Emma Arakelyan was a featured speaker at the Diaspora as a Bridge: Connecting Armenian Exports to Global Markets panel discussion, hosted at the Meridian Exhibition Center in Yerevan. The panel was on September 19th.
There were 1,000+ participants from 55 countries at the Summit.
With over 20 years of leadership in global business strategy, IT transformation, and venture capital, Emma has been instrumental in driving Armenia’s growth in tech and investment sectors. As CEO & Founder of Orion Worldwide Innovations and a Venture Partner at Covenant Venture Capital, she’s leading the charge in connecting Armenia with global markets. The key topic of her speech was Digital Julfa Network program.
Digital Julfa Network program is reviving Armenian trade and innovation on a global scale, building on centuries-old traditions that have preserved our heritage and strengthened family businesses. We are reigniting that legacy by connecting the Armenian diaspora with local businesses to create new opportunities, wealth, and advocacy.
Just as the Armenians of New Julfa once traded with over 40 countries, we’re reviving those historic partnerships to restore our formidable market presence. Our journey begins with a roadmap that leads to our first international event in June 2025.
