management services director, told today a news conference attended
by Basketball Federation President Hrachya Rostomyan and "Atis"
team’s Executive Director Arthur Nazaryan.

"The future of any business is closely linked to the state’s social
welfare, stability and level of education. That’s why, Converse
Bank attaches great importance to the implementation of programs
envisaging social-corporate responsibility in spheres of education,
culture and sports," Zohrabyan noted.

culture. The bank is also the general sponsor of "Fruitful Armenia"
