Date and Time

Forging strong economic ties through energy.

On Thursday, April 6, we welcomed Ambassador Lilit Makunts to discuss doing business in Armenia. With the most liberal investment regime among Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) countries, Armenia provides U.S.-based companies an attractive locale for operations targeting European and Asian markets.

Armenia's target industries include information technology, tourism, renewable energy, mining, and agriculture. The country offers a favorable tax system, a growing tech ecosystem, and a young and tech-savvy population. Additionally, the Armenian government is actively promoting foreign investment with potential opportunities for public-private partnerships on major infrastructure projects.

During this event, experts shared their insights on Armenia's business environment, target industries, and market opportunities.
