Enterprise Greece has signed partnerships with International E-Commerce Platforms that ensure higher benefits for the Greek exporters and, at the same time, provides a large number of companies with the training and technical support they need in order to supply their products and services to the e-market, in a direct and effective way.

On September 1st, 2020, Enterprise Greece and eBay, the world leader in e-commerce, announced their partnership aiming at boosting the Greek companies by enhancing their digital transformation and promotion all over the world. Aiming at providing Greek companies with access to 182 million potential buyers in 190 markets worldwide, through the power of technology and together with the global e-commerce platform eBay.com, this partnership has paved the way to new opportunities, showcasing the value of Greek products in the global market and increasing our export footprint.

On September 15th, 2020, as a first phase, Enterprise Greece, in cooperation with eBay, organized an online event, presenting the program for the support of Greek export companies. The program comprised a package of benefits that Enterprise Greece has ensured for the companies selected such as a customised training programme, higher monthly sales and a free subscription to privileged participation. The companies selected in this phase received customised training and support from eBay’s group of special Development Advisors, in order to create their own e-shop on the platform and start selling to international markets, enjoying the privileges and favourable terms of the strategic partnership. The second phase of the program will be addressed to all Greek companies that wish to penetrate international markets, using eBay’s e-commerce platform, regardless of their export activity so far, experience in e-channels for sales, size or operating model.

It is undoubtedly how eCommerce has increasingly become a vital component of business strategy and a solid catalyst for economic development. Here by, we want to share this successful initiative to boost the digital transformation for the regions, one of the big global challenges that we are facing. Find the news here.
