YEREVAN, March 27. /ARKA/. Acba Bank is bringing its longstanding relations with its partners to a new level by launching the Acba Business Club, a platform, designed to help develop entrepreneurship in Armenia, create business links and expand opportunities for cooperation.
The first meeting of the business club brought together more than 600 business people who have joined Acba Business Club to listen to each other, to exchange experience and to establish new ties.
The special guest of the event was David Yan, the founder of ABBYY company, a member of the Band of Angels investor group, who is in the list of 200 richest people of Russia, compiled by the Russian edition of Forbes in 2021.
David Yan shared with the Armenian business community his own experience of success and failure in a speech entitled ‘How to succeed in business: determination or persistence? ‘
“It’s wonderful that such a business club has been created in Armenia enabling carriers of information and knowledge to share them with each other: intellect and wisdom combine, people make connections by listening to each other, new ideas are born. As they say, we now live in a “history book.” In recent weeks, humanity has crossed a new frontier that seemed impossible: ChatGPT technology has emerged. In a few years we will record that the years 2022-2023 were revolutionary in the history of the humanity and these changes are not compared to the creation of the Internet, but to a more important one – the invention of writing. Some business changes need to be made now,” David Yan said.
“At the start of the Acba Business Club, I would like to reiterate that we are ready to continue to work with the business community, listen to their demands and develop the business environment together. From the very beginning we considered our clients as partners, and even today I would like to describe those, who have joined Acba Business Club, as “partners,’ said Hakob Andreasyan, Acba Bank CEO.
“For us, Acba Business Club is a place where we can gather like-minded people, listen to them and share ideas. We hope that this platform will serve the good of business. We are confident that we will motivate people to share their experiences, which will help small businesses become better. We are confident that together we will make this all happen,” said Arsen Melkonyan, ACBA Bank Deputy CEO.
“Acba Business Club is a community that will help businesses grow faster. It is equipped with tools that will allow businesses to become more proficient and knowledgeable,” said Suren Hovhannisyan, head of SME and Agricultural Products Planning and Management at Acba Bank.
Joining the Acba Business Club, CEOs will be able to participate in many events, discussions as well as listen to guest speakers. This way they will help create environment for development of business world in Armenia.
