The V4-Azerbaijan Tech Bridge program features the 10 best startups in Azerbaijan

The EPA reports that ambassadors from countries supporting the program - Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia - spoke at the final event of the V4-Azerbaijan Tech Bridge program.

Polish Ambassador Rafal Poborski, who noted cooperation in the implementation of this initiative:

"This is a joint project, and it wouldn't have been realized without the support of our Azerbaijani friends and Visegrad partners. We believe that Azerbaijan's dynamic startup environment and skilled start-ups and investors can produce successful results by working with partners and partners in Europe. Poland is one of the leading countries in Europe because of its dynamic startup environment, and we can work on projects similar to developing cooperation with Azerbaijan."

The ambassador said that since the beginning of the program, Azerbaijani startups have been keenly interested in working there: "At first, more than 160 startups have applied for the program."

Later, Milan Laychek, Slovakia's ambassador to Azerbaijan, spoke at the event. 'We're always hearing the potential of young people, their healthy and new ideas, but mechanisms are important for the realization and presentation of these ideas. Today, technology and innovation play an important role in foreign policy, sometimes in shaping positions. Technology sometimes changes the lives of societies radically or slowly."

Tomas Torman, Hungary's ambassador to Azerbaijan, also thanked his Polish counterpart for the initiative.

"The role of diplomacy is to promote relations between countries, to support relations, to learn the potential in this direction." We have good relations with Azerbaijan. We want to further develop our good relationships that exist and we want to do that in the field of innovation as well. Those who have applied for the program, the number of startups, show that the project has been a success. The project has also created a new atmosphere for cooperation in innovation," the Hungarian ambassador stressed.

The Czech missionary leader in Azerbaijan also emphasized his appreciation for the project.

Eventually, the program introduced 10 of Azerbaijan's oldest startups, and international specialists will choose the winner among them.
