26th int’l ELECOMP kicks off in Tehran
Speaking on the sidelines of the inaugural ceremony of the exhibition, Zarepour said that the speed of mobile internet in Iran has doubled since the administration of President Ebrahim Raeisi took office in August 2021, Tasnim news agency reported.
He referred to platforms that must be created for this purpose and said the development of communication infrastructure is one of the main platforms for the development of electronic commerce, dubbed ‘e-commerce’.
“Better Future for Digital Economy” is the motto of this year’s exhibition, he said, adding that the current administration has predicted a good package for ameliorating and improving the future of digital economy in the Seventh Five-Year Economic and Cultural Development Plan.
The minister pointed to the upcoming forum of ICT ministers of member states of the Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO) in Tehran, saying, “I asked some ICT ministers of other countries to attend the forum in order to set up an infrastructure for taking advantage of each other’s capacities.”
Suitable ways have been provided for domestic knowledge-based companies in order to export their products overseas, he further said.
Over $200 million worth of contracts have been concluded with foreign companies over the past six months, said Zarepour, hoping that his ministry would pave the way for the export of other similar products
overseas.
