A large number of Armenian women work in the Information Technologies
(IT) sector, Bagrat Yengibaryan, Director of Enterprise Incubator
Foundation, has told Panorama.am.
According to him, in developed countries, women's involvement in IT
sector does not exceed 10 percent, while in Armenia it exceeds 40
percent.
Mr Yengibaryan noted that interest in IT sector has been growing in
recent years, with a large number of girls choosing programmer's
profession, and it is not by accident that in some IT companies, 60
percent of employees are women. It is a high figure. Recently
established Armenian IT companies are also run by women, he said.
The official did not deny that the IT sector is also attractive to
women due to high salaries, adding that it also shows that women are
competitive, that they are not inferior to men and are able to easily
compete with them.
