cloudITIBM has partnered with the U.S. Agency for International Development and the government of Armenia to unveil a new center in Armenia that will work to provide training courses to students in support of the development of the country’s information technology sector, the Public Radio of Armenia reported Thursday.

The 1,000 square-meter ISTC facility opened Thursday at Yerevan State University’s campus with new initiatives that include the Research Grant Program that will provide recipients access to IBM’s cloud infrastructure, the report added.
