In late September, Franco Spicariello, Director of Public Policy at AWS Europe Mediterranean, and Kara Nalbandian, Business Development Manager at AWS Sovereign Cloud, visited Armenia. In Yerevan, they met with David Tadevosyan, Minister of High-Tech Industry and AI.
One of the key topics of discussion was the possibility of connecting Armenia to Amazon LEO — a low-Earth orbit satellite network designed to provide broadband internet access. The project could expand the country's telecommunications capabilities, especially where the development of traditional infrastructure faces difficulties.
The parties also considered further areas of cooperation in the technological sphere and artificial intelligence. Specific agreements on the timing of connection to Amazon LEO and the implementation of joint projects have not yet been disclosed.
