Armenian Tech Investor Alexander Smbatyan Acquires Global Tech Event Company EMERGE 🚀Alexander Smbatyan has
acquired EMERGE, a global tech event company connecting the tech ecosystems of Eastern Europe and Central Asia since its inception in 2017.
Over the past seven years, EMERGE has hosted events with over 20,000 attendees, spotlighting emerging tech hubs like Minsk, Yerevan, Istanbul, and Dubai.
The conference has facilitated startups raising over $30 million, including VOCHI, which raised $1.3 million at EMERGE and was later acquired by Pinterest.
Alexander will lead the company forward, while EMERGE's co-founder Anna Sholina will stay on as a minority shareholder.
The next EMERGE conference is scheduled for this autumn in Yerevan, Armenia, promising to build on the success of the 2022 event in Yerevan.
Congrats to Alexander and EMERGE team on achieving this milestone and we look forward to seeing more success stories coming from this partnership.
