The project aims to create the necessary structures so as to promote entrepreneurship between the two regions that the project focuses on (Thessaloniki and Blagoevgrad) through the use of Information and Communication Technologies. Moreover the project aims at supporting decision making for business development, promoting business cooperation by establishing a broader cross-border cooperation framework, empowering employment through training and enabling labour motivation and promoting the transfer of know-how between the participating partners.The project will develop four ICT platforms (e-Business Networking Platform, e-Recruitment Platform, e-Ombudsman, e-Learning Platform) which will contribute to the enhancement of the competitiveness in the region. The e-business networking platform will operate as a bridge for developing business synergies among enterprises. The e-recruitment platform will be developed on the same principle and will provide advanced functionality to employers giving them the opportunity to determine their needs of human resources. The e-ombudsman platform will improve the services offered by the public institutions while improving the communication and cooperation between the companies and the Public Administration. The e-Learning platform will offer a collaborative training space for business proffessionals. Expected Results: The e-Business Networking platform will operate as a bridge for developing business synergies among enterprises as it will give the opportunity to insert Business profiles as well as products/services offered and through a sophisticated algorithm matching enterprises according to their needs. The e-Recruitment platform will be developed on the same principle and will provide advanced functionality to employers giving them the opportunity to determine their needs of human resources, based on criteria, for every work position and notify the potential candidates automatically. It will match the employers needs with candidates automatically. The e-Ombudsman will be a Digital Businessman Advocate, which will be approached electronically through an internet application for both countries. The main objective of this application will be the mediation between the enterprises and the public institution services subsequently improving the the services offered by the public institutions while improving the communication and cooperation between the companies and the Public Administration. Through the use of the platform, when a Greek or Bulgarian businessman needs speicfic advice, a legal representative (lawyer) will answer their needs. The e-Learning platform will offer a collaborative training space for business professionals. Moreover, the features of the platform will provide opportunities for collaboratively and aggregatively shaping material relevant to the courses building thus on former users knowledge and expertise. The offered material will be on selected topics of interest to business professionals and entrepreneurs, such as project management, ICT for SME's, eBusiness, innovation policies, emerging technologies, knowledge management. The number of partnerships and networks established in this framework will be 4 (4 platforms). The seminars will focus on women participants (35% participations).
