In April, 2009 Mediamax News Agency realized “I Overcome the Crisis” competition among student essays. The partners of the competition were the Armenian Government and the Central bank.

“The 21st century is a century of intellectual activity, and comparative competition advantages will belong to nations, which will manage to reveal inside themselves intellectual resources and analytical skills, striving for science and knowledge, independent definition of problems and ways to solve those. In this context, the initiative of Mediamax establishes the necessary stimuli: young people gain the opportunity to present the results of their reflections at the highest level. I hope that other representatives of the private sector will follow the example of Mediamax and will undertake such serious and important measures”, Armenian Prime Minister stated.
