/PanARMENIAN.Net/ DigiTec on wheels exhibition, scheduled for March
3, was delayed indefinitely, UITE chairman Karen Vardanyan told
PanARMENIAN.Net.

"We found out that the demand for internet technologies is still low
in Armenian regions and has yet to be increased. This is the reason
why only a few companies sought to participate in the exhibition,"
he noted.

"Lack of competition in Armenia’s ICT market might be another reason
behind it. Given low number of sponsors, we tried to organize the
exhibition with the Union’s means, yet our resources turned out
insufficient," UITE chairman explained.

The pilot part of DigiTec on Wheels was held between December 21 and
25, 2009 in several cities of Armenia. The exhibition aimed to promote
the development and dissemination of information and communication
technologies in the regions of Armenia, as well as ICT education.
