Web: <; ARMENPAC EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR PARTICIPATES IN BUSINESS FORUM SPONSORED BY NOYAN TAPAN Irving, TX - Noyan Tapan, a cultural organization devoted to integrating Armenian immigrants into American society, recently organized an Armenian Business Forum to promote professional business relationships among regional Armenian-American businesspersons. ARMENPAC's Executive Director Jason Capizzi was invited to address the attendees of this inaugural networking event, which was attended by more than 50 entrepreneurs in the New York City metropolitan area. "I am glad that Noyan Tapan organized this forum and is working to encourage Armenian-American business relationships, which will strengthen the Armenian-American community and ultimately ARMENPAC's advocacy efforts," said ARMENPAC Executive Director Jason Capizzi. The Armenian Business Forum was attended by representatives from a vast array of industry groups including, but not limited to, law, finance, consulting, manufacturing, construction, and international commerce. Speakers at the forum included Souren Israyelyan, Esq., Dinkes & Schwitzer; Ned Boyajian, RainbowFusion Messaging & Design; John Megerian, Megerian New & Antique Decorative Rugs; and, ARMENPAC Executive Director Jason Capizzi, whose remarks focused on the importance of creating professional relationships between Armenian-American businesspersons to foster a more successful Armenian-American community. "By working with each other, you will be helping other Armenian-Americans succeed financially, which will in turn, elevate the overall strength and influence of the Armenian community in this country," said Executive Director Capizzi. A video clip of Executive Director Capizzi's remarks can be viewed at ARM ENPAC demonstrates the importance of networking initiatives, through its electioneering and lobbying efforts, as well as its commitment to the pan-Armenian community by working with Noyan Tapan to directly achieve their common goals. "ARMENPAC has been a positive and influential force in implementing vital objectives for the Armenian-American community in national politics, and Noyan Tapan is ready to assist in mobilizing the Armenian-American community in support of ARMENPAC and its goals such as voter registration," said Noyan Tapan Vice President Tigran Sahakyan. ARMENPAC intends to lend its expertise and experience in support of programs that fortify the pan-Armenian-American community, such as Noyan Tapan's Armenian Business Forum and the annual pan-Armenian Genocide Commemoration in New York City. "Building relationships among each other in support of pan-Armenian initiatives is a simple method in which all Armenian-Americans can make a positive difference in politics and business," said ARMENPAC Co-Chairs Annie Totah and Edgar Hagopian. Noyan Tapan is a non-profit organization that strives to unify the fragmented clusters of Armenian immigrants from all around the world living in the Metro New York and East Coast areas of the United States into an active and vibrant cohesive community; promote and develop Armenian culture and heritage; actively assist in the adjustment process of recent immigrants to the United States by helping them integrate into their new environment; establish close links and work in a spirit of cooperation and mutual help with other existing Armenian organizations and Diaspora groups. Noyan Tapan is currently organizing a second Armenian Business Forum to take place at the Armenian Diocese in New York City on July 27, 2006.
