"New Julfans were primarily known for their role as silk merchants. They monopolized the silk trade for much of the early modern period, but they also dabbled in other things: gems, diamonds, and so forth, but also textiles, and they had an extensive commercial network that went from London, Amsterdam, and Cadiz, all the way to Manila," stated Houri Berberian, Professor of History & Meghrouni Family Presidential Chair in Armenian Studies, University of California, Irvine.

With technology partners Fastexverse and Evolver, Digital Julfa is set to launch its first center in Dubai in June 2025, with subsequent centers in Italy, the Philippines, the Netherlands, Singapore, India, and France.

By consolidating the Armenian Think Tank, the network aims to strengthen global business presence and preserve socio-economic stability. Through the creation of an international partner network to defend the interests of Armenia and Armenians worldwide, Digital Julfa establishes new points of growth in the development of the national economy.
