Ameriabank hosted a closing event for the winners of its “My Armenia, My Future” student competition. The goal of the meetup was to summarize the results of the contest, while fostering creation of a unique platform for networking, generation of ideas, and the exchange of experience.
The event brought together the contest winners from both the previous and current years, representatives of leading universities of Armenia and Ameriabank, as well as speakers from various fields.
As a reminder, as a result of the contest held under the “My Armenia, My Future” CSR initiative, 200 students were awarded monthly scholarships of AMD 50,000 for 4 consecutive months during the 2025-2026 academic year.
The event centered around “Point A” — the starting point from which new opportunities and important decisions emerge. During the event, students participated in a panel discussion, interactive activities, and heard success stories.
The panel discussion featured speakers Anna Vardanyants, Head of Human Resources Management Service at Ameriabank, Aram Pakhchanyan, Chairman of the Board of Trustees at Ayb Educational Foundation, Narek Safaryan, Founder and CEO of Renderforest, and Ruben Hayrapetyan, Co-Founder and Director of Matena International School.

The “My Armenia, My Future” contest was first held in 2024, providing scholarships to 160 students from 15 universities across Armenia. To date, a total of 360 students representing 18 public and private universities of Armenia have been recognized as winners of the “My Armenia, My Future” contest and awarded scholarships.
