The few information technology facilities exist in Syria are mostly in the capital Damascus or the second largest city Aleppo. in which the highest density of the population and the educational institutions.²⁷

The Syrian government with the aim of enhancing economic development opportunities, attracting further foreign investments and offering a large number of work opportunities, the Syrian government is preparing to construct a number of technological sites in Syria (Special Economic Zones, SEZs). They will be a three SEZs. (this is still only a study) ⁹

1- E-Village: An SEZ campus city offering state-of-the-art services at AI-Tall, 20 kilometres from Damascus.

2- Technopolis: A major IT-based development near Horns, to be structured as an SEZ offering a one-stop-shop for companies and addresses existing shortfalls in the current Syrian investment environment.

3- Allepo: The SEZ outside Aleppo is still at the pre-feasibility stage.
