Ucom CEO Ralf Yirikian participated in the panel discussion "Cybersecurity as a National Priority" at the RISE Powered by Silicon Mountains conference, which brought together representatives of technology companies, government agencies, and the professional community.

During his speech, Yirikian emphasized that in the digital age, competitive advantage is determined not only by innovation but also by security. He noted that cyber protection is becoming an integral part of business sustainability and customer trust, and the development of the digital economy is impossible without reliable telecommunications infrastructure.

UEICT Executive Director Eduard Musayelyan added that the RISE initiative for the first time brings together science, engineering, innovation, and the defense industry on one platform, transforming ideas into practical technologies and creating opportunities for Armenia's high-tech development.
