🟡Yandex has been operating in Armenia for over 8 years. Armenia is among the top 3 largest international markets for the company in terms of the number of services launched.

🟡Among these initiatives are programming schools for high school students, supported by the EIF Foundation in Vanadzor and Gyumri; Joint programs with Armenian Code Academy, data science courses at RAU, and an intensive course on generative AI at YSU. Many graduates of these programs work in the IT field in Armenia and develop services worldwide.
