On the 4th of February took place the official presentation and exhibition of the first Armenian tablet ArmTab. The RA Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan, the founder of “Technology and Science Dynamics” inc. Vahan Chakarian and  the President of  MINNO Corp. Erik Ryan made opening speeches. 
 “The concept of Armtab was first introduced at the “DigiTec Expo 2013” information and telecommunication technologies exhibition and at the GITI-2013 regional event it took the “Best Multimedia Project” and “Software of the Year” awards thus attracting everybody’s attention. Moreover, due to sustainable support from the RA Government it was possible to make the “Technology and Science” inc. the first registered production company in the “ALLIANCE” free economic zone in December 2013. By laying a milestone in the tablet production, based on the proposal of the RA Government, today we create incentives for more ambitious, comprehensive and strategic partnership aiming at introducing the ArmTab tablets to the RA school system starting from 2015. Our colleagues have already developed Armenian operation system for ArmTab tablets, as well as educational applications, whose number, we believe, will increase day by day. Thus, the Ministry of Education and Science of the RA will acquire a new and effective tool for creating serious environment for Armenian educational content, which will also create wide range of opportunities for cooperation between companies. We will take every effort to launch the production process in the second trimester of 2014, in the near future aiming at the design and development of PCB boards in Armenia, which are the basis of tablets,” said the founder of “Technology and Science Dinamics” Inc. Vahan Chakaryan.
The President of  MINNO Corp, Eric Ryan admitted that this investment program was one of the best in terms of both the support provided by the RA Government and the volume, as well as the staff and partners involved. For this reason, Minno Tablet will ensure the transfer of financial resources, technologies and other possible support necessary for the project's successful launch and development. “I admire the technological ideas and potential of Armenia and strongly believe that very soon, also through our support, Armenia will gain wide recognition all over the world as a high tech country,” mentioned Erik Ryan.
The Minister of Education and Science, Armen Ashotyan, and the Minister of Economy, Vahram Avanesyan, stressed in their speeches the opportunities that are created in Armenia for the development of innovative education programs and the economy through the launch of ArmTab.
Currently ArmTab Company actively cooperates with local organizations. In particular, the "Aras" operating system and the "Vostan" user interface  by "Instigate Design" company will be introduced in ArmTab tablets, as well as the educational attachments by "Locator", "Bitlis-MEN" companies and Mlab ECA Mobile Solutions regional laboratory.
