EXHIBITOR TESTIMONIALS
This is not my first visit to the BakuTel exhibition, but this time I have come to Azerbaijan with particular pleasure to celebrate the 15th anniversary of this event along with the organizers and permanent participants. Therefore, I am very pleased to see that the BakuTel exhibition has passed the test of time and is carrying on with its important mission every year.

From interview during visit of BakuTel 2009
The BakuTel 2009 exhibition is extremely important and not only because it is an anniversary event. The reason is that it emphasizes the need for ICT for the purpose of infrastructural development of the country. I notice that BakuTel has grown bigger and Azerbaijani companies and joint ventures have started extrapolating their experience and knowledge to the whole region.
