ArmInfo. Information technologies and tourism are priority fields for
Armenia, Andre Andonian, an expert of the international consulting
company McKinsey & Company told journalists during the sitting of the
Armenian National Competitiveness Fund, Saturday. He said that the
company had assessed the Armenian economy earlier. These assessments
have undergone no changes, he added. Besides IT and tourism, Andonian
also qualified the diamond cutting field as a priority one.

Speaking of the Armenian National Competitiveness Fund’s programs,
Andonian pointed out that the projects of Varpetats district and Tatev
complex are very useful for Armenia, but they should be implemented
consistently.

To recall, in 2003 McKinsey & Company researched the main levers of
raising productivity in Armenia.
