Founded in Yerevan in 2011 by Sam and Sylva Simonian through the Simonian Educational Foundation, the center focuses on equipping youth aged 12 to 18 with highly advanced practical skills. The cutting-edge curriculum covers essential modern disciplines, including computer programming, animation, game development, graphic design, robotics, web development, photography, and filmmaking.
