MICROSOFT OPENS REPRESENTATION IN ARMENIA
Microsoft Company will open its office in Armenia shortly, Microsoft
Director for Strategy in Russia and CIS Igor Hambartsoumyan informs ARMINFO.
He said the company intends to develop partner ties and channels, first of
all. Hambartsoumyan said Microsoft’s entry to new markets often intensifies
their development due to transfer of acknowledged business skills. That is
why the entry of this largest world company to Armenia and its software and
solutions on the basis of own platforms will undoubtedly have an effect on
the Armenian market. Hambartsoumyan said that in CIS the company is
represented only in Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan. Besides, Microsoft
intends to open its representation in Azerbaijan.
