I saw the video on the large generators being produced in Iran. They also produce motorcycles it seems ? Not very creative though, calling it "Pars" LOL I mean I know Iranians are proud but you can't call everything Pars this or Iran that.
Brands can state where they are from with their brand name alone, without actually having the countries name in the products title. For example, Iran Khodro Company. Why don't they just call their company KHODRO ? Especially when exporting ? I think it's simply a better style of marketing. I mean imagine if Honda was "Japan Honda Company" or Nissan "Japan Nissan Auto Manufacturing" or worst yet, Japan is actually called Nippon by it's own people so imagine "Nippon Toyota Company" LOL
Because you see, if someone is at a car exhibition and they see "Iran Khodro Company" they might think "Iran makes cars ? Can't be good, no way, NEXT" Because Iran doesn't have that reputation as an industrialized producer nation. However if they see the car first, take a look, take a closer look and then investigate where its from, then they will be pleasantly surprise.
It would be the same thing if someone saw a product from ANY country that does not have a international reputable for producing that product. It's all about that first impression and just getting the chance to impress a client before being dismissed. I don't know that's just my opinion.
Anyways, any info on microprocessors being built in Iran ? I know there are a few companies building phones and tablets but I'm guessing they buy the processors from China ?
There was once a company in Iran called "Parse Semiconductor Co" in Iran They were established in 2003 and in 2006 they announced that they had designed and produced a 32 bit micro processor.
I'm not sure if they're still around though or if there are any private companies in Iran mass producing microprocessors. Does anyone know about this topic ?
Of course there is the "Iran Electronic Industries (IEI)", a government owned company, the largest electronic conglomerate in Iran. They produce optics, semiconductors and communication equipment.
In any case this is something that Iran should definitely put emphasis on. When the US under Trump pulled that move and left the nuclear deal, it was a harsh lesson for Iran. Basically Iran has to be able to produce everything, especially essential technology, all from scratch. Relying on foreigners for crucial parts or components is completely unacceptable.
Iran has come a long way but still has some ways to go. In a sense, in the long run, all the sanctions have forced Iran to become extremely productive, industrious and self sufficient. Again though, I'm personally not satisfied despite all the progress. Call me a fanatic but I believe that even the machines used to mass produce Iranian products should be made in Iran.
With the price of labor and raw materials in Iran, Iranian companies should be able to produce any product at such a high standard and low price that it will essentially be too enticing for average Iranian consumers not to buy Iranian products.
