DILIJAN. – Clusters need to be established to develop Armenia’s Information Technology (IT) and telecommunication sector, Peter Wilson, innovations and development technologies expert at USAID, stated during an informal meeting on the IT sector, which is held in Armenia’s Dilijan city on Saturday.   

He characterized these clusters as a geographic concentration of mutually combined companies, where the companies compete and cooperate at the same time.  

The American expert also noted that the new technologies contribute to having larger networks, but, in any case, a cluster cannot be imagined without geographic borders.    

And as an example of such cluster, Wilson pointed to the Silicon Valley in the US.
