    21:31 - 20.05.13


    Armenia's Government and the International Business Machines (IBM)
    Corporation have signed a memorandum of understanding to study the
    possibilities of long-term cooperation.

    Armenia's Minister of Economy Vahram Avetisyan and Kirill Korniliev,
    Country General Manager, IBM Russia & CIS, signed the memorandum in
    the presence of Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan.

    The Armenian premier welcomed the mutually beneficial cooperation with the IBM.

    `I am sure that the cooperation will give new impetus to IT
    development in Armenia, which is among our government's priorities,'
    the premier said.

    Long-term cooperation implies the government unlocking the innovative
    potential of educational institutions, IT organizations and small and
    medium enterprises. Under the memorandum, the sides intend to draft an
    agreement on establishing a Center for IBM Innovative Solutions and
    Technologies in Armenia.

    The sides will discuss Armenian educational institutions' involvement
    in IBM education programs.

    `In Armenia, like throughout the world, the IT sector is one of the
    most important economic sectors, which greatly influences the other
    sectors' efficiency. By combining the IBM's best international
    experience and the local experience we intend to establish long-term
    cooperation, which will contribute to steady economic growth and
    development of the country's potential, a guarantee of competition in
    the international market. We are happy about this opportunity of
    long-term cooperation, which is supposed to enhance the Armenian IT
    sector's efficiency and ensure the country's economic growth,' said
    Kirill Korniliev.
