in the international information technology market,
a school, where necessary specialists will be prepared, is expected
to be established in Armenia from January 2007. He said that with
that aim the Dutch government is ready to provide grant amounting to
half million euro.

companies which may use such expensive devices. But according to
him, in case of demand the devices will be provided to the Armenian
companies by their prime cost. He said the Dutch government and the
