ArmInfo. Team Telecom Armenia will support  TUMO's mission (TUMO Center for Creative Technologies)  to make modern technology education accessible to all young people in Armenia.

According to the company's press service, under the Memorandum signed  today by Team Telecom Armenia CEO Hayk Yesayan and TUMO CEO Marie Lou  Papazian, Team will provide high-speed Internet at a 50% discount to  TUMO centers and boxes in Armenia, with the plan to make it  free-of-charge down the line and serve all TUMO locations. 

Thanks to the innovative NGN network, which is being built throughout  Armenia, Team will be able to provide ultra-high-speed Internet for  the uninterrupted educational process of TUMO students.

Attaching the importance of the start of cooperation, Team Telecom  Armenia CEO Hayk Yesayan emphasized that promoting the educational  and technological sectors is a priority for the company.

"Team and TUMO share the same mission but operate in different  fields. In our case, it is the provision of high-quality and  ultra-high-speed Internet for all residents of Armenia, and in the  case of TUMO, it is the provision of modern technological education.  By joining forces, we will enhance the quality of education for young  people across all regions of Armenia and keep the communities  active," he said.

At the moment, 10 TUMO boxes and centers are provided with TUMO  ultra-high-speed Internet. The process of providing Internet will be  long-term, covering all centers and boxes, more openly within the  framework of the "TUMO Armenia" project.  In turn, Marie Lou Papazian  noted: "The involvement of the private sector in education  development is as crucial as internet access for 21st-century  education. Through such partnerships, we aim to make future skills  accessible to all Armenian youth sooner," added TUMO CEO Marie Lou  Papazian.  Continuing to realize its goal of ensuring equal access to  innovative education throughout Armenia, TUMO plans to build a  network of 16 centers and 110 boxes, providing a weekly educational  program for 80 thousand schoolchildren within the framework of the  program.

According to the source, the Memorandum establishes cooperation with  the EU-funded Tumo lab project and the 42 Yerevan programming  schools, within the framework of which Team specialists will hold  meetings and educational programs with schoolchildren participating  in these projects.
