According to the report of the Communication and Information Center in the Vice Presidency of Science, Technology and Knowledge-Based Economy, with the support of Sharif University of Technology and Entekhab Industrial Group, the meta-e-commerce platform started working in the Research Institute of Energy, Water and Environment Sciences and Technologies of Sharif University of Technology.

The technological ecosystem of "Meta-iCommerce" designed and operated by Entekhab Industrial Group has 34 subsystems based on advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence, based on the capacities of the group and business partners in the form of a combination of physical, virtual, and interactive infrastructure.

The main feature of this ecosystem is to create collective synergy on a large scale and beyond all individual subsystems. The customers, suppliers, and commercial and scientific partners of the Entekhab Group live on the platform of this technological ecosystem, and this ecosystem, in addition to meeting all the needs of the inhabitants of this ecosystem, provides them with the possibility of intelligently personalizing services and products.

Ruhollah Dehghani, Vice President of Science, Technology, and Knowledge-Based Economy, in unveiling and visiting various parts of the meta-e-commerce technological ecosystem, pointed out the necessity of designing and defining virtual platforms based on the needs and local conditions of the country and said: artificial intelligence is one of the transformative fields in the future. It is ahead of us and moving in the frontiers of knowledge, to develop and master this technology, is one of the priorities and necessities that the Vice Presidency of Science, Technology and Knowledge-Based Economy has serious plans to realize.

Dehghani continued: I thank God for those who promoted and developed this infrastructure and I hope that the achievements resulting from the link between industry and university will lead to the penetration of technologies into industry on the one hand and create a transformation in the creation of added value and employment while moving in the direction of technological progress in line with its global trend. Understanding that the development of technology and the creation of added value happens with the role of the private sector and the benefit of universities is a valuable approach, and with this forward approach, this place is one of the intellectual manifestations of the innovation of Iran's children in the field of artificial intelligence and digital and electronic economy. And Entekhab group, people, and academics will benefit from the blessings and fruits of this valuable work.
