"If people studied at YSU, that is very good. But if they were lucky enough to study at the Institute of Physics, even better," Tiran Hakobyan, a graduate of the YSU Institute of Physics, said as he began his speech.
Hakobyan, CEO of GTB Holdings, founder of Armenian Mushroom Company and co-founder of Seaside Startup Summit, spoke during the Alumni Talks session held as part of the YSU Alumni Forum.
In his talk, "University Connections as a Driver of Business Development," he spoke not only about his professional path but also about people and relationships formed during his student years that later became the foundation for successful initiatives.
"The university gives us two things that can never be taken away: knowledge and connections," Hakobyan said.
