ArmInfo. The global economy is entering a new phase based on artificial intelligence (AI) systems, in which small countries can gain a strategic advantage if they set the right priorities and effectively seize the moment. This was stated by Armenian Minister of High-Tech Industry Mkhitar Hayrapetyan, speaking at the TEDx forum - "Vision of the Future."
In this context, he highlighted three key resources that will be crucial for small countries: energy, high- performance computing power, and human capital.
The minister emphasized that in the AI era, Armenia's success depends on the synchronous and consistent development of these three resources. According to him, with a sound strategy, the country can strengthen its position in the global technological environment and become a competitive player in the emerging new economic reality.
The TEDx "Vision of the Future" forum was held on April 12 in Yerevan. The event's main goal was to bring together experts and active participants from various fields, inspire them to create new ideas and solutions, and stimulate dialogue on technological, social, and cultural change. The forum brought together entrepreneurs, tech industry representatives, startup founders, company executives, and public figures, who shared their views on the development of society, business, and innovation.
