About RISE Powered by Silicon Mountains
The Union of Employers of Information and Communication Technologies (UEICT)was founded in 2015 by leading industry players and today represents more than 130 member companies.
Since 2019, UEICT has been organizing the annual Silicon Mountains Tech Summit, which has grown into one of Armenia’s premier high-tech events. To date, the summit has brought together over 100 speakers and more than 6,000 participants, connecting Armenia’s technology ecosystem with global leaders, innovators, and decision-makers.
Beginning in 2024, UEICT expanded the geographical reach of Silicon Mountains beyond Yerevan. For the first time, the summit was held in Gyumri, Shirak region, followed by the 2025 forum at the COAF SMART Center in Lori, further strengthening regional engagement and innovation across Armenia.
The name RISE stands for Research, Innovation, Science, and Engineering and serves as a major platform for showcasing Armenian high-tech products.
Starting in 2026, following recommendations from the members of the Union of Employers of Information and Communication Technologies (UEICT) and numerous partners, the Silicon Mountains series is expanding to include a new spring event—Silicon Mountains RISE—under the slogan “We Are Our Mountains: Rise.” The event is aimed at presenting the technological products, innovative solutions, scientific achievements, and ideas of Armenian companies, research centers, and engineering teams, as well as strengthening Armenia’s image as a high-tech country and accelerating the further development of the sector.
The exhibition will also feature a forum with three panel discussions: Cybersecurity, Military Industry, and Engineering Solutions.
