On October 22 “Rostelecom” Armenia organized the awarding ceremony for the winners of the student contest announced by the company ahead of September. The ceremony was held  at the central sales and service center of the company where the students were awarded by the CEO of “Rostelecom” Armenia Hayk Faramazyan.

“Each student  uses technological innovations regardless their specialization. The contest was aimed at reminding once again about  the contribution they may have in the process of further technological developments: it is very important for us to reveal all those opportunities and applications, they see in their everyday life and would like to use. I am sure many of their ideas will be implied  in new startups in  future, and the founders of which, why not, may be students themselves”, - mentioned the CEO of “Rostelecom” Armenia Hayk Faramazyan.
