The first round of the exhibition is being held January 14^th-17^th, 2019 in the international exhibition of Tehran. Activists in the field of apps, computer games, startups and new businesses, developers, accelerators, cell phone operators, fintechs, and content providers are the participants of the event. 

According to this report, 88 million cell phones are currently active in the country. In other words, the diffusion coefficient of cell phones has reached 110%, which has led to the use of apps by more than 31 million active users. These figures are indicative of an extensive market for activists of the app field. This market has responded to more than 40 million users by the end of April 2019. In this regard, the first specialized app exhibition would be a great opportunity to find investment for the growing industry of apps.

A part of the digital economy ecosystem is shown by gathering the activists of the field in this exhibition. The development of this ecosystem is a way to let go of the oil economy.
