This platform was created as part of the "Open Data Project for Accurate Visitor Information in Gyumri," a sub-project within the "Mayors for Economic Growth" grant program. The program is funded by the European Union and implemented by UNDP, with this project brought to life by the Gyumri Technology Center (GTC) and Vanadzor Technology Center (VTC) by the Enterprise Incubator Foundation (EIF).
This isn't just a website—it's a tool to make Gyumri more visible, accessible, and welcoming, for visitors and locals alike.
