Feasibility study : Armenian scientific R&D laboratory

Abstract

The main objective of this feasibility study is to determine whether there is enough critical mass in what remains of the Soviet Armenian scientific R&D sector to reestablish itself today, minimally as a derivative, which has existed up until the early 1990s. I have used a qualitative methodology to determine the availability of professionals in fields which are related to specific R&D sector. The methodology includes targeted interviews, which aims to determine what technologies existed a generation ago in Armenia and if the technical expertise that still exists can still fit the requirements of today's research laboratory requirements.
