Destinations like the USA, Canada, and Europe are in the first place. Currently, more than 10,000 software developers and engineers are employed in 450 IT companies (95 percent of which in Yerevan, the capital city).

Every year the number of newly established IT companies and startups increases accordingly. This creates more than 600 new competitive jobs every year.
