And why is European industry gradually losing its competitiveness?<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Artur Gevorkyan spoke to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/export.sk\/en\/artur-gevorkyan-it-wasnt-a-brilliant-plan-but-the-will-to-survive\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EXPORT.SK<\/a><\/strong>, he shared his experiences from more than 30 years in business. He discussed the difficult early days, the importance of in-house development, and the challenges facing European industry today.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">From a small workshop to global markets<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company\u2019s early days were not easy. Without a solid financial foundation or an established presence in international markets, it had to seek out opportunities where it could offer technological solutions without direct competition. As Artur Gevorkyan recalls: <strong>\u201cIt wasn\u2019t some brilliant plan, just a desire to survive.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the course of more than 30 years, however, the small workshop has grown into an international technology company whose products are now used around the world.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In-house development as the foundation for long-term growth<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In-house research and development plays a significant role in the company\u2019s growth. <strong>\u201cDevelopment is the very foundation of a company\u2019s growth, and nothing is more important,\u201d<\/strong> he emphasizes. It is precisely the ability to deliver customized technological solutions that enables the company to respond to customer needs and build long-term partnerships with them.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, GEVORKYAN develops more than 200 new products annually and acts not only as a supplier but also as a development partner on many projects.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New Opportunities and the Future of European Industry<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other topics include the acquisition of a manufacturing plant in Italy, the expansion of activities in the aerospace and defense industries, and the more efficient use of existing production capacities.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also focuses on the challenging conditions facing European industry today. He considers high energy prices to be one of the biggest obstacles to its competitiveness. <strong>\u201cThe biggest problem for European industry, when we\u2019re really talking about industry and not just some kind of assembly line work is the price of energy,\u201d<\/strong> he points out. It is precisely these high production costs that are putting pressure on European companies and affecting their ability to compete with firms from the U.S. and Asia.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What lies behind more than 30 years of building the GEVORKYAN company, and what does the future hold for European industry?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read the full interview on EXPORT.SK:<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-export-sk wp-block-embed-export-sk\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"PzbuIkyffn\"><a href=\"https:\/\/export.sk\/en\/artur-gevorkyan-it-wasnt-a-brilliant-plan-but-the-will-to-survive\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Artur Gevorkyan: It wasn\u2019t a brilliant plan, but the will to survive<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"\u201cArtur Gevorkyan: It wasn\u2019t a brilliant plan, but the will to survive\u201d \u2014 EXPORT.SK\" src=\"https:\/\/export.sk\/en\/artur-gevorkyan-it-wasnt-a-brilliant-plan-but-the-will-to-survive\/embed\/#?secret=fkXwZbCuAh#?secret=PzbuIkyffn\" data-secret=\"PzbuIkyffn\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How did a small workshop with no money and no infrastructure become a company that now supplies its products to more than 30 countries around the world?
