Jordan’s Zayed University in association with Intel, Sakhr Softwareand Abu Dhabi-based Emerging Technologies recently signed a cooperation agreement to bring voice portal technology to education and research in the Arab world.
The bi-lingual voice portal project agreement aims to create voice portals that allow cross-border access for participation and support to research and development projects among educational institutions. Scholars and researchers from Casablanca to Beirut will be able to have unprecedented scope for participation in pan-Arab research and development projects.
Similar projects to facilitate pan Arab research and development are currently being examined in Lebanon, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Jordan with a view to promote cross border collaboration and enhance the link between the academic and commercial world. — (menareport.com)
