Tam, a company that works in the field of industrial automation and has had considerable achievements in the fields of Iranian services and products, hosted Sorena Sattari, the vice president for science and technology affairs.

During the visit of different parts of the company, Sattari considered laying the foundation by large industries to enter knowledge-based companies, startups and other innovative ecosystem activists into the field as an important necessity, adding: the infrastructure of the company lays the foundation for development startups. The industry must become used to working with knowledge-based businesses and startups and the private sector must be responsible for entering innovation into the industry.

According to Sattari, the private sector properly recognizes the needs and can provide qualitative, competitive and innovative services and products in society by using innovation in the infrastructure of industries.

“Society’s Welcoming”, the Winning Card for Knowledge-based Companies and Startups According to Sattari, the fact that the society welcomes high-quality, competitive and reliable products and services is a winning card for startups. In this regard, he marked: these features are a winning card for knowledge-based businesses and startups against traditional work that were formerly presented without considering the society’s needs. The successful service-providing startups that have been greatly welcomed in community approve this claim.

The vast and hidden market in the field of building and housing management, utilities, intelligent management, and energy consumption are among the most important areas recognized by the vice president for science and technology affairs as the potential infrastructures of Tam Co. for knowledge-based companies and startups. In this respect, Sattari added: we are ready to provide any support if an appropriate infrastructure is developed for startup-backed service development so that this market can thrive in interaction with the industry and the ecosystem of innovation.

“Innovative startup ideas using infrastructure and capacity of companies like Tom can improve energy consumption patterns and citizenship intelligence”.

Sattari pointed out the government’s role as a facilitator for entering the private sector in the field of investing on innovative ideas, adding: the Vice-Presidency is an infrastructure that supports the development of technologies but does not directly become the owner of projects.

Sattari explained the publication of book of successful startup ideas, mentioning: the foreign and successful examples of startup ideas implemented across the world are published by the Vice-Presidency, each having the capacity to be turned into a business in an indigenous manner. We are prepared to support the models compatible with our country. 

The president of the knowledge-based economy and culture-building technologies development headquarter expressed: Tehran has a potential to become a smart city, which will be realized with role-playing of startups and not the municipality.

Tam Iran Khodro Co. is active in the field of engineering and implementation of industrial and civil projects. From 1175 individuals working in different parts of the company, 419 people are active in the central office of the corporation.
