The goals of the Armenian Virtual Bridge program are practical and there are components of acceleration. This is what head of a unit of the Armenian General Benevolent Union in Silicon Valley Yervand Zoryan said today.

According to him, the program will help small, yet successful startups that ensure entry into the global market. “The idea of acceleration is not new, but there will be a group method, not an individual one,” he declared.

According to Zoryan, in the first phase (September-October), the first 15 companies will undergo training in Silicon Valley, and another 15 companies will participate in training courses in November and December. They will not only gain knowledge required for the development of international cooperation and skills in engagement of investments and will join the ecosystem of Silicon Valley.

Zoryan informed that well-known specialists, including representatives of investment corporations, university professors and the founders of IT companies have been engaged as moderators to work with the beneficiary companies of the program.
