Entrepreneur Adam Kablanian talks tech and wine in Armenia

Did you know that three of the embedded memory components in Apple’s first iPod were designed right here in Armenia? High-tech entrepreneur, executive, and investor Adam Kablanian does — it was his team of engineers behind that groundbreaking project. Kablanian sits down with CivilNet’s Mark Dovich to talk about how Armenia’s tech scene has evolved over the past two decades — and why the country’s ambition of becoming a regional tech hub requires a revamped educational system. They also touch on the Armenian Society of Fellows, a new initiative connecting industry leaders in Armenia with their counterparts in the diaspora, as well as Armenia’s burgeoning wine industry. 0:00 Armenia’s evolving tech sector 5:27 Improving Armenia’s education system 10:34 ASOF’s efforts to build ties with the diaspora 13:46 Armenia’s burgeoning wine industry 20:31 Comparing the tech and wine scenes #CivilNet #ՍիվիլՆեթ #civilnetbusiness - Subscribe to our channel: - Follow us on Instagram: - Follow us on Twitter: - Follow us on Telegram: - Find us on Facebook: - Check our website: © Նյութի հեղինակային իրավունքները պատկանում են Սիվիլիթաս հիմնադրամին: ՍիվիլՆեթի խմբագրական քաղաքականության համաձայն` արգելվում է օգտագործել ՍիվիլՆեթի նյութերը առանց պատշաճ հղման, ներբեռնել և այլ օնլայն հարթակից վերբեռնել ՍիվիլՆեթի պատրաստած և տարբերանշանը կրող տեսանյութերը` առանց համապատասխան համաձայնության: © Copyright of this report belongs to the Civilitas Foundation.
