DILIJAN. - Clusters need to be established to develop Armenia's
Information Technology (IT) and telecommunication sector, Peter
Wilson, innovations and development technologies expert at USAID,
stated during an informal meeting on the IT sector, which is held in
Armenia's Dilijan city on Saturday.
He characterized these clusters as a geographic concentration of
mutually combined companies, where the companies compete and cooperate
at the same time.
The American expert also noted that the new technologies contribute to
having larger networks, but, in any case, a cluster cannot be imagined
without geographic borders.
And as an example of such cluster, Wilson pointed to the Silicon
Valley in the US.
