The project will last ten months and will be conducted in two phases. In the first phase of the project there will be organized educations and workshops about e-business, e-business models and tools, as well as the benefits and challenges of e-business. There will be five educations across the country: Tuzla, Sarajavo, Banja Luka, Doboj and Brčko. We expect at least 50 women entrepreneurs to attend educations/workshops. The goal of the education is that women entrepreneurs gain knowledge about the basic steps of implementation of e-business and the opportunities provided by this way of doing business. All participants in the project will be provided with the handbook of e-business, which is created by the project team of experienced professionals and teachers of IPI Academy Tuzla.
In the second phase of the project, the 10 companies owned and/or managed by women will be selected and each company will have mentors for implementing and improving e-business. Mentors will estimate whether companies are already using e-business in their daily business activities and processes and how can they improve it, and they will also implement simple e-business tools to improve business activities of these 10 companies. The companies will be provided with a short-term, medium-term and long-term action plan that will ensure the further development of business through the application of e-business.
