MICROSOFT INNOVATION FORUM TO BE HELD IN YEREVAN
ARKA
JUne 12, 2008

A forum of innovations is to be held in Armenia by the Microsoft
Company in cooperation with the DigiTec Business forum on June 26-27.

Director of the Microsoft office in Armenia Grigor Barseghyan reported
that the forum is aimed to inform individuals, government institutions
and business companies of the importance of innovations.

"This year we decided to extend the traditional days of innovations
into a forum and combine it with the DigiTec Business forum, as most
of the products and services to be presented at the forum are based
on Microsoft platforms and largely used by the country’s business
sector," Barseghyan said.

He pointed out that the participants in the forum will discuss
problems of innovations, present new products and the policy of the
Microsoft Company.

Microsoft traditionally organizes the forum not only in Armenia, but
also in all the parts of the world the company has its representative
offices.

Barseghyan reported that among the participants in the forum will
be Veronika Prikrylova, Microwoft Director General for Armenia,
Azerbaijan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Malta, Macedonia and Cyprus,
representatives of the Hewlett-Packard and Intel companies, as well
as a number of local companies.

The development of this field is impossible to imagine without
innovations, as they are of paramount importance, especially for
countries lacking natural resources. Innovations enhance countries’
productivity and competitiveness, Barseghyan said.

He pointed out that the company’s priority task is to attract as
many prospective users of IT technologies as possible to the forum
to inform them of the solutions and advantages of applying them.

"We are positioning ourselves as one of the world’s most innovative
companies, which supplies the innovations to users by means of its
local partners. At the forum we will act as one team," Barseghyan said.

During the DigiTec Business forum to be held on June 26-27, the
business potential of information technologies will be presented.

About 3,000 businessmen and statesmen are expected to take part in
the forum behind closed doors.

An exhibition will also be held, and various IT companies will present
their solutions for the banking and financial sectors, mining industry,
small and medium-sized enterprises, tourist, trade, construction,
cargo transportation, and medical sectors.

The DigiTec Business forum has been organized by the Union of
Information Technology Enterprises, (UITE), with the assistance of
the RA Government, Union of Manufacturers and Businessmen of Armenia
(UMBA), Union of Banks of Armenia.

The information sponsors of the forum are the Novosti-Armenia

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
