Why it matters:
These innovations show that Iranian tech companies can replace costly imports with high-quality domestic alternatives. This not only prevents capital outflow but also makes advanced technologies more accessible to the public, boosting national confidence in the knowledge-based economy.
The big picture:
The “FAR-Iran” exhibition launched with the participation of Vice President Hossein Afshin, innovation fund officials, and dozens of tech companies.
- Out of 650 evaluated products, 80 were selected based on three criteria: regulatory approval, technological advancement, and economic or strategic impact.
- Each product includes a detailed profile outlining its function, approval history, and estimated savings.
- The event aims to consolidate product launches into a unified national showcase, highlighting the full spectrum of Iranian innovation.
- Special support packages are being offered to participating companies to accelerate commercialization, scale production, and build lab infrastructure.
What he's saying:
Hossein Afshin, Vice President for Science and Technology:
“This exhibition is a unified display of Iranian technological capabilities.”
“These products prove our youth can compete with global tech leaders.”
