I am glad to note that BakuTel is becoming increasingly multi-faceted and international every year. It is pleasant to know that Azerbaijan Republic has been the most active of countries which have implemented broadband Internet connection and I am pleased to see Azerbaijan successfully switch from using “black gold” to using “intellectual gold”.

At Microsoft Company we believe that the current modern IT infrastructure available in Azerbaijan alongside with the development of this area is a critical economic development in the world of communication.

Mr. Bill Gates Founder of Microsoft Corporation
I was greatly impressed by the many initiatives taken by the President of Azerbaijan to establish Baku a regional center of communication and information technology and make Azerbaijan a leader in transition to an infocentric society. As an optimist I believe in the bright future of Azerbaijan.
Prof. Lotfi A. Zadeh Professor of Berkeley, University of California, world renowned scientist
Now there are very favorable conditions for close cooperation between Romania and Azerbaijan in ICT field. Each of these countries has strong specialists who can exchange experience helping one another to raise the level of professionalism. Meanwhile, international exhibitions promote the establishment of interstate cooperation. I think BakuTel has fully justified the participants’ expectations and asserted its high status.
Mr. Valerian Vreme Minister of Communication and Information Society of Romania
The exhibition shows that Azerbaijan’s involvement in global ICT projects is growing along with the increasing interest of foreign investors to the ICT sector of Azerbaijan.
